QR Code for Business Cards: Share Your Contact Details Instantly

Updated November 4, 2026 · 2 min read

A QR code on a business card turns a piece of paper into a saved contact. Instead of typing your details, new contacts scan once and add you to their phone.

Two ways to do it

• Link to your website or LinkedIn. Short, simple, and easy to scan. Details can change on the page without reprinting.
• vCard (contact card). The code contains your name, company, phone, email and website directly, so it works offline.

Create a vCard QR code

1. Open Loqo and select the Contact tab.
2. Enter your name and only the details you want to share.
3. Add your logo and brand colors.
4. Download SVG and place it on the back of your card.

Design tips

• Keep the code about 2 cm square or larger. More fields means a denser pattern, so include only essentials. See print size guidance.
• Leave the white border around the code.
• Add a tiny label like "Scan to save my contact".
• Use a matte finish.

Privacy note

A vCard code is static, and anyone who sees the card can read what is inside it. Use a business phone and email, not personal ones. Loqo generates the code in your browser, so your details are never uploaded. Read our privacy policy.
