## What you'll need

- A card that is live. See [Create your card](/help/digital-cards/create-your-card).

## Build and use your background

  1. **Open Meeting backgrounds**
   In the sidebar, choose **Meeting backgrounds**. A large preview shows your background with your name and QR code.

  2. **Choose a photo**
   In the photo gallery below the preview, choose a tile. The preview updates.

  3. **Place the QR code**
   Under **QR position**, choose a corner, then choose a **QR size**: **Small**, **Medium** or **Large**.

  4. **Choose what shows**
   Under **Show on the background**, switch **Name**, **Job title** and **Company** on or off.

  5. **Download the image**
   Optionally type a **Download filename**, then choose **Download PNG**. The button works once the preview has finished updating.

  6. **Upload it to your meeting app**
   Open your meeting app's background settings and upload the downloaded PNG as a custom virtual background. This works in Zoom, Google Meet and Microsoft Teams.

       **Note:** In Google Meet your own preview looks mirrored. Meet flips your self-view the way a mirror does, and everyone else on the call sees the background the right way round.

Result: your name and QR code appear behind you in your meeting, and anyone can scan the code to open your card.

## Frequently asked questions

### Why does the page say You don't have an active card yet?

The background is built from your card. Create your card first, then come back to Meeting backgrounds.

### Can I choose which corner the QR code sits in?

Yes. Under QR position choose one of the four corner buttons, named Top left, Top right, Bottom left and Bottom right, and choose a QR size of Small, Medium or Large.
