QR Code for a Business Card

A printed card ends up in a drawer. A vCard code on the same card gets your details into the phone, where they are searchable a year later. One scan, one tap to save.

Every filled field lengthens the payload — leave the ones you do not need blank for a cleaner symbol.

Why Use This Tool

Make a free vCard QR code for your business card. One scan saves your name, title, phone, email, and website straight into the phone's contacts.

Free, Unlimited, No Signup

Generate as many QR codes as you need without an account, a trial, or a credit card. Free codes carry a small linkutm wordmark in the bottom corner; create an account to replace it with your own logo or remove it entirely.

Your Data Never Leaves the Browser

Every code is encoded and rendered locally in JavaScript. Wi-Fi passwords, contact details, and campaign URLs are never uploaded to a server or logged anywhere.

Designed, Not Just Generated

Twelve ready-made designs pairing eight module styles with shaped finder patterns, brand colours, and gradients. Export a code that looks like it belongs on your packaging, not like a default black square.

Print-Ready PNG, SVG, and PDF

Download a 1200px PNG for digital, a vector SVG that scales to a billboard without a single soft edge, or a print-ready PDF. Copy straight to the clipboard when you just need it in a deck.

How It Works

  1. 1

    Fill in the contact fields

    Name, company, job title, phone, email, website. Everything you enter is encoded into the pattern itself and stays in your browser — nothing is uploaded or stored anywhere.

  2. 2

    Keep it short so the pattern stays readable

    A vCard carries far more characters than a URL, and every field you add makes the symbol denser. Include the two or three ways you actually want to be contacted and leave out the postal address unless people genuinely post you things.

  3. 3

    Skip the centre logo on this one

    A logo in the middle covers modules the scanner needs. On a dense vCard pattern printed at business-card size, that is the difference between a scan and a shrug. Save the logo for a roomier URL code.

  4. 4

    Download the SVG for your printer

    Print shops want vector. The SVG scales cleanly at any size and will not go fuzzy the way a stretched PNG does. Print at 2cm minimum on a card, with clear space around all four sides.

vCard code or a link to a profile page

A vCard code encodes your details in the pattern. It works offline, it needs no server, and it will still work in ten years — but it can never be updated, so a new phone number means a new print run. A URL code pointing at a profile page you control is editable forever and lets you track scans, but it needs a live page and an internet connection at the moment of scanning. Sales teams who change territory tend to want the second one. Everyone else is well served by the first.

Where to put it on the card

The back, in a corner, at around 2cm square, with genuine white space around it. Do not print it over a photo or a coloured block that kills contrast, and do not shrink it to fit a crowded front face — a code too small to scan is worse than a card with no code, because the person tries, fails, and stops trying.

Beyond the card itself

The same vCard code earns its keep on a conference badge, an email signature, a trade-show backdrop, and the door of a service van. Badge codes in particular do well: people scan while queueing, when they have nothing else to do and their phone is already out.

Free Tool vs linkutm Platform

Every code on this page is free to make and never expires. The linkutm platform adds the parts a printed code cannot do on its own — editing the destination, and counting the scans.

A dynamic QR code keeps the same printed pattern while you change where it points, and shows you every scan — when, where, and on what device.
