Free Business Card Templates

Free business card templates can be found online at several locations: business card printers often offer free business card templates as part of their service, as do makers of printers and manufacturers of business card paper (for people who want to print their own business cards.)

BizCardGuru.com is my personal favorite for business card templates.  There are thousands of background templates for business cards, all neatly categorized by topic.  These business card templates are free only if you order from that particular business card printing company, however, which is the usual case.  (Check out my business card printer reviews; you can get a business card printing discount on your first order, by the way!)

If you want to make your own free business cards using a template, try one of the websites listed below.  Some of the templates are very basic, actually business card instructions rather than true business card templates; these can be improved by printing your new business cards on the specially designed business card papers you can get at retailers such as Staples.
