Better than paper business cards
A printed QR on your badge or email signature means contacts get saved correctly the first time β no typos, no lost cards. Most smartphones open the 'Add to Contacts' prompt automatically when they recognise a vCard payload.
Design tips
- Include only fields you want contacts to keep β less is more.
- Use plain phone number formats (+country code) for international scans.
- Test the code with both iOS and Android before printing.
Frequently Asked Questions
Which vCard version does it use?
vCard 3.0 β the most widely supported format across iOS, Android, Outlook and Mac Contacts. vCard 4.0 is newer but less universally recognised.
What fields can I include?
Name, job title, organisation, phone (mobile, work, home), email, website, street address, city, postcode, country, note. Leave any blank.
Is there a size limit?
QR codes scale with content. A typical business-card vCard stays at version 10 or below β easily scannable. Add a long note and the code densifies.
Can I include a photo?
Technically vCard supports a Base64 image. Practically, embedding a photo pushes the QR to version 40 (maximum density) and scanning becomes unreliable. Skip the photo.
