How to Create a Digital Business Card in 5 Minutes

You do not need a designer or developer. A digital business card is a mobile profile page that you can share by link, QR code or NFC tap. Here is how to build one quickly.

How to Create a Digital Business Card in 5 Minutes

Step 1: Sign up

Create a free account with Taploe. You only need an email to start.

Step 2: Add your identity

Upload a photo or logo, then add your name, job title and company. Add a short sentence about what you do.

Add phone, email, website and the social profiles you actually use. Consider adding a booking link and a WhatsApp button. Read our guide on what to put on a digital business card.

Step 4: Choose how to share it

  • Link: paste it in your email signature, LinkedIn bio and messages.
  • QR code: show it on your phone or print it on materials.
  • NFC card: tap to share in person. See how NFC business cards work.

Step 5: Test it

Open your link on a different phone. Check that the save-contact button, phone and email buttons all work.

Step 6: Upgrade when you are ready

When you want the in-person wow factor, order a custom NFC business card or a premium metal card that opens the same profile.
