Create a vCard - how to make your business card

With a vCard you have your own electronic business card, which you can distribute to customers or acquaintances by mail or via an online storage of your choice. This card contains all the important personal information and can also be created or read using any popular mail program.

How to create your personal vCard

A vCard usually contains all your personal contact information. This includes your email address, phone number, name and date of birth, and also your address. However, it is up to you which information you ultimately provide. Once you have created the vCard, you can distribute it to other people by e-mail or via a memory of your choice. Moreover, there is an option to convert the card into a QR code online and send it that way. To create an electronic business card, you have several options.
