Business card maker

Design a card that looks made by a designer, with a QR that saves your contact in one scan. Print-ready PDF, a home-print sheet or just the QR. Free, no sign-up, and it all happens in your browser.

step 1

What are you making?

You can change this later without losing your details.

step 2

Pick a template

Ten hand-tuned designs, two of them upright. Hover or tap to see the back. Colors and font are yours to change next.

We'll suggest the templates that suit your line of work.

step 3

Your details

Already have a card? Digitize it.

Snap your current card and we fill everything in. You then pick what goes into the QR.

* Only for scanning. The photo is sent once to Cloudflare Workers AI (Google Gemini as backup) to read it, and we don't store it. Typing your details below never leaves this browser.

what does the QR do?

Scanning opens a small techtuate page showing these details with a big Save to contacts button. It works with every scanner app. Your details travel inside the QR itself; nothing is stored on a server.

Your logo sits in the middle of the QR. We switch to the strongest error correction so it still scans.

step 4

Looks good? Download it.

Saved in this browser, so you can come back and reprint.

Print-ready PDF

For a print shop. Vector text, 3 mm bleed and crop marks, front and back pages.

Home-print sheet

Up to 10 cards on one page with cut marks. Backs on a second page, lined up for double-sided printing.

Image (PNG)

300 DPI at the exact card size. For online printers that want images, or to share.

Just the QR

The same QR on its own, as PNG or SVG. Handy for email signatures and slides.

Printing double-sided at home? Print one test sheet first: printers shift the back slightly, and a test tells you whether to flip on the long or the short edge.

No watermark. Nothing uploaded.

On a phone this opens your contacts app. On a computer it downloads a .vcf you can open in Outlook or Apple Contacts, or import at contacts.google.com.

about this tool

About the business card maker

Free, no sign-up and no watermark. Pick a format, choose one of ten hand-tuned templates (two of them portrait) and fill in your details. The QR code can save your contact straight to a phone (with only the fields you tick) or open a link. Downloads are a print-ready PDF with vector text, 3 mm bleed and crop marks, a home-print sheet for A4 or Letter card stock, 300 DPI PNGs, or the QR on its own. Everything is made in your browser and your design is remembered in this browser only. The one exception is the optional "digitize your card" scan, which sends the photo once to Cloudflare Workers AI (Google Gemini as backup) to read it and is labeled where you use it. Part of techtuate, a growing collection of little tools that just work. Got a pile of cards from other people? The business card reader turns them into contacts.

questions people ask

Questions people ask

Is this business card maker really free?

Yes. Every template, the print-ready PDF, the home-print sheet and the QR code are free, with no sign-up and no watermark. We don't sell printing, so there is nothing to upsell.

What does the QR code on the card do?

You choose. By default it opens a small contact page with a Save to contacts button, which works with any scanner app. Your details are packed inside the QR itself and nothing is stored on a server. It can also hold a plain vCard for offline use, or open a link such as your website or LinkedIn. You pick exactly which details go into it.

Can I print the cards at home?

Yes. Download the home-print sheet: up to 10 cards on an A4 or Letter page with cut marks, and the backs on a second page lined up for double-sided printing. For a print shop, use the print-ready PDF with bleed and crop marks.
