Your first 10 minutes on a free account

A free card needs only your name, an email and a phone number, so you can have yours on the web in a few minutes. Here is the whole route.

1. Sign up at www.visitingcards.store/signup with your email, or with Google or Apple, and choose your address. See How do I create an account?.

2. If you used your email, open the email we send you and press Continue. You are signed in and My Card opens. See Why do I need to confirm my email, and how?.

3. In My Card, check your name and add your phone number. The email you signed up with is already there; change it if you want another one on your card. See Adding phone numbers, emails and websites.

4. Pick your colours. See Using your brand colour.

5. Press Publish. Your card is now live at your own address. See How do I publish my card?.

6. Open Home. Copy Card Link copies your address to paste into a message, and the QR code under Scan & Share is ready for someone to scan with their phone camera.

7. Put your card on your own phone's home screen too, so it is always one tap away. See Adding a card to your home screen.

Your free card shows your name, your phone numbers and your email addresses in your colours, with a Save contact button and the Stay in touch form, where people can leave you a message or their details. See What can I change on a free card?.

Free is free for ever. When you want pictures, designs, more buttons and your card's numbers, see Getting the most from Pro.
