How to Make a Digital Business Card (vCard)

Share your contact details with a tap or a scan. Here's what a vCard is, why it beats paper, and how to make one people can save in one tap.

Paper business cards get lost, mistyped or thrown away. A vCard — a digital contact file — drops straight into someone's phone with every detail intact, no typing required.

What is a vCard?

A vCard (.vcf) is a standard contact file that every phone and email app understands. It holds your name, title, company, phone, email, website and address, so a recipient can save you as a contact in a single tap.

Why go digital

  • One tap to save — no manual typing, no transcription errors.
  • Always current — reshare an updated card any time.
  • Shareable anywhere — as a QR code on a slide or badge, or as a link in your email signature.
Put a QR code on your presentation's last slide or your name badge — anyone can scan it to save your details instantly.
