Recently, Instagram launched a new feature known as Profile cards. Let’s find out what these profile cards are and how you will use them.
First, let us understand why the social media platform introduced the new feature. The main objective of implementing the feature is to make sharing and connecting on the platform more accessible and streamlined. So, how does it happen in the first place?
How Do the Profile Cards Work?
With the help of these cards, you can generate a shareable link to your profile. You can share this link via emails, messages, and other social media platforms. And if a visitor clicks on the link, he will be directed to your profile page on Instagram. This will allow your visitor to look through your profile and browse your content.
As per the company announcement, the so-called two-way profile cards have been designed to make sharing your IG easier and save you the time and effort of sending @. The Instagram Profile cards are double-sided, featuring a QR- code linking to your profile on one side and your username on the other. You can also personalize the background with an image. Moreover, you can also share the cards with potential collaborators or brands.
