What is a Template?

A template in Wave is a tool designed to help maintain consistent branding across your team's digital business cards. By using templates, you can create pre-built designs that save time and effort for your users while ensuring that your brand's look and feel are consistently applied.

Benefits of Using Templates:

  1. Consistent Branding:

    • Templates help ensure that all team members' digital business cards have a uniform appearance, reflecting your brand's identity consistently.
  2. Time-Saving:

  3. Customizable Design:

    • You can add brand colors, logos, and any digital business card content pieces to the template. This includes contact information, bios, background images, social media links, and more.
  4. Locking Features:

    • Templates allow you to lock certain features to prevent users from making changes that could affect the brand's consistency. This ensures that critical elements of the design remain uniform across all users.
