Question 1

What is the standard business card size?

Accepted Answer

The standard business card size in the US and Canada is 3.5 x 2 inches (89 x 51 mm). In Europe, the standard is 85 x 55 mm (3.346 x 2.165 inches). In Japan, it is 91 x 55 mm. Our generator creates cards at the US standard ratio, which is widely accepted worldwide.

Question 2

What information should be on a business card?

Accepted Answer

Essential information includes: your full name, job title or role, company name, phone number, and email address. Optional but recommended: website URL, physical address (especially for brick-and-mortar businesses), and social media handles relevant to your profession. Keep it clean — less is more. The card should be easy to read at a glance.

Question 3

What makes a good business card design?

Accepted Answer

A good business card is clean, legible, and memorable. Use no more than 2 fonts, ensure text is large enough to read easily (minimum 8pt for print), use high contrast between text and background, and include plenty of white space. A subtle accent color can make your card stand out without being overwhelming. Avoid clutter — you have a small space.

Question 4

Can I print the business cards I create here?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Download your card as a high-resolution PNG image and upload it to any printing service. Popular options include Vistaprint, Moo, Canva Print, and local print shops. For best results, request 300 DPI printing and choose a quality cardstock (at least 14pt or 350gsm). Some printers may require vector formats — in that case, our PNG can serve as a design reference.

Question 5

Should I include social media on my business card?

Accepted Answer

Only include social media handles that are relevant to your professional brand. For most professionals, LinkedIn is the safest choice. Creatives might include Instagram or Behance. Avoid personal social media unless your brand is built around it. Including too many handles clutters the card. Consider adding a QR code that links to your online profile instead.

Question 6

Is this business card generator really free?

Accepted Answer

Yes, 100% free with no watermarks, no signup, and no hidden fees. Your data never leaves your browser — the card is generated and downloaded entirely on your device. You can create as many cards as you like.
