How to Add a QR Code to Your Business Card

A business card with a QR code turns a piece of paper someone might lose into a link that lives permanently in their phone.

Pick what the code should do

A code can open a digital contact card (vCard), your LinkedIn profile, a personal landing page, or a scheduling link. Choose one clear action rather than trying to cram everything in.

Keep the card layout clean

The code needs enough contrast and enough size to scan reliably even at business-card scale — usually no smaller than about 2cm square.

Test it before the print run

Print a single proof copy first and scan it with a few different phones before ordering hundreds of cards.

Use a dynamic code

Job titles, phone numbers, and companies change more often than people expect. A dynamic code lets you update the destination without throwing away a box of cards.
