A .vcf file is a vCard contact file. Download it to import your details directly into a phone or email client.

Which fields are required?

None are strictly required, but include at least a name plus a phone or email so the card is useful.

Can people edit the contact after scanning?

They can edit their own saved copy, but the QR code itself is fixed.

What is a vCard QR code?

A vCard QR code holds a digital business card — name, organization, phone numbers, email, website and address. Scanning it lets someone save your contact details straight to their phone, without typing.

How to create one

Fill in only the fields you want to share; empty fields are left out of the card. The tool builds a standard vCard 3.0 payload, escaping line breaks and special characters. You can preview the raw vCard text, download the QR code, or export a .vcf file to import directly into a contacts app.

What data the card contains

Everything in the card is visible to anyone who scans it — there's no hidden data and no server call. Share a work card publicly, but think twice before putting a personal mobile or home address on printed material that strangers can scan.

Where to use it

Add a vCard QR code to business cards, email signatures, name badges, trade-show booths and storefront windows so people can save your details in one tap.

Privacy and security

Your contact details are assembled locally and never uploaded. Because the code is static, it can't be repointed — but it also can't be recalled once printed, so only include what you're comfortable sharing.

Limitations

Very complete cards (long addresses plus notes) create dense codes; keep them concise for reliable scanning. A handful of older devices may open the vCard as text rather than a contact.
