Digital invite designers
Video and WhatsApp e-invites sold from a name like einvite.cards.
Visiting-card printers
Upload-and-print orders for shops and professionals, with same-day pickup.
Greeting-card and stationery shops
Festival ranges for Diwali, Rakhi and New Year in one seasonal storefront.
Corporate HR and rewards
An internal portal like thanks.cards for employee gift vouchers and e-cards.
Trading-card collectors
Cricket and game card swaps, auctions and price guides.

Is .cards restricted to card companies?
No. Anyone may register a .cards name; the registry checks no trade licence, GST registration or proof that you sell cards. It does require accurate contact details and use within its acceptable-use policy, which matters for gift-voucher sites that may attract phishing copies.
- Not for payment cards: a bank or fintech card product fits .creditcard (₹17,711 first year) better; .cards reads as stationery and gifting.
- Label: 2–63 letters, digits and inner hyphens.
- Brand safety: register your shop name early before a look-alike voucher site does.
- Invoice: INR with 18% GST; add a GSTIN for input credit.
.cards vs .gifts and .in for an invitation business
If the product is printed or digital cards, take .cards; if it is hampers and return gifts, take .gifts; if you sell across India to customers who search in Hindi or a regional language, a .in name at ₹1,000 a year keeps costs low. .cards and .gifts cost the same, so let the product decide. The extension does not affect rankings.
Printers who also sell envelopes, boxes and favours often hold .cards for the catalogue and .gifts for the add-ons, both pointing to one store.
Building a card catalogue on .cards
A card catalogue needs fast image loading and an order or enquiry form, so plan hosting around photos. A design gallery with WhatsApp ordering fits on shared hosting from ₹299 a month; a full cart with per-quantity pricing belongs on e-commerce hosting or a store from build an online store. Keep auto-renew on before the wedding season.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Can a wedding card printer in a small town use .cards?

Binky Moon, LLC through Identity Digital Inc. in Bellevue, Washington. IANA first delegated .cards to Foggy Hollow, LLC on 11 February 2014, and Binky Moon took over in 2018.

Does .cards support DNSSEC?
Yes. The .cards zone is signed with a secure delegation at the root, which helps protect gift-voucher and order pages from DNS spoofing once your own name is signed.
