Can I update a vCard QR code later?

No — because the details are stored in the code itself, changing them means making a new code. The upside is that it never expires and doesn't depend on any service.

How big should a vCard QR code be on a business card?

At least 2 cm (0.8 inch) square, with a clear margin around it. If the code looks very dense, remove optional fields like the address or note so it scans reliably.

About this tool

The QR code contains a vCard (version 3.0), the standard electronic business card format read by iPhone and Android cameras, Outlook, Gmail and most contact apps. Scanning shows a preview of the contact with an option to save it — no typing, no misspelled email addresses.

Only the fields you fill in are included. More information makes the code denser, with smaller squares that are harder to scan from a distance — on a printed business card, keep it to the essentials and print the code at least 2 cm (about 0.8 inch) wide. Commas, semicolons and line breaks are escaped correctly so details aren't split into the wrong fields.

The code is static: your details are stored inside it, not on a server, so it never expires, doesn't track scans and works without this website. It's generated in your browser.
