Set Up Your Team | NodCards Support

Add Team Members

When you create your NodCards account, the first thing you'll want to do set up your team so all your employees have a consistent digital brand presence that includes:
  1. Digital business cards
  2. Email signatures
  3. Social media profile backgrounds
  4. Link In Bio
  5. ...and more

You can have multiple teams in your account (additional subscription may be required). These could be based on departments, locations or however you'd like. 


Set Your Team Name

Setting the Team Name will help you identify these teams in the team switcher in the dashboard. 

  1. Click the Team icon in the dashboard
  2. Click the 'Settings' tab with the gear icon
  3. Enter your Team Name and click 'Save'

Set Your Team URL Format

You should also set your Team Handle (URL) Format. This allows you to set the URL pattern for the digital business cards you create for your team.

For example, if you have a team member named "Bob Smith" and your company is called "Acme Co.", you can set up all of your digital business cards to use the format '/bob-smith-acme-co' as the URL pattern. 


Info
EXAMPLE: Your company's digital business cards will have a URL like: https://nod.cards/employee-name-company-name

Setting this URL pattern helps improve SEO for your brand.
  1. From the team settings tab, select the 'Name Format' dropdown and select your format
  2. In the 'Team Suffix' field, enter your organization, brand or company name.
  3. Click 'Save'
Notes
NOTE: The Team Handle is only applied when creating cards through the "Bulk Import" function (see below), however, you can also create cards individually through this function and the handle will be applied.
