vCard QR Code Generator
A vCard QR code stores your full contact information in the vCard 3.0 format. When someone scans it, their phone immediately prompts them to add you as a contact — name, phone, email, company, job title, website, and address all transferred in a single scan. Replace the stack of paper cards with one scannable code that always carries your current details.

How to Create a vCard QR Code
Enter Your Name
Type your first and last name in the respective fields. Both are required to generate a valid vCard. The name appears exactly as entered when the contact is saved on the recipient's device.
Add Your Contact Details
Fill in the fields most relevant to you — phone (international format like +1 555 000 0000), email, organization, job title, website (with https://), and address. All of these are optional.
Customize the Design (Optional)
Open Customize to apply color themes, change the dot style, or embed your company logo. Use error correction level H when adding a logo to keep the code scannable.
Download or Copy
Choose PNG, SVG, or JPG and your preferred resolution, then download or copy the QR code directly to your clipboard for immediate use in digital or print materials.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a vCard QR code?
A vCard QR code stores contact information using the vCard 3.0 standard. When a smartphone camera scans it, the OS recognizes the contact data and prompts the user to save it to their address book.
Which fields are required?
Only the first name and last name are required for a valid vCard QR code. All other fields — phone, email, organization, title, website, and address — are optional. Include as many or as few as needed.
What phone number format should I use?
International format is recommended — for example, +1 555 000 0000 for US numbers. This ensures the number is parsed correctly regardless of where the contact is saved.
How much contact data can a QR code hold?
QR codes can store up to roughly 4,296 alphanumeric characters. A typical vCard with name, phone, email, and address uses a fraction of that. The character counter shows your current data usage.
Will the QR code work on any phone?
Yes. The vCard 3.0 format is supported by iOS, Android, and virtually all modern mobile operating systems. The built-in camera and contacts app handle it natively — no special app required.
Can I add multiple phone numbers or emails?
The current version supports one phone number and one email address. For contacts with multiple entries, you can add supplementary details in the address field as a text-based workaround.
