Logo
To add your company logo:

Please notes that all images must be under 20MB
The ideal image for the Logo field on a HiHello card is a square logo with a 1:1 aspect ratio or a rectangular logo with a 2:1 aspect ratio.
Logos should be tightly cropped (no white space around them) to make them appear as large as possible on the card. A transparent background (PNG) and logo colors with light and dark backgrounds will yield the best results.
This logo also appears on virtual backgrounds and email signatures, so we recommend using a high-resolution logo with a minimum size of 512x512 pixels.

Professional and Business plan subscribers can add badges to their card. This is a space where you can add extra images, logos, accreditations, and more. To add a badge:
