How it works

How NFC digital business cards work: tap, save, follow up.

Hold your card near any phone and your contact page opens. It is also called an NFC business card, after the chip that makes the tap work. They save you with one tap and can send you their details back. No app on either phone.

$49 a card. Two-way lead capture included free with every card.

They save you, and can share back

They tap Save Contact and you are in their phone, spelled right. Then they are asked if they want to send you their details. It is optional: they can skip.

Follow up from your dashboard

When someone shares back, you get an email with their details, and they are saved in your Business Card Leads list. Call or email while they still remember you.

After the tap

What happens after someone taps your card

The card opens a page you control, so it keeps working long after the meeting.

  • Change your details anytime. New number or job title? Edit it in your dashboard and the next tap shows the new info. Same card.
  • See every tap. Each one is counted with the time, the city and the type of phone.
  • Keep leads in one list. Name, phone, email and their message, marked read or unread.
  • Use it again and again. One card for every meeting, event and trade show. Nothing to reorder.

Digital business card questions

Does the other person need an app?

No. Their phone reads the card on its own and your contact page opens in the browser. No app on your phone either.

Which phones can read it?

iPhone XR and newer, and almost every modern Android phone, read it with a tap. Older phones can scan the printed QR code instead.

Is lead capture extra?

No. Two-way lead capture is included free with every card. See the business card benefits.

What if they do not want to share their details?

Sharing back is optional. They can tap Skip and still save your contact. You only get the details they choose to send.

Can I change my details after the card is printed?

Yes. The card opens a page you control. Edit it in your dashboard and the next tap shows the new details. No reprinting.

Is there a monthly fee?

No. You pay once: $49 a card, with free shipping. You need a free KudoTaps account to activate it.
