Tips for a great vCard QR code
- Include your country code in the phone number (for example +1 or +44) so it works internationally.
- Less is more: fewer fields mean a simpler code that scans faster.
- Keep strong contrast: use a dark brand color on a white or light background.
- Add a call to action like "Scan to save my contact" next to the code.
Frequently asked questions
What is a vCard QR code?
A vCard QR code contains your contact details in the standard vCard format. When someone scans it, their phone offers to save you as a new contact with your name, phone number, email, company and website filled in.
Does a vCard QR code work on iPhone and Android?
Yes. The built-in camera app on iPhone and on most Android phones recognizes vCard QR codes and shows an option to add the contact. No extra app is needed.
Can I change my details after printing?
No. This is a static QR code, so your details are stored directly in the image. It never expires and does not depend on any server, but if your details change you need to create and print a new code.
Why does my vCard QR code look so dense?
Every field you add makes the code contain more data, which means more and smaller dots. Fill in only the fields you need, keep the logo modest (about 25% of the width) and print the code a little larger.
Is my contact information stored anywhere?
No. The QR code is generated in your browser. Your name, phone number and email never leave your device.
What size should a vCard QR code be on a business card?
Aim for at least 2 × 2 cm (0.8 × 0.8 in). Download as SVG for printing so it stays perfectly sharp at any size.
