What are the pros and cons of vertical ID cards?
Pros:

- The vertical ID cards are also able to accommodate more details on them.
- The information on vertical ID cards is provided on one side only, due to which the person is not required to turn the card to get additional details
Cons:
- Although the vertical-mode ID cards look different and unique, not everyone likes the change and uniqueness.
- Scanning the vertical ID cards is a bit different and complicated, due to which many companies give preference to horizontal ID cards over vertical cards
Factors to consider while designing vertical ID cards:
1. Information to be included:

The cards with a vertical design have a width of less than 3 inches. So, if you have a long domain name to enter into the card, the vertical design may make you lose the aesthetic look of the card. However, if the details you want to include are not too long, you can easily make use of a vertical design
2. Purpose of the card:
You should be able to understand the impact of the card on your organization. The purpose of the card should be well-identified so that you can make a clear decision about using the vertical design.
