Free QR code business card maker
A QR code business card is a QR code that saves your name, number and email to a phone when someone scans it. This free maker builds one in your browser with no sign-up, and gives you the code as a PNG or SVG to print on a card.
Optional. Saves these details on our server and gives you a speak2mycv.com link. Anyone with the link can see them. A link name you choose is easier to guess than the random one we make when you leave it empty. The link is deleted automatically after 90 days.

How to
Make a QR code business card in four steps
Type your details
Add your name and at least one of email, phone or website. Title and company are optional.
Check the code
It redraws as you type. Scan it with your own phone camera before you print anything.
Download it
PNG for a quick print or a screen. SVG for a printer or designer, because it stays sharp at any size. The .vcf is the same contact as a file you can email.
Put it on the card
Print the code at least 2 cm (about 0.8 in) wide, dark on a light background, with a blank border around it.
Questions
Before you print
Is the QR code business card maker really free?
Yes. There is no sign-up, no watermark and no limit on how many codes you make. The code is generated in your browser, and you own the PNG, SVG and .vcf you download.
Do you store what I type?
Not unless you ask us to. The code is drawn in your browser, and what you type is not sent to our servers. If you click Share as a link, we store the six fields you entered for 90 days to serve that link, then delete them automatically. Close the tab without sharing and nothing is kept.
What does the QR code contain?
A vCard, the standard contact file format. That means your details are inside the code itself. It also means anyone who scans it can read every field you filled in, so leave out anything you would not put on a paper card.
Can I change the details after I print the cards?
Not on this kind of code. The details are baked in, so a new number means a new code and a new print run. If your details change often, use a code that points to a page you can edit instead. That is what a Speak2MyCV card does.
Will every phone read it?
Current iPhone and Android cameras read a contact QR code and offer to add the contact. Older phones and some scanner apps may only show the raw text. Scan your code on a second phone before you print a batch.
What size should I print the code?
At least 2 cm (about 0.8 in) square, with a clear border around it. A code with many fields has more dots, so it needs more room. If it scans badly, remove a field or print it larger.
Should I use PNG or SVG?
Use SVG for anything printed professionally, because it scales without going blurry. Use PNG for a document, a slide or an email signature.
What is the difference between this and a digital business card?
This code holds your contact details. A digital business card holds a link to a page that you can update, and the page can do more than hold a number. The digital business card page explains the difference and how to get one free.
Want a card you can edit after printing?
Upload your CV and get a page, a QR code that points to it, and a contact card built from your CV. It is free to start, no card required.
