Frequently Asked Questions

Find answers to frequently asked questions about design, submission guidelines, and using CardDsgn.com. Your go-to resource for help.

1. How do I get my design featured in the CardDsgn Gallery?

We gladly feature submissions from fellow designers, so feel free to submit your design to us or via Instagram (PM).
However, we do recommend using emails since we check our emails regularly. PMs or tagging may be missed or overlooked since we receive many taggings/PMs daily.

2. How do I know if my design gets chosen?

We will reply to the designer via email to notify about the acceptance of his/her design submission.

3. Do all the design submissions get accepted/featured?

All design submissions will go through review. Only the chosen designs get featured on our site and social media channels. While some card designs might not get chosen for the first round, we still keep the files under consideration for other potential platforms in near future. It’s possible for us to revisit the submissions again for feature – but one thing for sure: once your design gets chosen, you will be notified by us via email.

4. How do I increase my chance to get featured?

Designs that are able to meet the below criteria will get a higher chance to be featured:

Unique and creative designs

Clear and creative presentation of your design: able to provide at least two images that showcase your design very clearly, apart from other branding pictures. We don’t mind mockups as long as the designs are well presented.

Detailed and original design info: preferably original, unique content about the design. However, it’s ok too for the designer to reuse the content from their own website/Behance page but it’s recommended to share more insights about the design, since we are focusing more on the design itself instead of the entire branding.

Be responsive to questions/emails: this will increase the designer’s chance for a second and upcoming features.

Complete image files with design details: kindly make sure the design image(s) and design details are both included during the submission. Incomplete submissions will be disregarded. Please refer to our design submission page for the required design info.

5. How long does it take for my design to get featured?

We normally queue the feature based on ‘first come first serve basis’, which means the sooner we receive the complete design info and image files, the sooner we can queue the feature for publish.

In rare occasions, we might rearrange the features to diversify the content.

However, since we only feature 2-4 designs per week, it is possible that some designers might need to wait slightly longer if our submissions increased.

Even so, rest assured that once we inform you that your design is accepted (complete with info and pictures), your design will get published.

6. Do you design or print business cards?

We DO NOT have an online store, nor do we offer design or printing services.

Our official social media links can be found on our site. Any online printing services that claim to be us are frauds and should not be associated with us in any way.

Hopefully we’ve answered most of your enquiries. If not, don’t hesitate to contact us.
