By Mathias Pihl Updated: 28 of Apr 2026 This would be my bio - a selling text about me, myself and I. I've been noticing something interesting lately - more and more people are handing over digital business cards instead of the old-school paper ones. And honestly? I love it. There's something so clean about having your whole contact info right in your phone, ready to share with just a tap. But here's the thing - there are about a million ways to make these digital cards, and not all of them are great. Some want you to sign up for accounts, some cost money, and some are just overly complicated. So I put together this method that I think works pretty well. Here's what makes it special: Runs right on your iPhone Totally free No account needed - just download and go The QR code automatically saves your info to the recipient's contacts (reading QR code and vCard format are the only requirements) Let me walk you through exactly how to do it in three simple steps. Step 1: Generate Your QR Code First things first - grab your laptop or use the desktop (yes, doing this on a computer is easier). Go to a QR code generator that supports vCard format. There are plenty out there, but just make sure you pick one that actually supports vCard and isn't harvesting your personal data in the process. Fill in your contact details in the form, then click Generate QR code. Tip: Scan the QR code with your phone camera to test it. When it pops up, your phone should offer to save the contact. If everything looks good, you're ready for the next step! Step 2: Build Your Card in Wallet Creator Now grab your iPhone and download Wallet Creator from the App Store (it's made by at2 GmbH). Open the app and tap the (+) button to start a new card. The app will ask you to pick a card type. Choose storeCard. (I find that it works best.) Continue and fill in your details: Organisation name: Your company name Header text: Your name Label: Your phone number Value: Your job title Tap (+) again to add an Info field: Label: (leave this blank) Value: Your email address One more tap on (+) and add a Barcode. Now point your phone at the QR code you created in Step 1. Done - your basic card is ready!... Step 3: Make It Look Professional Now for the fun part - let's make this card actually look like your brand. Make sure you put your unique spin on it. Grab your logo: Go to your company website, right-click on the logo, and save it. Maybe pop it in iCloud Drive so you can easily grab it from your phone later. Get your colours: If you've got a marketing team, ask them for your brand colours in hexadecimal format (both the background and text colours). If that's not an option, no worries - you can find and adjust them yourself. On a Mac, open the Digital colour Meter app. Go to View → Display Values → as Hexadecimal, then just hover over the colours you want on your company's website. Write down those hex codes (ignore the "0x" at the start - so for beige, you'd get something like F8F1E8). Back in the Wallet Creator app: Tap Background and enter your background hex code Do the same for Values and Label with your text colour Tap the logo icon next to your header and upload the logo you saved When it looks right, tap the + in the top left corner and hit Add to Apple Wallet. That's it - you've got yourself a real digital business card! Now whenever you meet someone, just open your Wallet, tap your card, and let them scan it. Their phone will grab all your details instantly. No paper cards, no awkward fumbling - just modern networking done right. Navigate back!
