What size are the exported business cards?

The standard US/UK business card size of 3.5 x 2 inches. PNGs export at 1050 x 600 pixels, which is exactly 300 DPI, the resolution most print shops ask for. The PDF is laid out at the physical 3.5 x 2 inch size with the front on page one and the back on page two.

Can I design both the front and the back?

Yes. Use the Front and Back toggle above the preview to switch sides. The front carries your name, role and contact block; the back shows a logo or monogram emblem, the company name and optional contact details. Both sides export together in the PDF and with the "Both sides PNG" button.

Is my data uploaded anywhere?

No. The designer is 100 percent client-side. Your text, colours and logo never leave the browser, and the card is drawn on an HTML canvas locally. Your work is auto-saved to this browser's local storage so it is still there when you come back.

Can I add my own logo?

Yes. Upload a PNG, JPG or SVG and it is placed on the front (top-right) and used as the centre emblem on the back. If you do not upload a logo, the back automatically generates a clean monogram from your company or name.

How do I send the file to a print shop?

Most printers accept a PDF or a 300 DPI PNG. Export the PDF for a single file with both sides, or export the front and back PNGs separately if your printer prefers individual images. Ask your printer whether they need bleed; this tool exports edge-to-edge artwork at the trimmed card size.

Can I match my exact brand colours?

Yes. After choosing a template you can override the background, panel, text, accent and muted-text colours with the colour pickers, and pick from five font families. Enter your brand hex values to match an existing identity precisely.

Business Card Designer

The Business Card Designer is a free, in-browser business card maker that produces a polished, two-sided card and exports it as a print-ready PNG and PDF. It is built for freelancers, small businesses, founders and anyone who needs a professional card without opening heavyweight design software or paying a template marketplace. You pick a starting template, type your contact details, drop in a logo, tune the colours to your brand, and download files you can send straight to a print shop or attach to an email signature.

Unlike most online card makers, nothing here is uploaded. The card is rendered locally on an HTML canvas, your work is auto-saved to this browser, and every export — PNG or PDF — is generated entirely on your device. That makes it fast, private, and usable offline once the page has loaded.

How it works

The tool models the standard 3.5 x 2 inch business card. On screen you see a live preview of whichever side is selected. Six templates — Midnight, Ivory, Emerald, Blueprint, Rose and Carbon — set a coordinated palette, font and layout, and each is fully editable afterward. The front shows your name with an accent underline, your job title and company, an optional italic tagline, and a contact block with small icon chips for phone, email and website. The back presents a centred emblem panel: your uploaded logo, or an auto-generated monogram derived from your company or name, followed by the company name, tagline and an optional reverse-side contact list including your postal address.

When you export, the card is re-drawn to a full-resolution offscreen canvas. PNG export produces a 1050 x 600 image — exactly 300 DPI at card size — for the front, the back, or both at once. PDF export uses jspdf to build a two-page document at the true physical size, front on page one and back on page two, so a print shop receives correct dimensions without any scaling guesswork. Because state lives in localStorage, you can close the tab and return to exactly where you left off.

Example

Suppose you are a product designer at Northwind Studio. Start from the Midnight template for a dark, modern look, type your name, role and the tagline Interfaces that earn trust., then add your phone, email and northwind.studio as the website. Upload your studio logo and it appears top-right on the front and as the centre emblem on the back. Nudge the accent colour to your brand blue with the colour picker, switch the font to Helvetica, and toggle Uppercase name on. Hit Download PDF and you get a clean two-page file: northwind-card.pdf, front and back, ready for a 300 DPI print run — or grab alex-rivera-front.png for your email footer. No account, no upload, no watermark.
