Paper business cards are easy to lose and impossible to update. An NFC business card works differently: the other person taps it with their phone and your details open on their screen.
How it works
Inside the card is a small NFC chip storing a web link. When someone holds their phone near the card, the phone reads the link and opens the page in its browser. There is no app to install for the person receiving your details.
Which phones work?
Most modern iPhone and Android phones can read NFC. On some Android phones, NFC can be switched off in settings. A QR code printed on the card covers anyone whose phone does not tap.
What to put on the page
- Your name, role and company.
- Phone number and email, with an option to save the contact.
- Links to your website, LinkedIn and calendar.
- A short line about what you do.
Keep it current
If you change role, number or company, update the page instead of reprinting cards.
