MakeTheBadge
Make badges. Print them.
Design name badges, event badges and ID cards for free. Import a spreadsheet, generate every badge at once, and print a sheet that comes out the right size.
No account. No watermark. Your data stays in your browser.
What it is for
A hundred badges from a spreadsheet, without an account
Design the badge once. Add people by hand, or import the list you already keep in Excel or Google Sheets. Every badge is generated from the same design with that person’s details filled in, and the whole lot comes out as a print-ready PDF or a sheet you can send straight to a printer.
That is the entire product. There is nothing to sign up for, nothing to pay for and nothing held back. The list of names you are working with — staff, students, attendees, visitors — never leaves the browser tab you typed it into.
- 1DesignPick a template and put {{name}} where the name goes.
- 2Add peopleType them in, or import a CSV and map the columns.
- 3GenerateEvery person becomes a badge, previewed before you commit.
- 4PrintA sheet at 100%, or a PDF at exactly the size you set.
Templates
Start from a badge that already fits
Eight of them, each at a real physical size, each opening in the editor with its fields ready.
What you get
Everything a badge run actually needs
And nothing you have to configure before it works.
One design, everyone’s name
Put {{name}} on the badge once and it becomes every name on your list. Same for role, company, department, or any field you invent.
Import the spreadsheet you already have
Drop in a CSV and the columns are matched to badge fields for you. Check the mapping, look at the preview, generate the lot.
Sheets that print at the right size
US Letter or A4, your margins, your spacing, cut marks where you want them. The PDF measures exactly what it says in millimetres.
QR codes per person
Encode a name, a ticket reference or a link. Drawn as vector in the PDF, so a 15mm code still scans off the printed badge.
Nothing leaves your browser
Names, photos and imported files are read on your machine and stay there. No upload, no account, and nothing in analytics.
One badge or four hundred
Type a single name for a visitor at reception, or generate a whole conference in one pass. Same editor either way.
