What is a vCard QR code?
A vCard QR code stores your contact info in a format phones understand. When someone scans it, they get a prompt to save your name, phone number, email, and other details to their contacts app.
This works well at conferences, on business cards, in email signatures, and on booth displays. No one has to type your number by hand.

Best practices for networking QR codes
Test on both iPhone and Android before you print hundreds of business cards. Keep the QR at least 2 cm square on a standard card. High error correction, automatic with a logo, helps on textured or dark card stock.
- Place the QR on the back of the card with a short "Scan to save contact" label
- Use SVG export so printers get a sharp vector file
- Update and reprint if you change phone or email. Static codes do not auto-update
