Getting Started
Creating your profile
After you register, you get a 3-day free trial with full access. Go to your Dashboard to fill in your name, job title, company, bio, and contact details under the Profile Info section. Everything updates live in the preview panel as you type.
Claiming a physical card or sticker
Tap your NFC card with your phone (no app needed) or scan its QR code - either way you land on a claim page for that specific code. First time here, you will register a new account tied to it. Already have an account? Log in first, then open the same link to simply link the code to your existing account instead of creating a second one.
Your public profile link
Every account gets a unique link people can visit - either yourname.com/yourusername if you have claimed a username, or a shorter /u/CODE link if you haven't. Find your exact link at the top of your Dashboard.
Making your profile public or private
In Dashboard -> Profile Info, there is a "Make my profile publicly visible" checkbox. Turn it off anytime to hide your profile from visitors without deleting anything.
Themes & Design
Choosing a theme
Dashboard -> Theme tab shows every available design. Click "Preview" on any theme to see it instantly in the live preview panel before committing - nothing changes on your real profile until you click "Use This Theme".
Customizing colors and fonts
Dashboard -> Branding lets you override your theme's default colors (primary, text, background, buttons, icons, borders) and pick a font. Click "Reset Colors, Font & Animation to Theme Defaults" anytime to undo custom changes.
Uploading a profile photo and cover photo
In Profile Info or Branding, use the upload boxes for your avatar and cover photo. Both open a crop tool so you can frame the image before saving.
Adding your social media links
Dashboard -> Social Links lets you add Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, LinkedIn, and more. Each shows as a tappable icon on your public profile, so visitors do not need to already know your handle to find you there.
NFC Cards & QR Codes
How NFC cards work
A physical NFC card is programmed with a hidden token that redirects to your profile the moment someone taps it with their phone - no app needed, works on both iPhone and Android. Order one from the Shop.
Downloading your QR code
From your Dashboard, click "Download Your QR Code" to open the QR designer. Pick a shape and preview it live - generated right in your browser, nothing uploaded anywhere. If you have a username set, you can also choose between your permanent link (keeps working forever) or your username link (nicer-looking, but breaks if you change your username later).
Subscriptions & Billing
How the free trial works
New accounts get 3 days of full access automatically, no payment required. After that, a small monthly or yearly subscription keeps your profile active - your current status always shows at the top of your Dashboard.
Payment methods
Subscriptions and shop orders can be paid online via card, GCash, or Maya through PayMongo, or manually via GCash/Maya/bank transfer/COD depending on what is enabled - you will see the available options at checkout.
Referral Program
How to become a referrer
Once you have an active paid subscription (not just a free trial), apply for the Referral Program from your Dashboard. An admin reviews and approves applications, after which you get a unique referral code.
Earning and tracking commissions
Share your code with people buying from the Shop or subscribing. When they enter it at checkout, you earn a commission automatically. Track pending and paid earnings right in your Dashboard's Referral Program section.
Media Gallery
Adding photos and videos to your profile
Dashboard -> Media Gallery lets you add images, upload videos directly, or paste a YouTube/Vimeo link instead. A thumbnail is captured automatically either way.
Account & Security
Changing your email or password
Go to Dashboard -> Account -> "Go to Account Settings" for changing your login email, password, or deleting your account entirely.
