Business Card QR Code — vCard Codes That Save Your Contact in One Scan
Paper business cards get lost; contacts saved to a phone don't. A vCard QR code bridges the two: one scan opens a pre-filled contact card — name, title, company, phone, email, website, address — ready to save. No typing, no transcription errors, no 'I'll add you later'.
Create your vCard QRQRStatix generates standards-compliant vCard 3.0 codes that work natively on iPhone and Android. Because vCards encode more data than a URL, our optimizer manages module density automatically and recommends the ideal print size, so even a 2 cm code on a standard card scans on the first try.
Want to update your details after printing? Use a dynamic profile QR instead: the code links to a hosted bio page with a 'Save contact' button, and you can change jobs without changing cards. Premium users can also turn a professional headshot into the QR itself with Photo-to-QR — the most memorable card in the stack.
How it works, step by step
Choose vCard
Select the vCard type in the generator and fill in the fields you want to share.
Design for print
Match your card's palette, add your logo or headshot, and keep strong contrast for small-format printing.
Check density
The optimizer warns if you've encoded too much for a small card and suggests what to trim or a dynamic alternative.
Export vector
Download SVG or PDF for your print shop — vector output stays razor sharp at card scale.

Dynamic profile QRs survive job and number changes without reprinting cards.
Memorable formats
Headshot-fused Photo-to-QR cards that nobody throws away.

Frequently asked questions
Do vCard QR codes work on iPhone and Android?
Yes — both platforms natively recognize vCard data and open the 'add contact' screen.
How small can I print it?
With moderate data, 2×2 cm scans reliably. The optimizer recommends a minimum size for your exact content.
Can I change my details after printing?
Static vCards can't change; choose a dynamic profile QR if your details may change.
Is this free?
Yes — vCard QR codes with full customization and PNG export are free.
