What is the Instagram Profile Card Feature?

Instagram Profile Cards are very similar to digital business cards.

It is basically an animated card that carries all the basic information about your Instagram profile. The card has two sides.

One side of the card features your profile picture, username, display name, and bio along with any links you may have added to your profile. The other side features a scannable QR code. People would be able to scan the QR code to directly visit your Instagram profile page.

Instead of sending links manually, you can now download your Profile Card and share it quickly with anyone you choose.
