Materials for Your Business Card

In addition to the design, you can also individually select the carrier material for your business card. At Spreadly, you can choose between business cards made of PVC, bamboo, and metal.

PVC

PVC is a good choice for physical business cards as the material is waterproof, versatile, and flexible, as well as inexpensive to produce. You have numerous options for color design. Our transparent PVC cards are particularly eye-catching.

Bamboo

Wood is a particularly sustainable material and thus an excellent choice for carrier cards for digital business cards, combining high quality and ecological responsibility. At Spreadly, you can choose cards made of bamboo, which not only emphasize the sustainable orientation of your company but are also very aesthetic.

Metal

NFC chips or QR codes for digital business cards can also be combined with metal cards. These are waterproof, very durable, and have a particularly high-quality appearance. However, they are slightly more expensive than cards made of other materials. The strong material ensures that data transfer is not as fast as with other carrier materials.

Transfer Options for Your Digital Business Card

If you pair a digital business card with a physical business card, the data transfer can be done via both QR code and NFC technology. At Spreadly, you can choose both transfer methods and create the appropriate design in our configurator.

Digital Business Cards with QR Code

If you create a QR code for your digital business card through the configurator and place it on the carrier card, data transfer is done by scanning with a smartphone or tablet camera. The QR code directly leads to your contact profile, which your counterpart can then easily save.

Digital Business Cards with NFC Technology

Particularly innovative is NFC technology for contactless data transfer. For this, a chip card is integrated into the carrier card, which transfers data using Near Field Communication (NFC) technology. Your data is then transmitted over distances of up to 10 cm via radio waves and can be read by NFC-enabled devices. Nowadays, all modern smartphones have this function. The NFC chip itself is very small. Through a card, you protect it from dirt and moisture and can safely store your digital business card in your wallet.

QR Code or NFC – Which Should I Choose?

Both QR code and NFC chip can be used to pair your digital business card with a physical carrier card. In both cases, data can be easily adjusted as you can edit your digital business card at any time through your online profile. However, NFC technology has the advantage that the chip can be completely rewritten each time, giving you more options. The QR code is cheaper to implement and can be easily executed by most web-to-print providers. However, once printed, it cannot be changed. With an NFC business card, you are much more flexible.

Advantages of Digital Business Cards

Digital business cards are becoming increasingly popular. Compared to traditional business cards, they offer numerous advantages:

• Fast, contactless data transfer: With a digital business card, you can transfer your data quickly and contactlessly. Your customers and business partners don’t have to type out your contact details laboriously but have them on their mobile devices within seconds. A digital business card cannot be lost or forgotten.
• Low error rate: When you order a traditional business card from a web-to-print provider, everything has to be perfect. A typo or numerical error cannot be corrected and means you have to reorder. Even when typing out traditional business cards, errors can occur that prevent contact. With a digital business card, these errors can be avoided and quickly corrected in the online profile if necessary.
• Security: Digital business cards ensure that your contact details only reach those they are intended for. In case of loss, the data can be blocked or deleted to prevent unauthorized access.
• Diverse design options: For your digital business card, you can choose an individual design. For example, at Spreadly, you can use our easy-to-use configurator to design your carrier card in your corporate design, with your logo, and in your desired material.
• Easy customization: Using placeholders and templates, the design of the digital business card can be automatically adjusted to the contact details of your team members. This makes creating multiple digital business cards with different contact details as easy as in the web-to-print process.
• Cost efficiency: A digital business card is inexpensive to produce and implement. No training or similar is needed to use it. In the purely digital basic version, the Spreadly business card is completely free. You only pay if you want to unlock certain additional features and opt for a physical carrier card.
• Modern image: A digital business card is part of a holistic modern and digital image. You make it easier for your customers and partners to stay in touch with you.
