Business cards
On the back of the card. The paper gets thrown away; the contact entry does not.

Someone scans, taps Save, and you are in their address book — spelled correctly, with the right number. No app on either side, and no link that can rot.

Why use it
What you get.
Saves directly to Contacts on iPhone and Android — no app, no intermediate web page
Carries name, job title, company, mobile, work phone, email, website, address and a note
The details live inside the code, so it keeps working if your website ever moves
Built in your browser — your phone number is never sent to a server
SVG export stays sharp at business-card size or on a two-metre banner
Step by step
How it works
No manual required — but here's the whole flow, start to finish.
-
Fill in the fields that matter — at minimum a name and one way to reach you
-
Leave the rest blank; empty fields are simply left out of the card
-
Keep it short if you can: fewer details means fewer squares, which scans faster in poor light
-
Download the SVG for print, and scan it yourself to check the contact card looks right

FAQ
Questions, answered.
What is a vCard?
It is the standard file format for a contact — the same thing your phone sends when you share a contact by message. Encoding it in a QR code just means the phone can read it from a camera instead of a file.
Why does my code look so dense?
Every field adds data, and more data means more squares. A full card with address and notes can get busy enough to be slow to scan. Drop the fields you do not need — name, mobile and email is usually plenty.
Can I put my logo in the middle?
Yes, and the tool sizes it against the error-correction budget so the code still scans. It checks by actually decoding the result, rather than assuming.
Is it really free, and do the codes expire?
Free with no limits, no signup and no watermark. The code is a plain image once you download it — it is not a redirect through our servers, so it keeps working forever whether or not AroraLabs does.
