vCard QR codes encode a full contact card — first and last name, organization, title, phone, email, address, and website — using the standard vCard 3.0 format. Phones recognize the QR as a contact and offer to add it directly. No app, no profile, no follow-up. Capy QR generates everything in your browser, so the contact details stay on your device.

What is a vCard QR code?

A vCard QR code holds a contact card in vCard format — the same file type phones use when you share a contact. Scanning it with the camera shows the person's name and offers to add them to contacts, with phone, email, company, job title, website and address filled in. Nothing is looked up online: the details are inside the code, so it works without an internet connection and doesn't depend on any service staying online.

Make a QR code for contact info in 3 steps

Type your name and the details you want to share — leave out anything you'd rather keep private. Style the code in your brand colors and add your logo. Then download SVG or PDF for print, or PNG for an email signature or slide. Scan it once with an iPhone and an Android phone before printing: both should offer “Add to contacts” or “Create contact”.

QR code for business cards

Put the QR code on the back of the card, or in a corner of the front, away from the fold and the edges. Print it at least 2 cm (0.8 in) square and leave a blank margin around it. Decide what one scan should do: a vCard saves your contact in one scan, while a link to LinkedIn or a portfolio opens a page. Pick the one action you want. Match the card's colors, add your logo (its size is set automatically) and a short label such as “Scan to save my contact”. Export SVG or PDF for the printer, both are vector, then test a printed proof with two phones. vCard codes are static, so they can't be edited after printing.

vCard QR code vs a digital business card

A vCard QR saves your details straight to the other person's phone — no app, no account, no profile page. A digital business card app (Popl, HiHello, Blinq and others) links to a hosted profile you can edit later, with more room for links and photos. If your details change often, or you want to update the card after printing, a hosted profile behind a dynamic QR code is the better fit; for a simple, permanent card, a vCard QR is free and private.

How it works

  1. 1

    Fill in your contact details

    Enter the fields you want saved — name, organization, title, phone, email, website, and address. Leave anything blank that you don't want included.

  2. 2

    Style it to match your brand

    Pick brand colors or a gradient, drop in a logo, choose dot style, and add a 'Scan me' frame label. Capy QR keeps the QR scannable as you go.

  3. 3

    Download in the format you need

    Export as PNG, JPEG, SVG, or PDF at up to 3,200 pixels. No signup, no watermark, no limit on downloads.

Pretty by default. Powerful when you need it.

Frequently asked questions

How do I make a QR code for my contact info?

Enter your name, phone, email and any other details in the vCard form above, style the code, and download it. Anyone who scans it gets an “Add contact” prompt with your details filled in.

Is this a digital business card?

Yes. A vCard QR is one of the simplest forms of digital business card — when scanned, modern phones offer to save the contact directly. No account, no app, no third-party profile page.

What information should I include?

At minimum: name, role, and one contact method (phone or email). Adding company, website, and address makes the saved contact richer. Skip fields you'd rather not share — empty fields are simply omitted.

Can I add a logo?

Yes. Upload a PNG, JPG, or SVG and Capy QR will auto-extract dominant colors and bump the error-correction level so the QR stays readable.

Will scanning open a profile page?

No. Unlike services that link to a hosted profile (Linq, Popl, HiHello), a vCard QR contains the contact data itself. The other person's phone offers to add it to contacts immediately.

How big should it be on a business card?

A 2 cm × 2 cm vCard QR is reliable on a printed card. Don't go below 1.5 cm. Pair it with a frame label like 'Scan me' so the function is obvious.

Can I update it after printing?

Static vCard QRs (what Capy QR generates today) cannot be edited after printing — the data lives inside the image. Dynamic QRs, which let you change the destination after printing, currently support website URLs rather than vCards.

What's the best way to put a QR code on a business card?

Place it on the back or in a corner of the front, away from the fold and edges, at least 2 cm (0.8 in) square with a blank margin. Choose a vCard to save your contact or a link to LinkedIn or a portfolio, add a short label, export SVG or PDF, and test a printed proof with two phones. vCard codes can't be edited after printing.
