How to Make a Free Digital Business Card

Tap each step to see it in order.

  1. Use your phone's built-in contact-sharing feature

    Both iPhone and Android let you share your own contact profile as a QR code or link straight from the Contacts app.

  2. Set up an iPhone Contact Poster

    On iPhone, the Contact Poster feature lets you customize your name, photo, and background style, so it works like your own personal digital business card.

  3. Use a QR code from Google Contacts

    Display your info as a QR code in the Google Contacts app, and anyone can scan it with their camera to instantly save your contact details.

  4. Send it with a nearby-sharing feature

    Tools like AirDrop or Nearby Share/Quick Share let you send your contact file directly to someone else's device in seconds, no internet connection needed.

  5. Why this matters

    You can share accurate contact details instantly without printing a single paper card, and the other person can save it directly instead of typing it in by hand.

You don't need a printed card anymore

Your phone's built-in features are already enough to share your name, phone number, and email as a QR code or link, so you can act like you have a digital business card without installing any extra app or paying for a service.

It works across both major phone platforms

QR codes and share links don't care what operating system the other person is using β€” anyone can scan the code with a camera app or open the link, regardless of whether they're on iPhone or Android.
