About QR Code vCard Generator

QR Code vCard Generator for Contact Sharing

Create a scannable QR code that saves a contact card (vCard) directly into a phone’s address book. This QR Code vCard Generator lets you fill in contact details, generate a clean QR code preview, and download a ready-to-import VCF file for sharing anywhere.

How QR Code vCard Generator Works

A vCard is a standardized text format used by contact apps. This tool builds a valid vCard (v3.0 or v4.0), then encodes it as a QR code so camera apps and QR scanners can import the contact in seconds. The output stays offline-friendly: the QR code contains the contact data itself, so it works on flyers, badges, menus, and slides without relying on a website.

Step-by-step

  • 1) Enter contact fields: Add name, phone, email, organization, job title, address, and optional notes.
  • 2) Choose vCard version: Pick v3.0 for broad compatibility or v4.0 for modern contact apps.
  • 3) Adjust QR settings: Set size, margin, and error correction to improve scanning reliability.
  • 4) Generate the code: The tool compiles your vCard and renders an SVG QR code preview.
  • 5) Copy or download: Copy the vCard text, download a .vcf file, or save the QR SVG for print and digital use.

Key Features

vCard-ready output

The generator formats fields in a standards-friendly way, including proper vCard headers, name structure, and common properties such as TEL, EMAIL, ORG, TITLE, ADR, URL, and NOTE. Special characters are escaped to keep imports consistent across devices.

Offline contact sharing

Because the QR code contains the vCard payload, recipients can scan and save your contact details even when there is no network connection. This makes it perfect for conferences, trade shows, and physical materials.

Scan-optimized QR settings

Control the QR code size and error correction level to match your use case. Higher correction improves resilience against smudges and print imperfections, while margin helps scanners detect the code boundary.

SVG preview for crisp printing

The tool generates an SVG QR code preview that stays sharp at any resolution. SVG is ideal for print design, signage, and high-DPI screens because it scales without pixelation.

One-click exports

Download a .VCF file that opens in most contact apps, plus an SVG file for your QR code artwork. You can also copy the vCard text to paste into emails, CRM notes, or internal documentation.

Use Cases

  • Business cards: Add a QR code that saves your phone, email, and role instantly.
  • Conference badges: Help attendees exchange contact details quickly with a scan.
  • Team directories: Generate vCards for staff onboarding packets and internal wikis.
  • Customer support lines: Share a service contact with phone, email, and office address.
  • Freelancer portfolios: Pair your website URL with a vCard QR on proposals and invoices.
  • Storefront signage: Provide a “save our contact” QR near the entrance or checkout.
  • Event organizers: Publish organizer contact QR codes on posters and programs.

Whether you need a simple contact QR for a personal number or a complete business identity card, this tool helps you publish a clean, scannable code and a portable VCF file in minutes.

Optimization Tips

Keep essential fields short

QR codes become denser as you add more text. For the best scan performance, prioritize essentials such as name, primary phone, and email. If you must include a long note, consider using a URL QR code that points to a contact page instead.

Use margin and error correction wisely

A visible quiet zone (margin) improves detection, especially on busy backgrounds. If the code will be printed small or might get scratched, increase error correction. For large, clean digital displays, medium correction is often sufficient.

Test on multiple devices

Different phones and camera apps behave differently. After generating your QR code, test with iOS and Android scanners, then adjust size and correction if scans feel slow or inconsistent.

FAQ

It is a QR code that contains contact details formatted as a vCard. When scanned, many devices offer to add the contact to the address book.

vCard 3.0 is widely compatible across older scanners and contact apps. vCard 4.0 is more modern; choose it if your audience mostly uses up-to-date devices.

Long notes, many address lines, or multiple phone numbers increase the data size and make the code denser. Reduce optional fields or increase the rendered size for better scanning.

Yes. Use SVG for crisp printing, keep a clear margin around the code, and test the printed size. If space is tight, remove non-essential fields and raise error correction.

Use the QR code for instant scanning in print and presentations. Share the VCF file when you can send an attachment or link, because it imports with a tap in most contact apps.

Why Choose This Tool

This QR Code vCard Generator focuses on practical output: a standards-friendly vCard payload, a crisp SVG QR code, and downloadable files you can use immediately in real workflows. The interface is designed for fast entry with sensible defaults, so you can test scanning behavior before publishing.

Use it to speed up networking, reduce typing errors, and make your contact details easier to save. Generate a code, test it on a couple of devices, and place it wherever you want people to connect with you.
