Why use QR Cat's vCard QR Code Generator?
- One scan to save: they store you as a contact instantly — faster than typing or swapping handles, and it converts best.
- Made for printed cards: export vector SVG for crisp printing, sharp in any corner of the card.
- Details stay local: your contact info is encoded into the vCard in your browser, never uploaded.
- Use it anywhere: not just cards — email signatures, banners, packaging, event badges, an 'add me' code at your shop door. One scan and you're in their phone.
- Free forever, never expires: these are static codes — your content lives inside the image itself, not on our servers. Even if this site shut down, your printed codes keep working — unlike the sites that disable your code when a trial ends and hold it for ransom.
- No watermark, no sign-up: download and go. We don't stamp a logo on your code or make you hand over an email first.
Frequently asked questions
How does scanning save me to their contacts?
vCard is the standard contact format. When someone scans the code with their camera or a scanner app, a contact card with your name, phone, email and more pops up — they tap 'Add to Contacts' and every field is filled in automatically.
How big should the vCard code be on a card, and where?
Print it at least ~2×2 cm (0.8 in), on the back or a front corner, with a clear white margin (quiet zone) around it. Too small or crammed against text and it won't scan. Export SVG for the printer — vector stays sharp scaled up. Unsure? Run it through our Scannability Tester first to check it still decodes when shrunk.
Which fields convert best?
The core four: name, mobile, email, company — plus a website (your site or personal page) makes it complete. More isn't better; include only what the other person needs and you're happy to make public. Phone and email are the most universally supported vCard fields.
Can I include only some details?
Yes. Fill in only the fields you want public; empty ones won't appear in the card they receive. A common set is name, mobile, email, company and website.
Will the site collect my contact details?
No. Every field is only encoded into the QR code in your browser — nothing uploaded or logged.
How do I turn this into a full set of business cards?
Download the vector SVG and drop it into any card template for a printer. If you don't have a logo or template yet, there's a brand-design partner link on the page to build a consistent set from templates — the QR itself is always free; the design is an optional next step.
