I can add that this is different for the .be/Europe business cards.

Which uses the following measurements:
Bleed Margin: 88mm x 58mm
Document Trim Size 85 x 55mm

For me this was really annoying as I had to change the design accordingly as it wouldn't fit for the size of the Belgium website. So for those who're also facing this problem, I hope this measurements will help!

Vista Print does not use normal bleed sizes. They use half the normal bleed dimensions. Normal bleed sizes are as follows.

In western Europe your standard card size is 85 mm x 55 mm, with a bleed size of 3 mm all around.

A bleed size of 3 mm means a dimension that is +6 mm both horizontal and vertical from the finished size. If your finished size is 85 mm x 55 mm then your bleed size is 91 mm x 61 mm.

In North America your standard card size is 3.5 inches x 2 inches, with a bleed of 1/8 of an inch all around.

A bleed size of 1/8 inch means a dimension that is +1/4 of an inch both horizontal and vertical from the finished size. If your finished size is 3.5 inches x 2 inches then your bleed size is 3.75 inches x 2.25 inches.

Vista print are 1.5 mm and 1/16 inch respectively.
