Instagram Launches Digital Profile Cards for Easy Sharing

by Kay Lee

Instagram has introduced a new feature that allows users to share their accounts through customizable digital profile cards. Acting like a virtual business card, the new feature lets users share a two-sided card that includes a scannable QR code linking to their profile, along with information like their bio, picture, and even a song of their choice.

This update, aimed at making it easier to connect with new people, offers customization options like adding links, changing the background, and more. The profile card is designed to provide a richer snapshot of an account beyond just a simple handle. Instagram hopes this will enhance user connections, especially for creators and businesses who can now share relevant information quickly and professionally.
