Why this exists
Free Business Card Maker is built around a few practical wins, not a long feature list:
- Exports at 300 DPI, which is what printers need - a screen-resolution image looks visibly fuzzy on card stock.
- Uses the standard 3.5 × 2 inch US size, so it fits any printer's template without resizing.
- 20 designs, so you are not stuck with one generic layout.
- Free with no account, no watermark and no limit on how many you make.
- Runs in your browser - your phone number and email are never uploaded.
Walkthrough
- Pick a theme. Choose from 20 designs covering classic, modern and bold looks. The preview updates instantly.
- Add your details. Name, job title, company, phone, email, website - fill in only the fields you want to appear.
- Check the live preview. The card renders exactly as it will print, so you can see spacing and line breaks before downloading.
- Download the PNG. You get a 300 DPI image at 3.5 × 2 inches, the standard US business card size.
- Send it to a printer. Upload the PNG to any print shop or online printing service. Ask about bleed if they require it.
Jobs it is built for
- Freelancers and consultants who need cards before a conference or client meeting.
- New small businesses getting their first cards printed.
- Anyone whose job title or number has changed and needs a quick reprint.
- Side businesses that need cards without paying a designer.
- Students and job seekers making simple networking cards.
Worth knowing before you start
- Keep it to the essentials. A card with four clear lines is read; one with ten is not.
- Ask your printer whether they need bleed. Some templates require a few extra millimetres beyond the trim edge.
- Check your phone number and email character by character. A typo here costs you the contact entirely.
- Order a small batch first. Colours can look different on card stock than on a screen.
What not to expect
- Using a low-resolution image. Anything under 300 DPI prints soft and looks amateur.
- Filling every millimetre with text. White space is what makes a card look professional.
- Placing important details right at the edge, where trimming can cut them off.
- Choosing a tiny font size. Below about 8pt is genuinely hard to read on a card.

Short answers
What size is a standard business card?
In the US and Canada, 3.5 × 2 inches (89 × 51 mm), which is what this tool exports. Europe commonly uses 85 × 55 mm, which is slightly different - check with your printer if you are outside North America.
What resolution do I need for printing?
300 DPI is the standard, and it is what this tool produces. A 72 DPI screenshot enlarged to card size will look blurry no matter how good the design is.
Is this business card maker free?
Yes. No account, no trial, no watermark, and no limit on the number of designs you download.
Can I print these at home?
Yes, on pre-scored business card sheets from any stationery shop. For a better feel, a commercial printer offers thicker stock and finishes a home printer cannot match.
Does it add a watermark?
No. The downloaded PNG is clean, with no branding of ours anywhere on it.
Can I add my logo?
The current themes are typography-based and do not include a logo upload. If you need a logo on the card, download the PNG and add it in any image editor, or take the design to a printer who can place it.
What file format do I get?
A PNG image at print resolution. Most printers accept PNG directly; if yours insists on PDF, any image-to-PDF converter (including ours) will wrap it.
Are my contact details stored?
No. The card is drawn in your browser on a canvas, so your name, phone number and email never leave your device.
