Sharing contact info at an event, on a business card, or on signage is much easier when someone can just scan a QR code instead of typing your details by hand.

What Is the vCard Generator?

Fill in name, organization, title, phone, email, website, and address, and this tool builds a standard vCard 3.0 file plus a scannable QR code that phones recognize automatically as a contact card.

How to Use It

  1. Open the tool at /tools/vcard-generator.
  2. Fill in your contact details.
  3. Scan the generated QR code with a phone camera to add it directly, or download the .vcf file.

Key Features

  • Standard vCard 3.0 format (RFC 2426) — compatible with Contacts apps, Outlook, and Google Contacts.
  • Live scannable QR code, recognized automatically by iOS and Android camera apps.
  • Downloadable .vcf file for email or file-based sharing.
  • Proper escaping of special characters per the vCard spec.

When to Use This Tool

  • Adding a scannable contact QR code to a business card, email signature, or conference badge.
  • Quickly sharing your contact details without dictating them over a phone call.
  • Generating a .vcf file for bulk import into a contacts app.
