Whether to save trees or reduce physical sharing during the pandemic, the case for creating and sharing digital business cards rather than paper is strong. With L-Card Pro, you’re accomplishing both of these goals with the ability to create a custom digital card with multichannel sharing.<\/p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/lcardapp.com\/pages\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/creating_custom_card_content.jpeg” title_text=”creating_custom_card_content” _builder_version=”4.23.1″ _module_preset=”default” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” alt=”creating_custom_card_content” sticky_enabled=”0″][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]
When you first open the app, you’re asked if you want to build your own card, create a fast card, or scan a paper card. Choosing the first option brings you to their template site where you can choose a pre-designed version\u2014hundreds of options in categories such as health, marketing, and real estate\u2014or go full custom on this same page, adding your own images and background. In addition to contact details, you also can add video, social, and other links such as collateral. Images, text, and social icons can all be dragged and dropped anywhere inside the card template to give you control of your design. And because of this flexibility, you could create just about any type of card you wanted. In the example image above, I created a realtor’s business card with a house listing.<\/p>\n
Design a card on your phone, or make it easier by logging in to the site to create it on a larger device. It took me several minutes to pick a template, enter my info, download an image, and rearrange the layout to my liking on my phone. Then I made some minor tweaks on my laptop. Once saved, the app creates a QR code, lets you add a calendar link, and lets you add a card to your email signature. Then share with the QR code, text, email, WhatsApp, and other platforms.<\/p>\n
The card scanner is average compared to the others here, but it gets the job done. The app opens and quickly finds the card, scans it automatically, and then asks you to edit or proceed. For one scan, I picked Edit and re-cropped the scan because it didn’t capture the dark bottom edge with an address. Problem solved. I like that you can just click into a field and start editing if needed, which makes it faster if you’re saving multiple cards. You’ll be asked to save it to Library, Favorites, Groups, or My Cards, if it’s one of yours.<\/p>\n
You can also export your contacts to Salesforce, Outlook, Google Contacts, and save to phone contacts. There’s even a way to create a customized Zoom background showing a scannable QR code in the background.<\/p>\n
