Create Your Business CardAbout QR Code Business Cards
A QR code on a business card bridges the gap between a physical card and the digital world. When someone scans the code, they can instantly save your name, phone number, email, job title, and company into their phone contacts without typing anything. This is especially valuable at conferences, networking events, and trade shows where you exchange dozens of cards in a single day.
Beyond vCards, you can link the QR code to your website, LinkedIn profile, portfolio, booking page, or any URL that represents your professional identity. Freelancers, realtors, salespeople, and consultants often use QR business cards to stand out and reduce the chance that their contact information gets lost in a stack of paper cards.
This generator produces a print-ready PDF at standard business card dimensions (3.5 x 2 inches) with a high-resolution QR code. Design the card with your preferred colors and QR style, then print at home on pre-cut cardstock or order from a professional printer. Everything runs in your browser with no sign-up and no data uploaded.
How It Works
- Select the Business Card template and choose your QR data type (vCard for contact info, or URL for a website).
- Enter your details -- name, phone, email, company, or website URL.
- Pick a color scheme and QR code style that matches your brand.
- Download the print-ready PDF and print on business card stock.
Printing Tips
- Use pre-perforated business card stock (Avery 8371 or similar) for clean edges when printing at home.
- Keep the QR code at least 0.8 inches wide on a business card for reliable scanning.
- Choose a matte finish to avoid glare, which can make QR codes harder to scan.
- Test scan the printed card before ordering a large batch to verify the code works correctly.
