Frequently Asked Questions

What is a vCard QR code and what contact information can it store?

A vCard QR code encodes digital business card data formatted according to the vCard 3.0 standard. It stores full names, phone numbers, email addresses, company names, job titles, website URLs, and physical addresses.

How do smartphones handle scanned vCard QR codes?

Scanning a vCard QR code with a smartphone camera opens a 'Create New Contact' prompt, allowing the recipient to save all your contact fields into their address book with a single tap.

Why is vCard 3.0 preferred over older vCard 2.1 formats?

vCard 3.0 provides robust UTF-8 character encoding, structured address sub-fields, and universal native parsing support across Apple iOS Contacts, Google Contacts, and Microsoft Outlook.

How dense will the QR code become if I include extensive contact details?

Including extensive data (like lengthy bio notes or multiple street addresses) increases matrix density, requiring a slightly larger physical print size (at least 3x3 cm) for crisp camera scanning.

Can I print this QR code on my physical paper business cards?

Yes. Downloading the vector SVG format allows graphic designers to scale the QR code to any print size without blurriness or pixelation for offset business card printing.
