Klik VIP gives you two different ways to create a digital business card: a Vcard Link and a Vcard QR Code.
They can contain similar contact information, but they are not the same thing.
A Vcard Link gives you a shareable online contact page with its own URL. A Vcard QR Code lets somebody scan and access your contact details directly from the QR experience.

What Is a Digital Business Card?
A digital business card is an electronic way to share professional contact information without asking someone to manually type your phone number, email, website or company details.
It is useful for salespeople, consultants, coaches, property agents, exhibitors, corporate teams and anyone who regularly exchanges contact information.

Vcard Link vs Vcard QR Code: What Is the Difference?
| Feature | Vcard Link | Vcard QR Code |
|---|---|---|
| Share as URL | ✅ | Not the main use |
| Best for WhatsApp / email sharing | ✅ | Less convenient |
| Best for printed cards / booths | ✅ via QR | ✅ |
| Custom short URL | ✅ | — |
| Avatar / profile image | ✅ | Contact-data focused |
| Phone numbers & socials | ✅ | ✅ |
| Pixels / SEO / protection controls | ✅ | Different focus |
| QR design controls | Create QR separately | ✅ Themes / Style / Colors / Frame / Branding |
| Print / Download QR | Via QR tool | ✅ |
Use a Vcard Link when you want a reusable online digital business card that can be shared anywhere. Use a Vcard QR Code when scanning and saving contact information is the main action.
Workflow 1: How to Create a Vcard Link in Klik VIP
A Vcard Link gives you a dedicated online contact page with its own Klik VIP URL.
Step 1: Open Vcard Links
Log in to Klik VIP and select Vcard links from the dashboard menu. Create a new Vcard Link.
Step 2: Choose Your Short URL
Klik VIP lets you set the short URL for the Vcard Link.
For example:
Step 3: Add Your Profile and Contact Details
The Vcard Link form allows you to add information such as:
- Avatar
- First name
- Last name
- Website URL
- Company
- Job title
- Birthday
- Street address
- City
- ZIP
- Region
- Country
- Notes
Only publish information that you are comfortable sharing publicly.
Step 4: Add Phone Numbers and Social Profiles
Klik VIP also provides dedicated sections for Phone numbers and Socials.
This is useful when the digital business card needs to do more than show a single phone number.
Step 5: Configure Advanced Vcard Link Options
The Vcard Link workflow includes additional sections for:
- Pixels
- Temporary URL
- Protection
- SEO
- Advanced settings
Step 6: Update and Test the Vcard Link
Save the Vcard Link, open it from another device and check that:
- The correct person and company details appear
- Email and website links are correct
- Phone numbers work
- Social links open correctly
- The page looks good on mobile
When Should You Use a Vcard Link?
A Vcard Link is especially useful when you want to share one online business identity in several places.
Email Signature
Social Media

One Klik VIP Vcard Link
Because the contact information lives online, the same URL can be reused across different channels.
Workflow 2: How to Create a Vcard QR Code in Klik VIP
Klik VIP also has a dedicated Vcard option inside its QR Code creator.
This is a different workflow from creating a Vcard Link.
Step 1: Open QR Codes
From the Klik VIP dashboard, select QR codes and create a new QR code.
Step 2: Select Vcard
Klik VIP offers several QR-code types. Select Vcard.
Step 3: Enter the Contact Information
The Vcard QR Code form includes fields such as:
- Name
- First name
- Last name
- Website URL
- Company
- Job title
- Birthday
- Street address
- City
- ZIP
- Region
- Country
- Note
You can also add Phone numbers and Socials.
Step 4: Customise the QR Code
This is one of the biggest strengths of Klik VIP's dedicated QR workflow.
You can customise:
- Themes
- Style
- Colors
- Frame
- Branding
Step 5: Test the QR Code
Klik VIP itself reminds users to test the QR code with a scanner before using it in production.
That step is important because a QR code may eventually be printed on:
- Business cards
- Booth displays
- Name tags
- Posters
- Presentation slides
- Counter displays
Step 6: Print or Download
Once the QR code is ready, use the available Print or Download options.
Always test the actual downloaded or printed version before producing it in large quantities.

The two tools do not have to compete.
The Vcard Link handles online sharing. The Vcard QR Code handles scan-based contact sharing.
Where Can You Use Them?
Printed Business Card
Add a Vcard QR Code with a clear call to action:
Exhibition Booth
Display a larger QR code so visitors can connect without taking a paper brochure or card.
Name Tag or Lanyard
Turn your name tag into a networking tool.
Presentation Slide
Your final slide can say:
Scan to Save My Contact
WhatsApp or Email
For online sharing, send the Vcard Link directly rather than forcing the recipient to scan a QR code displayed on the same phone.
Vcard Link vs Bio Link
A Vcard Link is mainly about your professional identity and contact information.
A Bio Link is designed to organise multiple destinations and actions such as:
- Website
- Shop
- Booking
- Promotions
- Social media

Digital Business Card Best Practices
- Use business contact details. Avoid publishing personal information unnecessarily.
- Keep the information current. Check phone numbers, email, website and company information regularly.
- Use a clear QR call to action. “Scan to Save My Contact” is much better than only “Scan Me”.
- Test before printing. Scan the final QR from the actual size and distance you plan to use.
- Use the right workflow. A Vcard Link is better for online sharing; a Vcard QR Code is ideal for scan-based offline use.
Final Verdict
Klik VIP gives you two useful ways to share your professional contact information.
Use a Vcard Link when you want a reusable online digital business card with its own shareable URL and additional settings.
Use a Vcard QR Code when your main goal is fast scan-to-contact sharing on business cards, booths, name tags, posters or presentation slides.
And for a complete digital business-card strategy, use both: one for online sharing and one for offline scanning.
