vCard QR Code Generator

Yes, both iOS and Android cameras natively support vCard QR codes and will prompt to "Add Contact" or "Save Contact" when scanned. No third-party app is required. The vCard format (.vcf) is a universal standard supported by all major operating systems and contact managers.

While vCard focuses on traditional contact information (name, phone, email, address), you can add your LinkedIn profile or professional website URL in the website field. For multiple social media links, consider using our dedicated Social Media QR code solution instead, which provides a better user experience.

Static vCard QR codes embed the contact information directly in the pattern, so they cannot be updated. If you anticipate changes (new phone number, job title, or address), use a dynamic vCard QR code, which redirects to an editable digital vCard file that you can update anytime without reprinting.

You can include name, organization, job title, multiple phone numbers, multiple email addresses, website URL, and physical address. However, adding too much data makes the QR pattern more complex and harder to scan. We recommend including only essential contact details for optimal scannability and keeping the QR code size reasonable.

Most modern smartphones support profile photos in vCard format. If you upload a photo when creating your vCard QR code, it will typically be saved along with your contact information. However, support varies slightly by device and contact app, so we recommend testing on your target audience's typical devices.

Yes. The contact information is encoded directly in the QR pattern and is only shared when someone intentionally scans the code. Unlike a physical business card that can be photographed or copied by anyone, you control who gets access by controlling who can scan. However, avoid including sensitive information you wouldn't put on a traditional business card.

Each vCard QR code represents one contact entry. For teams, you can create individual codes for each member or use a company contact card with a general phone number and email. Some organizations print team member codes on shared brochures or create a landing page with multiple contact options.

Static vCard QR codes work completely offline because all contact information is stored directly in the QR pattern. Dynamic vCard codes require an internet connection to retrieve the contact file from our server, but once scanned, the contact is saved locally and doesn't require ongoing connectivity.

Yes. QR-Verse is available in 7 languages: English, Dutch, Spanish, French, German, Italian, and Portuguese. The entire interface, dashboard, and support content is fully translated. Your QR codes work globally regardless of which language you use to create them.
