How to make conversation cards on a website for a networking session with a large group?
Conversation Cards Website. Maybe you're like me, you're leading the networking session for a large group.
You're looking for a simple way to incentivize people to interact with each other and get out of their bubble.
Or, you want to get strangers having meaningful conversations instead of surface-level networking.
I don't want to print, or prep any materials
A conversation cards website makes it easy to run this for large groups, without printing paper cards or cutting them into a deck the night before.
Get people talking and interacting
Attendees are coming from different departments
Attendees are coming from different departments, locations, schools, organizations, or groups where networking can be awkward.
Conversation cards are generally great for actually getting guests to talk to each other, especially people who otherwise never would have met.
Usually you have guests who already know each other and clique up, and then you have other guests who are less acquainted, standing around checking their phones and feeling out of place.
A prompt-based activity like this incentivizes attendees to get to know someone they otherwise wouldn't have, and it melts the ice for everyone in the room.
Conversation cards are fun but take a lot of prep
But then reality hits: you have to write the prompts, format a deck, print it out, cut the cards, and hand them out on event day. It's a lot of work for one activity. Wouldn't it be easier if it just lived on a website?
There has to be a better way
There has to be a better way. There is, and we made it. It's called Jam Bingo.

The Conversation Cards Website
Jam Bingo incentivizes people to interact with others they wouldn't normally meet, so networking with a large group stops feeling awkward or forced.
TL;DR: How does it work? Everyone scans the game QR code, receives a set of conversation prompts on their phone, then walks around the room talking to new people to complete them.
How Jam Bingo works:
1. Attendees scan to join
No app download, no account, attendees simply scan the QR code to start playing.
2. Attendees receive conversation prompts
Customizable prompts so the cards match your event, your group, and the connections you actually want people to make.
3. Mingling & Networking Starts
Attendees walk the room to find someone who matches their prompt, which means real, in-person conversations instead of surface-level small talk.
What do you think? Neat, eh?
Do you think this is a better fit than printing conversation cards for a large group? If so, you should definitely get on board and see how Jam Bingo works.
