Animal shapes
Custom-shaped animals in bright enamel — the medal doubles as the reason kids sign up next year.
CUSTOM RACE MEDALS
Kids Race Medals & Virtual Race Medals
Lightweight, budget-friendly designs for the next generation of finishers.
A seven-year-old does not care about die-cast thickness — they care that the medal is shiny, colorful, and theirs. Our kids line is lighter, rounder-edged, and safety-tested, with shorter ribbons sized for small necks and bright enamel that survives being worn to school for a week.
The same line serves virtual races, where medals ship to finishers instead of a finish chute. We offer individual poly-bagging with backing cards and direct-mail-ready packaging so your fulfillment is a label run, not a stuffing party.

- Weight

VOLUME PRICING
Kids & Virtual pricing
Per-unit pricing for our standard spec. Proofs and two edit rounds are included at every tier.
| Quantity | Price per unit |
|---|---|
| 100–249 | $2.50 |
| 250–499 | $2.15 |
| 500–999 | $1.85 |
| 1,000+ | $1.55 |
Options beyond the standard spec are itemized in your quote — and we beat any written competitor quote by up to 10%. See the full race medal pricing guide.
Pricing is by size, not by sport: a 3-inch medal runs about $2.50 each at 100 units for any race — larger sizes slightly more, smaller sizes less, and same-size medals start at the same price. Design and proofs are quoted with your order. New designs carry a one-time mold fee (generally around $100, depending on size); reorders of the same design never pay it again. Specialty builds — spinners, moving parts, oversized cutouts — can add to the per-medal cost.

Kids & Virtual questions
Are your kids medals safe for young children?
Yes — rounded edges, kid-safe plating and enamel, and shorter ribbon cuts sized for children. We recommend adult supervision for kids under three, as with any medal.
Can you ship virtual race medals directly to participants?
We prepare medals mailer-ready (poly-bagged with backing cards) and ship them in bulk to you or your fulfillment house. Each medal drops straight into a standard padded envelope.
What do virtual race medals cost compared to in-person medals?
The medals themselves price the same — from $1.55 at volume on this line. The difference is packaging: mailer-ready prep adds a small per-unit cost that we itemize in your quote.
