How Info Cards work

What Info Cards are, where they live on your profile, how the completion percentage works, what clients see, and which cards a client needs filled before they can book you.

Info Cards are the building blocks of your profile's information. Each card holds one part of how you work — your bio and contact details, your services and pricing, your availability, your aftercare, and so on. Together they're what a client reads before deciding to book you.

This page explains where the cards live, how filling them in works, what clients see, and which cards a client needs to see filled before they can book you at all. Each individual card has its own guide in this section.

  • Where your Info Cards live

    Your cards live on the Info tab of your profile. Open your profile, then tap Info in the row of tabs below your header. You'll see your cards laid out as a grid. Tap any card to open it.

    The Info tab is part of the row of profile tabs covered in Your profile tabs.

  • Who has Info Cards

    Info Cards are for practitioner and studio accounts. Collector accounts don't have them — collectors have a Collection and Bookmarks instead, not a set of business cards.

    The exact cards you get depend on your account type and your discipline. A tattoo artist, a piercer, and a permanent makeup practitioner each see a set tailored to how their work runs; a studio account sees a set about the shop. The full breakdown is at the bottom of this page.

  • Opening, editing, and saving a card

    Tapping a card opens it in view mode — a preview of what's filled in. On your own cards there's an Edit button; tap it to open the form, make your changes, and Save. Each card saves on its own; there's no single "save everything" step.

    Most fields come pre-filled with sensible starting text or defaults, so you're editing rather than starting from a blank page. You can change or clear anything.

  • The completion percentage

    Each card shows how complete it is. A card sits at 0% until you save it for the first time. After that, most cards jump straight to 100% — saving them once is all they need.

    A few cards want a specific field before they count as complete:

    • General Information needs your bio.
    • Contact needs at least one way to reach you and a preferred contact method chosen (InkMap messaging counts and is selected by default, so this is easy to reach).
    • Policies & Legal needs your minimum age set.
    • Availability & Schedule needs at least one working day switched on.
    • A tattoo artist's Specializations & Style needs at least one style and one size.

    The percentages are a guide to help you finish setting up — they're not a score anyone else sees.

  • What clients and visitors see

    When someone else opens your profile, they see your cards in view mode — read-only. They can't edit anything.

    Most of what you put on a card is public, because the whole point is to help clients understand how you work. A few cards let you hide parts: your Services & Pricing card has a show-or-hide switch for your prices, and a tattoo artist's Machines, Inks & Supplies card lets you hide individual sections. Your Contact card's preferred-contact choice tells clients the best way to reach you.

  • The cards that unlock bookings

    For a practitioner, three cards have to be filled in before a client can book you: Services & Pricing, Availability & Schedule, and Policies & Legal. Until all three are in place (and you've turned on the Booking System and your calendar is open), the booking form won't open for clients — they'll see a prompt to notify you instead. This is covered from the client's side in the booking guides, and the per-discipline setup is in Getting started as a practitioner.

  • The full set of cards, by account type

    Every practitioner has these:

    • General Information — your bio, languages, and when you started.
    • Contact — phone, email, website, socials, and your preferred way to be reached.
    • Services & Pricing — what you offer and what it costs (called Process & Pricing for tattoo artists).
    • Availability & Schedule — your working hours and whether your calendar is open.
    • Policies & Legal — age rules, deposit refund terms, and your cancellation and health policies.
    • Aftercare Instructions — healing guidance for your clients.
    • Credentials & Licenses — your certifications and licenses.
    • Reviews — the reviews clients have left you.

    Discipline-specific cards:

    • Tattoo artists also get Specializations & Style, Machines, Inks & Supplies, and a Convention Awards card.
    • Permanent makeup and body modification practitioners get a Specializations card.
    • Laser practitioners get a Session Information card.

    Studio accounts have:

    • General Information — a description of the shop and when it was established.
    • Contact — the shop's phone, email, and socials.
    • Location & Hours — opening hours, parking, and accessibility.
    • Chain Studios — other locations, if you're part of a chain.
    • Studio Reviews — reviews left for the shop.

Frequently asked questions

Do I have to fill in every card?

No. Only Services & Pricing, Availability & Schedule, and Policies & Legal are required, and only because clients can't book you until they're set. Everything else is there to make your profile richer — fill in what's useful to you.

Can clients edit my cards or leave anything on them?

No. Other people only ever see your cards read-only. The one card that fills up from other people is Reviews, which collects the reviews your clients leave after a booking — see Leaving and managing reviews.

Why don't I see a card another practitioner has?

The set of cards is tailored to your discipline. A tattoo artist sees style and equipment cards a piercer doesn't; a laser practitioner sees a session-information card others don't. You can't add a card that isn't part of your discipline's set.
