NFC Business Card? Start With a Digital Card That Works on Every Phone
Tap-to-share NFC cards look great at a meeting. But the chip is only a doorway. What really matters is the page it opens. VCardPulse gives you that page: a live digital business card with its own QR code and link, which anyone can open by scanning, tapping a link on WhatsApp, or tapping an NFC tag you point at it.
- ✅ First month FREE
- ✅ No credit card
- ✅ Then ₹70/month
How it works
- 1
Create your card
Type your details or let AI scan your paper visiting card.
- 2
Personalise it
Add a photo, logo, links, a catalogue and your UPI ID.
- 3
Share it
Send the link, print the QR, and optionally write the link to an NFC tag.
NFC vs QR in 30 seconds
| NFC card | QR digital card | |
|---|---|---|
| How it opens | Tap on an NFC-enabled phone | Scan with any phone camera |
| Works from a distance | No (a few cm) | Yes: counters, posters, screens |
| Works on WhatsApp | Only via a link | Yes, share the link directly |
| Extra hardware | A physical card or tag per person | None, print the QR anywhere |
| Updating details | Depends on the profile behind it | Edit anytime, same link and QR |
In short, NFC is a nice extra for in-person networking. A QR card is the base that works everywhere.
Already have an NFC tag? Point it to your VCardPulse card
VCardPulse doesn't sell NFC cards. But if you own a rewritable NFC tag or card, you can usually write any web link to it with a free NFC writing app. Use your VCardPulse link, such as vcardpulse.com/c/your-name, and one tap opens the same card your QR code opens.
That means one profile for tap, scan and WhatsApp, and one place to keep everything up to date. Check with your tag's seller whether it can be rewritten.

Why start with QR
- Every phone can open it. Scanning QR codes is already a habit in India thanks to UPI.
- There's nothing to buy or lose. Print the QR on your existing paper cards.
- It works beyond the handshake: on shop counters, invoices, Instagram, email signatures and WhatsApp.
- It's always current. Change your number and your link and QR stay the same.
Frequently asked questions
Does VCardPulse sell NFC business cards?
No. VCardPulse makes QR-based digital business cards. You can write your card link to an NFC tag you buy elsewhere.
Is a QR card as good as an NFC card?
For most businesses, yes, and it's often more practical. QR works on more phones, from a distance and in print. NFC adds a premium tap at in-person meetings.
Will my NFC tag still work if I change my details?
Yes. If your tag points to your VCardPulse link, just edit your card. The link stays the same.
How much does it cost?
The first month is free with all features. After that it's ₹70/month per card, with no auto-debit.
