Instagram is rolling out new customisable profile cards, making it easier for users to connect and share their profiles with others.
Earlier, Meta introduced a “song on profile” feature that allows to users customise their profile by adding a song that matches their mood or personality.

Using profile cards, users can generate shareable links to their profiles that can be shared via messages, emails, and other apps. Users can also change the background colour, and add a selfie or a custom emoji as the page background.
However, the other side of the profile card includes a QR code that can be scanned by other users to visit one’s Instagram profile.
According to Meta, this new feature will especially help content creators, providing them with a quick way to share their profiles with brands for easy collaboration.
It will also help in community building by helping to connect with others having similar interests in groups or online events.
How to share Instagram’s profile cards?
To share the profile cards,
- Navigate to the Instagram’s profile section.
- Now, tap on the “Share Profile” option.
- However, users can also further customise the profile cards by clicking the edit icon.
