How to Add a QR Code to Your Business Card
Adding a QR code to your business card lets contacts save your details or open your site instantly — no typing. You can use a vCard QR or a trackable link.
Steps
- Decide: a vCard (offline contact) or a link (updatable + trackable).
- Fill in the details in the Studio.
- Match your brand colors and add a logo if it stays scannable.
- Download SVG for the printer.
Best practices
- Keep the code at least 2×2 cm with a clear quiet zone.
- Test on iPhone and Android before printing a batch.
- Use a dynamic link if your role or number may change.
FAQ
Should I use a vCard or a link on my business card?
A vCard QR saves your contact instantly offline. A link (to a page or dynamic code) lets you update details and track scans. Many people use a dynamic link.
How small can the QR code be on a card?
Aim for at least 2 x 2 cm (0.8 inch). Smaller codes can fail to scan, especially with logos or heavy styling.
What file format should I send to my printer?
Use SVG for crisp printing at any size. PNG at high resolution also works for standard cards.
