The name badge maker is loading.
How it works
Pick a badge
A conference badge with the pass type in a band, a red hello my name is sticker, a staff ID card with a photo, a visitor pass or a minimal badge. Each opens at the size it is printed.
Paste the names
Open Names, paste one name per line and click Make one badge per name: every page is the same badge with its own name.
Print and cut
Download the PDF and print at 100% on card or sticker paper, or send the print PDF with bleed and crop marks to a printer.
Staff ID cards at the size of a bank card
The ID card maker draws a staff card at CR80, 85.6 x 54 mm, the size of a bank card and of plastic ID card printers: the company at the top, a round photo, the name and role, an ID number and the date it is valid to.
Photos that look right
Use a front-facing photo on a plain background. Replace the photo frame with it; Remove background takes out a busy one.
Printing on PVC
Plastic ID card printers take CR80 cards; send them the PDF or a PNG at full size. On paper, print at 100% and laminate.

Questions
Is a home-made ID card valid identification?
It identifies staff inside your organisation. It is not a government ID, and some sectors set their own rules for staff cards.
Can I put a barcode or QR code on it?
Make one in the QR code generator, download it and add it from Uploads.
What size is a name badge?
4 x 3 in (101.6 x 76.2 mm) fits most clip-on and lanyard badge holders; 3.5 x 2.25 in is a common name sticker; CR80 (85.6 x 54 mm) is the ID card size.
Can I make a badge for every attendee?
Yes. Open Names, paste one name per line and click Make one badge per name. The PDF holds one badge per page.
Can I add a photo to an ID card?
Yes: select the round photo frame on the staff ID card and Replace it with the picture. Remove background takes out what is behind the person.
