Your ELYSIUM Account

You can use the Card Designer without an account — everything works locally in your browser. But creating a free ELYSIUM account unlocks powerful cloud features:

  • Save to the cloud — Access your designs from any device
  • Cross-device sharing — Share links that work for anyone, anywhere
  • Collaboration — Let others view, copy, or claim your cards
  • Project management — Browse, search, and organize all your eCards in one place

Creating an account​

  1. Click "Save to ELYSIUM" in the sidebar, or click "Create Account" in the Projects panel

  1. The sign-up flow walks you through three quick steps:
    • Your details — Enter your name, email address, and a password (at least 8 characters)
    • Choose a username — One is auto-generated from your email, but you can change it to whatever you like

You can start designing first and create an account later — just click "Save to ELYSIUM" whenever you're ready to save to the cloud.

Signing in​

  2. Enter your email and password
  3. Click Sign In

Your session stays active for 60 minutes and refreshes automatically in the background. If you close the browser and come back later, you'll still be signed in — no need to log in again unless you've been away for more than 7 days.

Signing out​

Click your account name at the bottom of the sidebar to sign out.

  • If you have unsaved changes, a warning dialog asks if you want to save first

  • Signing out does not delete your local auto-save — your work-in-progress stays in the browser
note

Your local auto-save and any downloaded .ecard files are completely separate from your cloud saves. Signing out won't affect them.
