How it works

  1. Enter your details

    Fill in your name, organization, title, phone, email, and address - the same fields a standard contact card carries.

  2. Keep the design simple

    Business-card print space is small, so a light touch works best: your color, maybe a logo, and enough contrast to scan reliably up close.

  3. Test, then print

    Scan the preview with both an iPhone and an Android phone before committing to a print run - small differences in phone cameras are easier to catch on one card than five hundred.

Popular use cases

A real contact card, not just a link

This encodes a standard vCard payload - the same format phones already recognize as "save this contact" - so a scan offers to add someone to contacts directly, with no app to install.

Honest about the tradeoff

A vCard code works offline and needs nothing from us to keep functioning - but it's fixed once printed. If your number changes, the printed cards are out of date. A dynamic code pointing to a profile page can be updated later, at the cost of needing an active connection to resolve.

Designed for small print areas

Keep the encoded fields concise - more data means a denser code, which is harder to scan reliably on a business-card-sized print. The studio flags when a design choice is pushing your scan reliability down.
