Business Card QR Codes
Hand someone a card, they scan it, your details are in their phone. No typing, no typos, no card lost in a drawer. Make the QR free and put it on the back.
Paper business cards still get handed out by the thousand, and most still end up in a bin or a forgotten stack. The card did its job for ten seconds, then the contact never got saved. A QR code fixes that gap. One scan and your name, number, and email land straight in the other person's contacts, spelled right, ready to call.
The most useful version is a vCard QR code. It carries your contact details inside the code itself, so a scan opens a "save contact" card on any phone. No app. No landing page in between.
What the scan should do
Save your contact instantly: name, title, company, phone, email, website. The default for most cards. Make a vCard QR code.
Send them to your portfolio, LinkedIn, Calendly, or company page with a URL QR code. Good when the next step is "see my work" or "book a call".
How to add a QR code to a business card
- Open the vCard QR code generator and fill in name, title, phone, email, and website.
- Generate, then download the SVG. Vector files stay sharp at business-card size, where a low-res PNG turns to mush.
- Place it on the back, around a 2cm square, with quiet space around it so a camera locks on fast.
- Print a test card and scan it with two different phones before you order the full run.
Adding your logo to the center of the code requires a Pro plan (custom branding). The scan and the vCard data are free either way.
