Custom 4" x 7" Memo Pads by Captain Notepad
Printed in the USA · Based in Denver, Colorado since 2000
A 4" x 7" memo pad gives you a little more than the usual memo: a sheet wide enough for your full logo and contact details, and tall enough for a real list underneath. We print your design in full color on every sheet, so each memo that leaves the pad carries your name.
Order as few as 12 pads, with 25 or 50 sheets per pad. Free design help and up to 3 free proofs are included, with no setup fees. It's one of our 34 standard notepad sizes.
Included With Every Memo Pad Order
What Makes a Good Memo Pad
A memo pad has a simple job: catch a note fast and let it be torn off and handed over. That means a sheet that's easy to write on, a pad that stays flat on a desk, and a layout that doesn't crowd the writing space. On a 4" x 7" sheet, a logo and phone number can take the top inch or two and still leave plenty of lined room below.
The 4-inch width is roomy enough for a few words per line without feeling cramped, and the 7-inch height fits a short list, a phone message with a call-back number, or notes from a quick meeting.
Custom Memo Pad Layouts
The photos on this page show three different approaches:
- Real estate: the Maple Street Realty pad prints a maple-leaf logo, a tagline and a phone number at the top, a short Notes area, and a house illustration along the bottom.
- Boutique and lifestyle brands: the Ironwood & Sage pads use a small logo and a Notes heading over a column of checkboxes, with a soft leaf illustration.
- Schools and colleges: the higher education pad keeps the logo at the top and the phone number and website at the bottom, with open space between.
Other layouts that suit this size: a "While You Were Out" phone message form, a meeting notes template with date and attendees lines, or a simple ruled page under your logo. Start from our ready-made 4″ × 7″ designs or upload your own artwork.
Memo Pads for Offices, Schools and Agents
Memo pads custom printed with a logo are everyday tools that also carry a brand. An office can stock one on every desk for phone messages. A school or college office can hand them out at orientation or keep them at the front desk. A real estate agent can include one in a listing packet; see our real estate notepad designs for themed ideas. For more desk supplies, browse our custom letterheads.
Memo Pad Stationery With Your Name
Not every memo pad needs a logo. Personal memo pad stationery with a name, a monogram or "From the desk of…" makes a thoughtful gift for a teacher, a new graduate or a family member who still writes notes by hand. Choose a border, a color and a font with our designer, and order as few as 12 pads.
Glued Edge, Not Sticky Notes
Our memo pads are glued along one edge onto a chipboard backer. Each sheet tears off cleanly, but the sheets have no adhesive, so they don't stick to a monitor. If you want repositionable notes, see our custom sticky notepads and Post-it® Brand custom sticky notes. For a pad that hangs on the fridge, attached magnetic backing is available by phone, or see our magnetic notepads. Prefer bound pages? Our 4″ × 7″ spiral bound pocket notebook keeps notes together.

Memo Pad FAQs: 4" x 7" Custom Memo Pads
What is a memo pad, and where does a 4 x 7 fit in?
A memo pad is a small stack of loose sheets glued along one edge so each note tears off on its own. They're used for quick notes, phone messages and reminders. Most memo pads are between 3 and 5 inches wide; a 4″ × 7″ memo pad sits at the larger end, with room for a full logo and a good number of writing lines.
What can a 4 x 7 memo pad be used for?
Phone messages, meeting notes, short to-do lists, directions, a note left on a colleague's desk or a reminder clipped to a file. A 4″ × 7″ sheet is wide enough for a few words per line and tall enough for a short list, so one pad covers most everyday notes.
What paper is used for memo pads?
Ours print on 50 lb. bright white text paper as standard, with 60 lb. (Better) and 70 lb. (Premium) upgrades in the price calculator. The sheets are glued at one edge onto a chipboard backer that keeps the pad stiff.
Is a memo pad sticky?
Not ours. The sheets are glued together along one edge so they tear off cleanly, but there's no adhesive on the back of each sheet, so a torn-off note won't stick to a screen or a wall. For notes that stick, see our custom sticky notepads and Post-it® Brand custom sticky notes.
How is a custom memo pad printed and padded?
We print your design in full color on each sheet, stack the sheets into pads of 25 or 50, add a chipboard backer and apply padding glue along one edge. Before any of that, you approve a digital proof, so you see exactly what will print.
Is 4 x 7 a common memo pad size?
It's a standard size for us and one of our 34 standard notepad sizes. The most familiar memo pad sizes are smaller, such as the 3″ × 5″ and 4″ × 6″. A 4″ × 7″ suits people who want a memo pad with a little more height for lists.
Can I print memo pad stationery with my name?
Yes. Personal memo pad stationery can carry a name, a monogram or a family name with a simple border, and it makes a good gift. Our designer can set it up at no charge, and the calculator starts at 12 pads, so a small personal order is easy.
How much does a custom memo pad cost?
It depends on quantity, sheet count, paper and options. The price calculator on this page shows your exact total as you choose. There are no setup or artwork fees, and design help and up to 3 proofs are free.
How does a 4 x 7 memo pad compare with a 3 x 4 or a 5 x 5?
The 3″ × 4″ small memo pad is the compact choice for a pocket or a phone desk. The 5″ × 5″ square memo pad is a square sheet for desks and counters. The 4″ × 7″ is taller and narrower than the square, so it holds a logo plus a list. You can order from 12 pads.
How fast can I get custom memo pads?
Standard production is 8–10 business days after you approve your proof, plus shipping. If you need them sooner, choose the 5-business-day rush in the price calculator and rush shipping at checkout.
