How to create a digital business card that people actually keep and use

This task can be performed using Kilala

Your next business card isn't a card — it's a link

Create a useful digital card

Decide what someone should do after opening your digital business card: save your contact details, book a call, view your work, or send an enquiry. Include only the name, role, proof, and action needed to support that outcome.

Build the profile, set one clear primary action, and publish a single reusable link. Add it to your email signature and social profiles, then test the page, contact saving, forms, and analytics on both mobile and desktop.

What to expect from an ideal product

  1. Share instantly through links or QR codes instead of handing out paper cards that end up in the trash
  2. Store your card directly in Apple Wallet so contacts can save it with one tap and find it easily later
  3. Track who views and clicks on your card with built-in analytics to see which contacts are actually engaging
  4. Create multiple cards for different situations using 12 professional templates that look way better than basic business cards
  5. Add your digital card to email signatures so every message you send becomes a networking opportunity

More about scan testing

Treat the QR code as a separate sharing channel. Test it before printing or presenting, because poor contrast, small sizing, and stale destinations can make an otherwise useful profile inaccessible.

  • Scan from two phones at a normal viewing distance.
  • Confirm the page loads and every contact action works.
  • Use an editable destination so updates do not require reprinting.
