Custom Lighters

Custom Lighters: The Cheapest Daily Impressions in the Industry

Custom lighters are a great way to get your brand out there - they're lighters that have your logo or design printed or engraved on them. We sell them wholesale to smoke shops, dispensaries, and other retailers. They're really popular because people actually use them all the time. Unlike other promotional products that just get thrown in a drawer, custom lighters are something that people carry with them and use regularly. Whether it's at a party, a bar, or just a casual get-together, your custom lighter is going to be seen by lots of people. And every time someone uses it, borrows it, or leaves it behind, your brand is getting exposed to someone new. It's a simple but effective way to get your brand noticed and build recognition. Plus, custom lighters are something that people will use over and over again, so your brand will be getting repeated exposure.

You can get plastic promotional lighters for as low as $1.00 each. This is a great deal because it works out to be really cheap per impression - even cheaper than most other things you can put your logo on.

Custom BIC Lighters — The Real Thing

BIC is a name that's known all over the world, and that's a big plus for you. When someone pulls out a custom BIC lighter with your logo on it, they already have faith in the product before they even use it. Our lighters are the real deal - genuine BIC products from official distributors, with all the features you'd expect, like a child-resistant mechanism, a flame that's always consistent, and months of fuel. They're not just cheap knockoffs that look like BIC lighters, but actually work like them.

We can print your designs in two different ways. If you want to include photos, gradients, or complex artwork, our full-color digital printing is the way to go. For example, you can get custom BIC lighters with pictures of your storefront, mascot, or strain art - and it's actually pretty affordable, starting at $2.50 per unit. On the other hand, if you've got a bold, clean logo that you want to stand out, single-color screen printing might be a better choice. This option starts at $3.00 per unit and is great for designs where crispness is more important than a wide range of colors. We also offer light and dark body colors, and some configurations even allow for wrap-around designs. Just one thing to keep in mind: because of carrier regulations, BIC brand lighters can only be shipped to addresses in the US.

Buying custom BIC lighters in bulk is where the pricing gets interesting — per-unit cost drops hard from the 500-unit tier up, which is why dispensaries run them as ongoing programs rather than one-off orders.

Plastic Promotional Lighters — Volume on a Budget

If you're looking for a way to promote your brand at a festival, consider getting a thousand custom lighters. You can find plastic lighters for as low as $1 per unit, which is a great deal. They may not be from a well-known brand like BIC, but they get the job done. Plus, they come in transparent or solid colors, which makes them perfect for screen-printing your logo. Many dispensaries use these lighters as freebies at the counter or throw them in with purchases. Event organizers also buy them in bulk to give out to attendees.

When it comes to finding custom lighters with no minimum order, you're in luck. This category is really flexible, so you can order small quantities without any issues. Unlike custom-printed papers or packaging, where small orders can be a problem, custom lighters are a lot more forgiving. You can get what you need, even if it's just a few pieces.

Engraved Metal Lighters — The Ones Customers Keep

Metal lighters are in a whole different league - they're refillable, heavy, and built to last. When you get a laser-engraved logo on stainless steel, it's not just going to wear off after a month of being carried around in your pocket. The mark is literally burned into the surface, so it's there to stay. If you've been considering custom Zippo lighters, our stainless steel refillable lighters are a great alternative, and they're available at wholesale prices - they've got real weight to them, the engraving is deep, and they come gift-box ready. Then there's the DuoNova, which starts at $27.50 and offers both soft-flame and torch modes in one handy device. This is really useful for people who smoke both cigarettes and cigars, or for those who dab - it's like having two lighters in one.

Custom engraved lighters work as retail SKUs, VIP gifts, and the kind of branded merchandise that makes a cannabis brand look like it intends to be around in ten years.

Torch & Jet Flame Lighters

Torch lighters are really useful because they make a strong, focused flame that doesn't go out in the wind. This is great for people who smoke cigars, as it helps them get an even toast. It's also good for people who use concentrates, as it helps them heat up quartz and titanium. If you have customers who like these things, a custom torch lighter can be a really practical product, not just something you give away. You can get a basic one, like the Nova Jet Flame, for as low as $9.00, or you can get a fancier metal one, like the Torchit Compact, for $27.50. For places where people go to smoke cigars, custom lighters go well with ceramic ashtrays, and you can even order them together with your brand on them. This can be a nice thing to have, and it's not too expensive. The custom lighters are a good idea because they can help your customers, and they can also help your business by having your brand on them.

Lighter Comparison

How to Pick

Plastic when volume and cost are the priority — events, grand openings, bag stuffers. BIC when you want customers to keep the lighter and think well of you for it. Metal for retail shelves, VIP programs, and gift sets. Torch for dispensaries and tobacconists whose customers know exactly why they want one. Custom printed lighters of every type get a free digital mockup before production, so you see the artwork on the actual body before spending anything.

Wholesale Custom Lighters Pricing

We offer our lighters at wholesale prices, which means the more you buy, the less you pay per unit. If you're just starting out, our starter orders are a great way to test the waters - you can get 100 to 499 units and still get to customize them just the way you want. As you move up to our standard orders, which are between 500 and 2,499 units, you'll notice the price per unit gets even better, especially if you're looking for custom BIC lighters in bulk. But if you're looking to make a big impact, our volume orders are the way to go - with 2,500 units or more, you'll get the best prices, plus the flexibility to choose from a range of body colors and special configurations, making it perfect for big chains, distributors, and large-scale campaigns.

When it comes to ordering custom lighters, the minimum quantity you need to buy varies depending on the type of lighter. For plastic promotional lighters, you usually have to buy at least 250 to 500 units. BIC lighters are a bit more flexible, with a minimum order quantity of around 150 to 300. But if you want premium metal lighters, you can get away with ordering as few as 25 to 50 units, because each one costs more to make. So, if you only need a small number of custom lighters, metal is probably your best bet.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the minimum order for custom lighters?

Plastic starts around 250–500 units, BIC around 150–300, and metal lighters as low as 25–50. Ask us about the specific model and we'll confirm.

Are your BIC lighters authentic?

Yes — genuine BIC through official distribution, with the real child-resistant mechanism and consistent ignition. No generic substitutes.

How durable is the printing?

The designs on screens and digital prints are made to be long-lasting, so they won't fade away quickly. When it comes to laser engraving on metal, it's a whole different story - the logo is actually cut into the surface, making it a permanent part of the material. This means that there's no risk of it getting scratched off, because it's not just sitting on top of the surface, it's actually become a part of it.

Can you ship lighters everywhere?

We only ship BIC brand lighters to addresses in the US. For other types of lighters, we can ship to more places, but the shipping company we use might have some rules, so please let us know where you want it sent before you order and we'll let you know if it's okay.

Soft flame or torch — what's the difference?

Soft flame is the traditional yellow flame, fine for cigarettes and indoor use. A torch forces butane through a nozzle for a hot, wind-resistant blue flame — what cigar smokers and concentrate users actually need.

Can I get samples first?

We can provide you with unbranded samples to test the quality, and if you'd like, we can also offer pre-production samples with your logo, though that would come at an extra cost.

How do customers refill metal lighters?

Quality refined butane, filled through the valve on the bottom: purge the old gas, fill in short 3–5 second bursts, wait a few minutes before lighting.
