1. Choose the perfect QR code for your business card
Your business card can have a QR code based on your requirements. The following are the top QR code types for business cards, but you can choose the one that best suits your needs.

vCard Plus QR code
The best QR code you can have on your business card is the vCard Plus QR code. With this, you can share your contact information such as name, contact number, company, location, and also your social media profiles such as Facebook, LinkedIn, etc. vCard Plus gives you the ease of saving contact by just a single scan, no typing needed. You can add your profile image and background to customize the display page.
When you share your business card, anybody who scans the QR code can instantly get your contact info and save it in their phonebook.
Business Page QR code
If you own a business, this QR code will work perfectly for you!
Business QR code is a mini-website where you can add your business information such as opening hours, location of your business place/store, contact details for customer assistance. In addition to all this, you can also add the call-to-action button to redirect users to any external link (your blog or website).
You can customize your display page with a logo and background image. On a single scan, your customers can view all the information about you and what else you need to make your customers happy?


Social media QR code
If you want to promote your social channels, go for a social media QR code. With a social media QR code, you can promote multiple social profiles such as Facebook, LinkedIn, Pinterest, with a single QR code. Moreover, you can also add your own logo and background to customize the display page. On scanning, all your social profiles will be displayed with the customized display page.
