Avendale Velvet Touch Stylus Gel Pen

A stylus gel pen is a writing instrument that pairs a gel ink tip on one end with a conductive rubber stylus tip on the other, so one tool handles both paper notes and touchscreen input. The stylus registers on capacitive phone and tablet screens, letting users tap, scroll, and sign without smudging the glass. Gel ink lays down a darker, smoother line with less pressure than standard ballpoint ink.

Gel pens write with water-based gel ink that produces a darker, more saturated line with less hand pressure than oil-based ballpoint ink. Ballpoint ink dries faster and usually costs less per unit, while gel ink gives a smoother writing feel that recipients tend to keep in daily rotation longer. For giveaways aimed at everyday desk use, the smoother stroke is the main trade-up over a standard ballpoint.

The lowest published order quantity for the Avendale Velvet Touch Stylus Gel Pen is 250 pens. Per-unit pricing then steps down at 500, 1,000, 2,500, and 5,000 pieces, so larger runs cost less per pen.

The Avendale Velvet Touch Stylus Gel Pen runs from $2.36 per unit at 250 pieces down to $1.35 per unit at 5,000 pieces, with price breaks at 500 pieces ($2.05), 1,000 pieces ($1.78), and 2,500 pieces ($1.55). A $40 setup charge applies to new orders, and re-orders pay a reduced $25 setup. Order quantity and the one-time setup fee are the main factors that change the final per-pen cost.

Stylus gel pens work best at events where attendees both write and use mobile devices: technology conferences, healthcare and pharmacy check-ins, banking and insurance client meetings, university orientations, real estate closings, and hotel front desks. Because recipients can use the stylus tip on a phone between sessions, the pen stays in active use longer than a paper-only giveaway.

The pen is manufactured in China. No FDA, Prop 65, or other safety certifications are published for this product, which is typical for standard promotional writing instruments. Buyers who need compliance documentation for a specific program should request it before placing an order.

Keep the cap on whenever the pen is not in use, because gel ink dries out faster than ballpoint ink when the tip stays exposed. Wipe the rubber stylus tip with a dry, lint-free cloth to keep it responsive on touchscreens. Avoid cleaning the rubberized barrel with solvents, which can dull the soft-touch coating and the printed logo.
