insert card

Badge the reader

An insert card is a printed card placed inside a magazine, book, or package—typically an advertisement, subscription offer, or product information.

Magazine insert cards often fall out when you flip through the pages: I hate when those subscription insert cards litter the floor.

The term also refers to cards packaged with trading card games or collectibles.
