Design your own BSidesFrankfurt 2026 conference card

Every attendee gets a blank ID-1 (CR80) card to design however they like and keep. Here's the spec, a template, and how to get yours printed and waiting for you on conference day.

TL;DR

  • Every attendee gets a blank ID-1 / CR80 card alongside their lanyard.
  • Grab the SVG template, design your card.
  • Watch X / LinkedIn / Mastodon — the submission email drops in the coming weeks.
  • Send your final design → we print it → you pick it up at the conference. It’s yours to keep.

This September, your BSidesFrankfurt badge isn’t the only thing you’ll be wearing. Alongside your lanyard, every attendee receives a blank ID-1 (CR80) card — a small, keepable piece of the conference that you design yourself and take home at the end of the day.

The card

The card follows the ID-1 / CR80 format — the same size as a credit card, ID card, or business card: 85.60 × 54.00 mm, with a 3.18 mm corner radius. That’s the only hard rule. Everything else — artwork, text, jokes, QR codes, your handle, your favourite CVE number — is up to you.

Make it yours

To get you started, here’s a ready-to-edit SVG template. Open it in whatever you like — Inkscape, Illustrator, Figma, or even a text editor ;) — make it yours, and export.

Get yours printed — on us

Here’s the deal: send us your finished design before conference week and we’ll print it and hand it to you on the day of the conference. Guaranteed. No on-site queue, no printing fee, no “maybe”.

We’ll announce the submission email address in the coming weeks. Keep an eye on our channels so you don’t miss it:

Once the address is live, email us your final SVG or PNG at card size (300+ DPI recommended). We handle the rest, and your card will be waiting at the badge desk in September.

Share your design (optional)

Want to show it off before September? We’d love that. Post your design publicly and tag @BSidesFRA — we’ll boost our favourites and reshare a few (email us if we miss it!). Inspiration is contagious, and seeing what others build is half the fun.

See you in September.
