What this tool does and who it is for

Type a name, title, company, email, phone, website and address and the page lays out business cards at the US standard 3.5 by 2 inches. The print button produces a Letter-size sheet of 10 cards (2 columns by 5 rows) with light dashed cut guides, ready for plain or perforated card stock.

You choose a light or dark style and an accent color. You can upload your own logo; with no logo, an optional badge shows the initials of your company or name. A QR code appears only if you turn it on and enough information is filled in. It is a real code made in your browser, for your website, a contact card (vCard) or custom text.

Print at 100% scale (not fit to page) and scan a printed card before ordering a run.

Official Formula / Technical Standard

Standard US Business Card Dimensions: 3.5 inches × 2.0 inches (1050 × 600 pixels at 300 DPI print resolution). Maintain 1/8-inch (3mm) safe inner margin.

When people use it

Printing a quick batch on card stock

Load perforated card stock, print the sheet at 100% scale and tear off ten cards. Good for events or a first run before you order professional ones.

Previewing contact details on a card

See how your name, title and email fit before you commit to a printer's template. Long job titles and email addresses are the usual trouble spots.

Adding a scannable link

Turn on the QR code for your website or a vCard so people can save your contact from their phone.

Mockup for a client or teammate

Share a screenshot to get feedback on wording, such as whether to include a direct phone number.

Notes for US users

  • The standard US business card is 3.5 by 2 inches. Commercial printers also ask for bleed (artwork extending past the cut line), which this tool does not add, so use it for office printing or as a wording mockup.
  • For US phone numbers, pick one format such as (512) 555-0100 and use it everywhere.
  • Some states require a license number on advertising for contractors and real estate agents. Check your own rules.

Limits and what to double-check

  • •Single-sided, one design per sheet, no bleed and no crop marks beyond the light cut guides. Printer margins differ, so check one sheet against your card stock first.
  • •Cards are exactly 3.5 by 2 inches only if your browser prints at 100% scale. Measure the result.
  • •Logo files are used as-is. A very large image is only shrunk on screen.

Expert Best Practices & Common Pitfalls

Recommended Best Practices

  • •Keep text legible with high contrast (minimum 10pt font for name and 8pt for secondary contact details).
  • •Include only primary direct contact channels (email, mobile phone, and top-level domain).
  • •Use high-quality heavy paper stock (such as 16pt / 350gsm cardstock) when sending your generated card to physical print.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

  • •Crowding the 3.5" × 2" area with excessive social media handles, long addresses, or redundant text.
  • •Placing critical text too close to outer edges where print cutting can clip letters.
  • •Using low-contrast color combinations that make contact information difficult to read in dim lighting.

Frequently Asked Questions

What size does this business card maker produce?▼

It formats standard US business cards measuring 3.5 inches wide by 2.0 inches tall, the universal standard for card holders and wallet slots.

Can I print my cards on standard cardstock?▼

Yes. Click 'Print Cards' to print directly to your desktop printer or save to PDF for professional print shops.

Is my contact information kept private?▼

Yes. All card rendering executes locally on your device with zero server storage.

What size is the card?▼

3.5 by 2 inches, the standard US size. The sheet puts 10 on a US Letter page, two across and five down. Choose 100 percent or actual size in the print dialog and measure the result.

Does the QR code really work?▼

Yes, it is generated in your browser from the content you choose. It only appears when there is content to encode. Scan a printed card with your phone before ordering a run, since size and print quality affect scanning.

Why is there no logo or badge on my card?▼

The tool never adds a made-up logo. Upload your own image, or leave the initials badge on to show the initials of your company name (or your name if the company is blank).

What should I put on a business card?▼

Your name, title, company, a phone number and an email address. A website is optional. Leave off anything you do not want strangers to have, such as a home address.

Should I use this for a big print order?▼

Use it to settle your wording, then ask the printer for their template, which will specify bleed, safe margins, color mode and file format.
