What to include on a business card

A standard business card includes your full name, job title, company name, phone number, email address, and website. If you have a logo, upload it to the logo zone. For local businesses, your street address can be helpful. Keep the front clean — only the most important details — and use the back panel for a tagline, QR code, or list of services if needed.

How Publisher-style business card editing works online

Click any text field to update your name, title, and contact details. Upload your logo to the image zone and resize it. The browser editor uses the same click-to-edit approach as Publisher — without requiring a software install. When finished, export a PDF sized for standard business card printing (ten 3.5×2 in cards per Letter page, or a single bleed-ready card for print shop submission).

How to customize this business card
