Decoding the Differences: Digital Business Cards for Companies vs Personal Use

Exploring the Convenience of#nbsp;Digital Business Cards for#nbsp;Personal Use

A#nbsp;digital business card for personal use is#nbsp;essentially a#nbsp;smartphone-optimized web page where you can input your information through your personal account. Saving this digital business card to#nbsp;your contacts is#nbsp;as#nbsp;easy as#nbsp;two taps.

You can share your digital business card in#nbsp;various ways:

Offer the recipient to#nbsp;scan the#nbsp;QR code of#nbsp;the business card using their phone camera
QR#nbsp;readers are built into the cameras of#nbsp;all modern smartphones. The#nbsp;QR code of#nbsp;the business card is#nbsp;available in#nbsp;the CardEx App or#nbsp;on a#nbsp;CardEx NFC-card if#nbsp;one is#nbsp;issued for your business card
Use a#nbsp;CardEx NFC-card
It #nbsp;is a#nbsp;card with an #nbsp;embedded NFC chip containing a #nbsp;link to #nbsp;the digital business card. By #nbsp;tapping such a #nbsp;card to #nbsp;a #nbsp;smartphone, the user can instantly transfer the contact information to #nbsp;their phone.
Send a#nbsp;link to#nbsp;the digital business card through a#nbsp;chat app, email, or#nbsp;text
With messaging platforms like WhatsApp or#nbsp;Telegram, you can quickly send the link to#nbsp;your digital business card in#nbsp;real-time conversations. Alternatively, use email or#nbsp;texts to#nbsp;customize the message.
