Create a QR code for a vCard contact

For shops, teams and individuals sharing information in one scan, this generator prepares a practical handoff. Pack a vCard contact into a QR code.

Pack a vCard contact into a QR code. Adjust the design, check the preview and download a code ready to scan, with no account required.

How to use

Fill in the full name, organization, phone number and email address that belong on the contact card.
Pick a resolution of 256 px, 512 px or 768 px to balance clarity with the available space.
Set the error tolerance to M, Q or H depending on how clean the final print will be.
Generate the code, inspect the preview, then clear the fields before preparing another contact.

Example

A sales representative prints a contact QR on a conference badge. Someone scans it and can save the name, company, phone and email directly, which makes follow-up easier after a short conversation. Try the import on a few phones before the event to avoid surprises at the booth.

Limits and formats

Different phones may display or save the contact fields in slightly different ways, so test the result on your target devices.
A typo in the phone number or email address is encoded as entered, so proofread before generating the code.
The form covers basic details but does not include every possible vCard field.
A dense contact code can be harder to scan if it is printed very small or on a low-contrast background.

Where processing happens

The contact data is assembled in your browser. No personal details are transmitted while the QR code is created, and clearing the form removes them from the visible fields.

Frequently asked questions

Can someone edit the contact after scanning?

Yes, once the contact appears on the phone, the person can choose to save it and edit it in their contacts app. The QR code itself does not lock the information or keep it synchronized.

Is this suitable for a work badge?

It can work well on a badge if the code is printed large enough and the contact details are correct. Remember that anyone who scans the badge can read those details, so use only information you are comfortable sharing.

What if the scanner shows raw text instead of a contact?

Some scanner apps only display the encoded vCard text and do not offer a save button. Try the built-in camera app or a contacts-aware scanner, then confirm that the fields are recognized correctly.
