How to Create a vCard QR Code

A vCard QR code encodes your complete contact information — name, phone number, email, company, address, and more — in a format that can be saved directly to a smartphone's contacts with one scan.

Why Use a vCard QR Code?

Exchanging contact information verbally or via paper business cards often leads to errors or lost details. A vCard QR code solves this by packaging all your contact information into a scannable code. When someone scans it, their phone prompts them to save your details directly to their address book — accurately and completely.

This is especially useful in professional networking situations where you want to make a strong first impression and ensure your contact details are saved correctly.

  6. Customize the Color, Background Color, Icon, and Border settings.
  7. Click Preview to review the QR code.
