What is a digital business card?
A digital business card (also called a virtual business card) is a modern and paperless way to share your professional and/or company contact details. These details can include your name, professional summary, phone number, business address, web URLs, social media links, and much more.
Digital or electronic business cards safely store your contact information in an online format known as .vcf (virtual contact file). You can create a digital business card in less than 5 minutes and share it as an Apple or Google Wallet pass, QR Code, or URL.
Why should you move from paper to digital business cards?
Unlike paper business cards, digital business cards do not have space restrictions. You can include as many phone numbers, URLs, and other details on your card as you wish.
Need to update your paper business card? You’ll have to recreate and reprint. With e-business cards, you can update your card content at the backend whenever required—without reprinting.
Get rid of physical and paper-based card sharing with virtual business cards—share your cards as an Apple or Google Wallet pass, QR Code, or web URL.
The average annual cost to print paper business cards in the US is $194 per team member. E-business cards only cost $48 – $72 annually per person.
Physical business cards take 30 days, on average, to procure. You can create digital business cards for yourself or your team within 5 minutes. Each card is ready for sharing upon creation.
Nearly all alternatives to paper business cards (even NFCs) involve physical elements. You can create digital business cards virtually, making them 100% paperless and sustainable.
