Google Search People Cards were introduced in 2020 and will be removed on April 7, 2024. It serves as our online business card while also increasing our online visibility by displaying their websites, social media accounts, and other relevant information.
Google sent this mail in recent days to those, who have their Google Search people card, with the title: “People cards are going away soon”.
The email sent to me is here:
“You’re receiving this email because you created a people card on Google Search
People cards were created to make it easier to highlight information about yourself on Google Search, like your websites and social profiles.
While people cards worked as intended, in the years since its launch, we’ve learned this feature wasn’t as helpful for people as we hoped. On April 7th, 2024, the people cards feature will be discontinued and it won’t be possible to create new people cards or update existing ones. You can download or save your content until May 7, 2024. After that date, the information will be deleted.
This change only affects people’s cards on Google Search, not other products or services. We’ll remind you again as we get closer to April 7th, and in the meantime, please refer to our Help Center if you have any questions. Thank you for being a valuable member of the Google Search community.
The Google Search team”
Here is a screenshot of what I received through that mail.
The forum discussion on X.
Therefore, no new Google People Cards profiles will be created.
They also suggested that we could receive our data using Google Takeout and use it elsewhere.
We have access to any information before May 7.
This Google Search person card is now accessible in India, Kenya, Nigeria, and South Africa, with an active language choice of Hindi or English, depending on what you want.
