Business cards in Canada
The North American size, free to design, and a link that never goes stale.
In Canada a business card is 3.5 by 2 inches, the same as across the border. Design yours here free, take the print-ready PDF to any printer or print ten on a US Letter page, and keep a digital business card on a link.
What you get in Canada
Canadian printers use the 3.5 by 2 inch card, so the maker draws that size by default and the home sheet is laid out for US Letter paper.
Working in two languages is normal here. The card takes whatever you type, so a French title and an English one can sit on the same card without a second design.
The maker, the templates and the print-ready downloads are free in Canada as they are everywhere else. No account is asked for, nothing is stamped across the file, and the design is drawn at 3.5 × 2 in (88.9 × 50.8 mm) so a printer has nothing to scale.
The digital business card is the other half of it. It lives on your own link, shows a QR code that opens it, saves into a phone in one tap, and changes the moment you edit it, so a card you handed over in Canada last year still carries the number you use today.

How to make a business card in Canada
Write the words
Your name, what you do, the company, and the two or three ways you want people to reach you.
Pick a design
Choose a template, then its colours and its lettering. The card on screen follows every pick.
Check the size
3.5 × 2 in (88.9 × 50.8 mm) is the size used in Canada, and the maker draws it by default. Three other sizes are there if your printer asks for one.
Download, or publish
Take the print-ready PDF to a printer, or the sheet of ten for your own paper. Publish the digital business card and your link and its code are live.
Questions from Canada
Is the business card maker free in Canada?
Yes. There is no account, no watermark and no charge for the design or the print-ready download.
What file does a Canadian printer want?
A PDF at 300 DPI with a 3 mm bleed and crop marks, which is exactly what the maker downloads.
Is a business card the same as a visiting card?
Yes. They are two words for one thing, and the word changes with the country rather than the card. This page uses the word used in Canada.
Does the person I give it to need an app?
No. No app, no download and no account on their side. The link or the QR code opens in the browser their phone already has, and your details save to their contacts in seconds.
