What is CardPager?

One link with your card, inbox, and network. Share it online or print it.

What's on my card?

Your page lives at cardpager.com/your-handle. It's a two-card layout — a hero card and a business card, both with your photo — showing your name, photo, location, social icons, and an inbox. Choose from 15 style presets, or set your own colors and layout.

What can my card do?

Add link buttons and expandable text blocks, up to 100. Use it as a CV, a project page, a business card, a band page, or a small shop.

Why does it have an inbox — and who can message me?

So visitors can reach you. Anyone who lands on your card can write a message — no app, no signup needed, and they don't have to show their name. You decide who gets through: open to everyone, members only, or closed. One toggle.

How many messages can I get, and how long are they kept?

Free takes 3 messages a day and keeps them 7 days. Pro has no daily cap and keeps them 30 days. After that they're deleted automatically — you don't have to clean anything up.

What if I get an unwanted message?

Delete it, or report it. A reported message can get the sending device banned, so the same person can't come back through the same door.

Can I keep in touch with the people who message me?

Signed-in members can send you a connection request, and you can connect with a member who messaged you. Accept the people you want to keep; they appear in your Network.

Can I use my card as my email signature?

Yes, and it's free. CardPager draws your card as a single image with your QR on it. Copy it once, paste it into your email footer, and every message you send carries your card.

Can I print my card?

Yes. Every card has a QR code. Download it as PNG or SVG and print it on anything.

Can I use my own domain?

With Pro, yes. You get an HTML file you can host on your own site; it stays in sync with your card automatically.

Will my email be public?

No. Your sign-up email stays private. You can add a public email if you want visitors to contact you, or leave it blank.

Is it free?

Yes. The free plan covers most people. Pro ($36/year) unlocks unlimited messages, up to 100 blocks, 30-day message history, daily email digest, background image upload, detailed analytics, and a downloadable HTML embed for your own domain (you host it — SSL, DNS, and uptime are yours).
