About vcard QR codes

A vCard QR code is a business card that saves itself. One scan and your name, phone number, email and company land in the phone's contacts — no typing, no app, no card to lose.

The code carries a vCard 3.0 record, the format Android and iOS contact apps both understand. Every field is escaped properly, so a company name containing a comma or a note spanning several lines does not corrupt the record.

Keep it lean. A vCard with a postal address, a long note and five phone numbers produces a dense symbol that is hard to scan from a business card at arm's length. Name, phone, email and company is the combination that works.

How to create one

  1. Enter the essentials. Name, phone, email and company. Anything else is optional and adds density.
  2. Style the code. Open the Design tab to set colours, module shapes and an optional centre logo.
  3. Download. SVG for print, PNG or WebP for screens. Test the result with a real phone before you print a run.

Frequently asked questions

Which vCard version is used?
vCard 3.0, which has the broadest support across iOS and Android contact apps. Newer 4.0 features are not worth the compatibility risk on a printed card.
Why is my vCard code so dense?
Every field adds bytes. A full postal address and a note can double the payload. Drop the fields you do not need, or print the code slightly larger.
Can I include a photo?
Technically vCard supports an embedded photo, but even a small one blows past a QR code's practical capacity. Link to a profile page instead.
Is it free, and does the code expire?
Free, with no account and no watermark. The code is static, so the content lives in the pattern itself — there is no redirect to switch off and no scan limit to hit.
Is my data sent to your servers?
No. The code is built by JavaScript in your browser. Nothing you type is transmitted, which you can verify in your browser's network tab.
