The Professional Guide to Thermal Credit Card Paper & Debit Rolls: Sizes, Compatibility & Safety
What is the standard size for thermal credit card paper? The most common size for thermal credit card rolls and thermal debit rolls in Canada is 2.25 inches x 50 feet (2 1/4" x 50'). These rolls are designed to fit nearly all handheld payment terminals, including those from Moneris, Clover, and Square. To ensure business safety and compliance, it is essential to use BPA-free thermal paper that provides sharp print clarity and protects the internal thermal print head of your device.
Why Your Business Needs High-Quality Thermal Debit Rolls
In a busy retail or restaurant environment, your payment terminal is the heart of your cash flow. Using sub-standard thermal credit card paper can lead to faded receipts, paper jams, and even long-term damage to your terminal's hardware.
At MilaMima, we specialize in factory-direct thermal credit card rolls that meet the rigorous demands of Canadian merchants. Our rolls are precision-cut to ensure a smooth feed every time you process a transaction.

BPA-Free: Protecting Your Staff and Customers
As a leading supplier of thermal paper in Canada, MilaMima is committed to safety.

Our entire line of thermal debit rolls is 100% BPA-free, providing peace of mind for your cashiers and a safer touch for your customers.
FAQ: Thermal Credit Card Paper Rolls
Q: Can I use a 2 1/4" x 85' roll in my handheld debit machine?
A: Usually not. While the width is the same, an 85' roll is too thick for the paper compartment of mobile terminals. We recommend the 50' or 60' lengths for handheld units.
Q: How can I tell if a debit roll is thermal paper?
A: Thermal paper has a smooth, slightly glossy side. If you scratch it quickly with a fingernail and it leaves a black mark, it is thermal paper.
Q: Does MilaMima offer bulk discounts for credit card paper?
A: Yes! We offer factory-direct pricing on cases of 50 and 100 rolls, with fast, cost-effective shipping across Canada via our logistics partners.
