Digital cards

A Digital card is a digital version of your business card that lives in Apple Wallet (iPhone) or Google Wallet (Android). It's always available in the phone and updates automatically, with nothing for the recipient to do.

What it contains

Your logo and colors.
Text fields (name, job title, company…).
A QR code that, when scanned, opens your profile, your vCard or a link (see Modes & QR code).

Why use it

Always at hand, with no physical card to carry.
Real-time updates: a change to information or design flows to digital cards already installed.
Great alongside the NFC card: people scan your QR even when you don't have your card on you.

In short

You design a digital card template (logo, colors, fields, QR).
You assign it to users, groups or tags.
You email them the link (see Send by email).
Each person adds their card to Apple Wallet or Google Wallet.
The cards then update automatically.

A screenshot of the card in Apple Wallet and Google Wallet shows users the final result nicely.

Apple Wallet or Google Wallet?

The card is added to Apple Wallet on iPhone and to Google Wallet on Android. The install link or QR detects the device: open it from the phone you want to add the card to.

Good to know

Availability of the Wallets module depends on your plan. See Subscription.
The digital card's QR code is stable: its destination is set by the mode and can change without reissuing the card.

Key points

Create a digital card — design the template and assign it.
Send by email — get the cards to your users.
Modes & QR code — what happens on scan.

Troubleshooting

Can't add the card: open the link from the right device (iPhone → Apple Wallet, Android → Google Wallet) and the default browser.
The card doesn't update: open it in the digital card and check that the profile is up to date.
