Use Cases
QR Codes for Business Cards
Share your contact details instantly with a simple scan. Replace printed details with a dynamic QR code that lets people save your information directly to their phone.
Overview
Why use QR codes on business cards?
Traditional business cards are easy to lose, hard to update, and rely on manual data entry. Even when someone keeps your card, there is friction in typing your contact details into their phone.
QR codes remove that friction completely. With a single scan, your contact information can be saved instantly – making it faster, more accurate, and far more convenient for the recipient.
They also allow you to move beyond static print. You can link to a digital profile, portfolio, or contact card that can be updated at any time without reprinting.
