Digital Business Card

Your business card now lives
on the other person's phone

A digital business card is an always-current card page that opens from a QR code, an NFC card or a link. The other person installs nothing: they open the page, call you or save you to their contacts with one tap. You never say "I'm out of cards" again.

  • No credit card

What is a digital business card?

A digital business card is a card page that opens on a phone and carries your contact details: name, title, phone, email and social profiles. It is shared with a QR code, an NFC card or a link; the other person opens it without installing an app and saves you to their contacts with one tap. When your details change the page is updated; no link you have ever shared goes stale.

A paper card has a short life: it is handed over, goes into a pocket, gets lost in a drawer. When your title changes, hundreds of cards in the box become invalid, and you never know who kept one. A digital business card lives differently: the page opens, enters the contacts app, stays current and, if you want, calls you back.

Many names are used for the same thing: virtual business card, electronic business card, online business card, smart business card, NFC business card. What they share is a card that opens on a phone instead of paper; the difference is in how it is shared and in the software behind it. DigiCardSystem is that software: the card page, the ways to share it, team management and measurement in one place.

How it works

Show. Tap. Be remembered.

A digital business card is shared three ways; all three lead to the same live page.

NFC business card

Bring the physical NFC card close to a phone; the page opens. The card is bought once, and the address inside always points to your page. How NFC business cards work

Save to contacts (vCard)

The "Save contact" button produces a standard vCard file; iPhone, Android, Outlook and Google Contacts recognise it. What is a vCard?

Ready in three steps: open an account with your email (3-day trial, no credit card), fill in your card (name, title, company, phone, social links, photo), share your QR or your link. Your card page can be displayed in Turkish and English; the visitor picks the language.

Who it is for

Wherever meeting people is the job itself

A digital business card is built for teams that hand out many cards and want to see the return.

Sales teams

Every representative's card lives in the company account; when a title changes the page is updated, not reprinted. Views and clicks are tracked as a team total.

Real estate and property sales

Portfolio link, WhatsApp and phone on one page; the customer scans the card at the listing and leaves a "call me" through the contact form.

Insurance and finance advisers

A calm, trustworthy profile: title, licence details, office address and an appointment link. The card stays current, the customer always gets through.

Trade fairs and events

The large QR on the stand desk works even while the team is busy; the follow-up list is ready in the panel after the fair. Trade fair guide

Agencies and consultants

Portfolio, LinkedIn and website on one card; you see which link visitors tap most and arrange the card accordingly.

HR and marketing

A new employee's card is ready on day one; a leaver's card closes with one click. The brand is the same on every card. Team management guide

Platform

The software behind the card page

Managing team business cards

Cards live in the company account; the admin opens, closes and reassigns them. Logo, brand colour and footer come from the centre. Three roles are enough: admin, editor, viewer; on the Enterprise plan everyone can be limited to their own card or their department's cards. On the Enterprise plan, cards are published on your own domain.

Lead capture with a digital business card

The contact form on the card page takes the visitor's name plus a phone number or an email; the record is listed per card in the panel and an email notification goes to the card owner and the admin. The form carries a privacy notice; an invisible trap field and an hourly limit protect it against bots. On the Pro plan a new request is sent to your sales tool by webhook. Lead capture page

Digital business card analytics

How many times the card page was opened, how many unique visitors looked, which link was tapped; the seven-day trend and the card leaders in your team. The dashboard does not show the visitor's name; the numbers answer "how much was the card shared". CSV export on Pro. Analytics page

Security and privacy

The connection is always encrypted (HTTPS). Passwords are stored irreversibly and every admin action is written to an audit log. The card owner can delete the account and its data at any time; the visitor sees below the form where the details they leave are going.

Pricing

Start free, choose as your team grows

The free plan is a 3-day trial with no credit card: 1 card, the card page and TR/EN display.

Getting business cards ready for 2027: a December checklist

To start the new year with your business cards in order, December has three jobs: update the cards, prepare the new year's documents and get ready for January events before the holiday. This guide gives the checklist, a dated January plan and the 2027 calendar.

Smart business cards and mobile business cards explained

A smart business card usually means a printed card with an NFC chip that opens a card page when held near a phone; a mobile business card is the version you carry on your phone: a link, a QR code on screen or a card image in your gallery. Both lead to the same card page; this article explains when each makes sense.

FAQ

Digital business card questions, answered

Short, straight answers. Our guides go deeper.

What is a digital business card?

A digital business card is a card page that opens on a phone and carries your personal and company details. It is shared with a QR code, an NFC card or a link; the other person opens the page without installing an app, calls you, writes an email, visits your social profile or saves you to their contacts with one tap. When your details change the page is updated; no link you have ever shared goes stale.

Does the other person need to install an app?

No. The card page opens in the browser. Whoever scans the QR or brings the NFC card close to their phone sees the page directly; saving to contacts uses a standard vCard file that iPhone, Android, Outlook and Google Contacts all recognise.

Can I use it without buying a physical card?

Yes. The card page and the QR code are ready the moment you open an account; share the QR in your email signature, on your printed card or in a presentation. If you like, your page address can be written to an NFC card; it is optional.

Is a virtual or electronic business card the same thing?

In everyday language, yes: a card that opens on a phone instead of paper. 'Smart card' and 'NFC card' usually mean the physical NFC card; 'virtual' or 'online business card' means the page itself. In DigiCardSystem they are one product: the page always exists, the NFC card is optional.

Can I manage team cards from one place?

Yes. Cards live in the company account; the admin opens, closes and reassigns cards to another employee. Logo and brand colour come from the centre. Roles decide who edits cards and who only views them; on the Enterprise plan everyone can be limited to their own card or their department's cards. A leaver's card goes offline with one click.

Can I collect contact requests from my card page?

Yes. The contact form on the card page lets a visitor leave a name plus a phone number or an email; company, title and message are optional. The record lands in the panel and you get an email notification. Below the form it says the details are passed only to the card owner, with a link to the privacy policy.

Where is my data stored, is it safe?

The connection is always encrypted (HTTPS). A visitor who opens a card page is not asked for a name or contact details; for measurement the time, source and technical connection details of the visit are recorded. The card owner can delete their account and data at any time. Where and why data is processed is set out in the privacy notice.

What does the free plan include?

The free plan is a 3-day trial with no credit card: 1 card and 1 user with the card page and TR/EN display. When the trial ends you choose a plan to carry on; nothing you built is deleted. Starter (3 cards, 1 user) opens: QR code and vCard, Contact form (lead capture), NFC tag, Card templates, Email signature. Pro (7 cards, 2 users) adds: CSV export, CRM webhook, White-label branding, Bank accounts (IBAN) on your card. Enterprise (12 cards, 3 users) adds: Contacts (CRM), API access (REST · OpenAPI), AI features (with your own key), Employee sync (HR / directory), Departments and data scope, Custom domain.
