To make this tool available to everyone, ClickCard offers free templates in its app, which can be easily customized by the user. The free digital card templates allow you to integrate contact data, such as email, phone, social networks and address. In addition, you can edit photos, backgrounds and other graphic elements unique to each template.

Creating a free digital business card: Step by Step in the ClickCard App

Creating a digital business card in the ClickCard app comes down to 5 steps. They are:

  1. Templates: where the user chooses the card template they want to use;

  2. Photo: where the user can upload a profile image of themselves or their company;

  3. Info: the space where the user fills in their contact information, such as email, name, position, website;

  4. Social: the field where the professional chooses and adds their social networks;

  5. Design: the step where the user can edit the graphic elements of the chosen template, such as background, icon colors and images.

After these steps, the user will already have their digital business card ready for viewing, editing or sharing.

But for a better understanding, we will go through the Creator step by step.

Keep reading to learn the particularities of each one.

1st Step: choosing personalized digital business card templates in the ClickCard App

When you open the ClickCard Creator, you will have access to a wide variety of pre-formatted templates. Customize the one you prefer according to your profile.

In this step, you will find several free templates, each one carefully designed with specific information.

Each template offers a unique combination of colors, icons, typography and other graphic elements. So that you have a personalized card that suits your brand, just choose the right template and edit it accordingly.

The idea is to give you the opportunity to have an exclusive digital business card, even in the free version.

2nd Step: add photo and logo to the digital business card

After choosing a digital business card template and selecting it, the next step is the photo step. At this point, you have the option to upload an image of yourself or your company logo.

To upload the photo, it is important to allow the app access to your phone's media. This way, you can select an image directly from your device's gallery or search for the logo in the app's search field.

The field for the image has a ratio of 1080x1080 pixels. It lets you make the cuts or rotations needed to fit it into the available space on the digital business card. This way, you can make sure the photo is perfectly aligned and highlighted.

Adding a photo to your digital business card gives it a personal and professional touch, allowing people to identify you visually. Do not miss the opportunity to convey an impactful image through this essential step.

3rd Step: Filling in Contact Information

After uploading your selected image, it is time for the contact information you want to include on your digital business card.

In this step, you can add your name, position, mobile number, email address and website.

There are two ways to fill this in:

The first is to manually enter your information in each corresponding field, accessing each one individually.

The information added in this section is the contact information that will be visible on your digital card.

It is essential so that people can contact you easily and directly when they access your card.

Be sure to provide accurate and up to date information. These details will be the main form of contact for those who access your digital card.

Make sure your contacts can find you easily and start productive conversations based on the information provided.

4th Step: adding Social Networks

In this step, you will have the opportunity to select the social networks you want to display on your digital business card. We have six popular options available: Facebook, LinkedIn, WhatsApp, Instagram, Twitter and Youtube.

To fill in the information correctly, just enter the link to your profile on the desired social networks in the corresponding fields.

Check that the links are correct to ensure that people can find and connect with you on their preferred platforms.

It is worth noting that to share the LinkedIn profile link, you need to follow a few additional steps:

1. Open your profile in the LinkedIn app and click the "three dots" next to the "Add section" button.

2. Then a sharing option called "Share profile via URL" will appear. Select this option and copy the generated link text.

This is the link you should add to the LinkedIn field when selecting it as a social network for your card.

Take advantage of this step to give your contacts direct access to your social networks. This lets them connect and follow your work, projects and updates across various online platforms.

Step 5: Background

In step 5 of the Creator, the user can add a background to their digital business card.

They can do this in three ways: selecting an image from our database, uploading an image from their device to the app, or choosing a solid color they like.
