The Card Designer is a sandbox for the look of a loyalty card. You pick a starting template, change the colors, icon, and layout, and a phone preview updates as you go. It lives at the `/cards/design` URL. There is no sidebar or Cards-page link to it yet, so you reach it by typing the address. The Card Designer page with the panel tabs and the Save & Continue button highlighted The page splits in two: the design panels on the left, and a live preview of the member's card on the right. Four tabs sit above the panels. ## Templates The **Templates** tab opens with a gallery of starter designs: Coffee Shop, Pizza Place, Salon & Spa, Retail Store, Gaming Cafe, and Blank. Click one and its colors, icon, stamp count, and layout fill in at once. A template is a starting point, so you can keep editing after you pick one. ## Colors The **Colors** tab sets three colors: **Background**, **Text**, and **Accent** (the fill on a collected stamp). Each one opens a color picker with eight presets, or you can type a hex value into the field next to the swatch. The Colors panel showing background, text, and accent color pickers with hex values ## Icons The **Icons** tab is the stamp icon: the shape that fills in each time a member earns a stamp. Icons are grouped into Food & Drinks, Services, Shopping, Entertainment, and Symbols. The selected icon shows a maroon outline. ## Layout The **Layout** tab holds the card's settings: * **Card Type**: Stamp Card or Points Card. * **Stamp Layout**: Grid, Horizontal, or Vertical. * **Stamps to Collect**: 6, 8, 10, 12, 15, or 20. * **Font**: Inter, Poppins, Roboto, Open Sans, Montserrat, or Playfair Display. * **Reward Text**: the line a member reads under the stamps, such as *Get a FREE reward!* The Layout and Settings panel with card type, layout, stamp count, font, and reward text fields ## The live preview The right side shows a phone with your card on it, using your business name and an example of 7 collected stamps. Every change you make on the left updates here, so you can read the card the way a member will before you commit to it. A phone preview of the loyalty card with the business name, stamp grid, and reward text ## Saving your design The **Save & Continue** button takes you to the create-card wizard at `/cards/new`, where you finish building the card and publish it. The design you make here does not carry into the wizard. Save & Continue opens the new-card wizard, but the wizard starts fresh, so you set the card's colors, icon, and stamp count again on its **Card Design** step. For now the Card Designer is a place to try looks and settle on a direction before you build the real card. For the fields you set when you actually create a card, see [Creating a stamp card](/merchants/stamp-cards/creating) and [Designing your stamp card](/merchants/stamp-cards/designing). ## Who can open it Owners and managers can open the Card Designer. Staff have no access to the Cards area by default, so they do not see it unless you give them stamp card access.
