The Business Lounge Cards not only allow you to present your contact details in an appealing way as an alternative or addition to your paper business card, but also provide you with a comfortable, direct and secure line of live interactive communication with your customers and business partners around the world.
In the office, at home, or on the go - the Business Lounge Cards are designed to work well in all modern browsers that support HTML5 - on both desktop and mobile devices, running Windows, MacOS, Linux, iOS and Android.
Communicate via live text chat with you contacts. Text messages can be up to 4096 characters long. And, of course, you can also add emojis to your text messages.
With a Plus or Premium Business Lounge Card, you can not only chat via text messages with your contacts, but also via live voice and video chat. All you need is access to a camera and/or microphone.
You can also send and receive files during a live chat. All files will automatically be sent over an encrypted channel to ensure your privacy. Files exchanged during a live chat have no file size restrictions.
A Business Lounge Card Plus or Premium license allows you to add a showcase to your Business Lounge Card where you can present samples of your work and let users download brochures, for instance. You can show images or video files, add explaining texts and download links so your Business Lounge Card visitors can download any files you want them to have. The showcase will start automatically as soon as a user opens your Business Lounge Card and run in a loop for as long as the user has your Business Lounge Card open.
With a Premium Business Lounge Card you can also use a whiteboard and/or a chalkboard during your live conversations. Use a marker to draw on the whiteboard in different colors and even choose the type of paper background to draw on: blank, lined, graph or grid. The chalkboard is black and looks like a real chalkboard, and you can use chalks in different colors draw on it. So instead of trying to explain something in words, just use the whiteboard or the chalkboard to draw it! You can use the mouse to draw, of course, but if you have a pen available for your device (or your finger), it makes drawing much easier. The included sound effects will create a realistic drawing experience (minus the screeching sounds on the chalkboard, of course). But if you wish, the sound effects can be turned off.
Personal Business Lounge Card Link
Each license is assigned to one user, so that each user has his or her own personal Business Lounge Card. The Business Lounge Card can be accessed by a unique link generated explicitly for this user. This link can then be shared with contacts, so that they can access the user's Business Lounge Card directly.
Easily share your Business Lounge Card
Share your Business Lounge Card, for example, by adding your personal Business Lounge Card link to your e-mail signature, or use the share feature to send the Business Lounge Card directly via e-mail to a desired contact. Or if you're face to face with a new contact, just let him or her scan the QR-code of your Business Lounge Card and it immediately opens up in their browser.
You can adjust the logo, background, colors and font of your Business Lounge Card design using a special editor, so that it will match your corporate design. If you have a unique design in mind that you can't create using the editor, just contact the
support for assistance. Please note that the Lounge Card editor can only be used on devices with a width of at least 1024px.
Easily integrate the Business Lounge Card widget into your own website. All you have to do is add a few lines of code to a page on your website where you wish the Business Lounge Cards to be shown. No special software needs to be downloaded or installed, only a browser that supports HTML5 is required. You don't have a website? Or you don't want the Business Lounge Cards to be shown on your website? Then the Business Lounge Card will automatically be shown on myloungecard.com.
To ensure your privacy and to enable you to have confidential conversations, all communication streams, as well as all live media streams and file exchanges only use SSL/TLS encrypted channels.
React to your chat partner's live stream by adding bursts of reaction emojis to their screen.
Optionally require your contacts to verify their e-mail address before being able to live chat or meet with you, as an additional layer of security. That way, you can be sure that the person you are talking or exchanging files with is actually the person he or she claims to be.
The Premium Business Lounge Card is also equipped with a stage screen (with a curtain for a more dramatic effect 😉) where you can do live presentations of media files, such as videos, images, or audio files, as well as live video streams. You can select the media files from your computer and play them on the stage screen. Your chat partner will not receive an actual file that he can save to his computer, but will only see the media live on his stage, as you present it to him. You therefore retain complete control over the media, so you could, for instance pause a video file and discuss a specific scene with your chat partner. You can also make your guest the current presenter and allow him or her to show you their own media. During a live presentation you can discuss contents with your customer directly, instead of sending him a file for review and not knowing if he has seen it yet or what he thinks of it. If you have multiple cameras attached to your computer, you could select a different camera for your stage live stream than for your video chat stream. That way, your chat partner could see you while you use another camera to show him something.
During a live presentation with a Premium Business Lounge Card, the current presenter can also choose to share part or all of their screen, if their device or browser supports this. The shared view will then be shown on the chat partner's stage screen. That way, you could, for instance, open a document directly in Word or an image directly in Photoshop and make changes while your customer is watching, or help your customer fill out a document you have sent to him. Or he or she could show you their workflow on their computer, so you could help them solve a problem they have had. The use cases for this feature are limitless and it practically allows you to look over each other's shoulders while working on a task. Please note that screen sharing can only be initiated on devices or operating systems that support this.
Use the dashboard to manage your contacts, browse the Business Lounge Card directory and to hold your live chats and meetings. With a Plus or Premium Business Lounge Card license, you can also monitor your Business Lounge Card activity in the dashboard and pro-actively start live chats with your Business Lounge Card visitors.
When you have the dashboard open, you can configure to be notified if an email-verified contact of yours opens up your Business Lounge Card, so you won't miss a connection opportunity.
Business Lounge Card activity monitoring
Use the dashboard to see if anyone is currently accessing your Business Lounge Card and pro-actively invite them to chat with you.
Use the company directory in the Dashboard to see all Business Lounge Card holders in your company. You can view the Business Lounge Cards of all users in the directory and, of course, also directly communicate or meet with them live via their Business Lounge Cards.
Global Business Lounge Card directory
You can optionally enter your business along with your Business Lounge Card users into the global Business directory. Browse the directory to find Business Lounge Card users and their businesses across the world, providing you with a simple and effective way to grow and maintain your business connections.
Each Business Lounge Card Plus or Premium license includes 1GB of storage space for storing the user's showcase media and any downloadable files, etc. If you find that you require more storage space, you can always add more to your subscription plan.
