About this tool

Enter as many or as few details as you like: name, organisation, job title, work and mobile phone, email, website, postal address and a note. The tool builds a vCard 3.0 card (RFC 2426), the format phones and address books import. Commas, semicolons, backslashes and line breaks are escaped, long lines are folded at 75 bytes without splitting a character, so names in Greek or other alphabets stay intact, and phone numbers are reduced to digits and a leading plus. Scanning the code with a phone camera offers to add the contact. A card with many fields makes a denser code that is harder to scan from far away or when printed small, so keep it to what people need, and use higher error correction only if you add a logo or print on a rough surface. Nothing is uploaded: the code is made in your browser.

How to use it

  1. Enter a name or an organisation, the only required fields.
  2. Add phone, email, website and address as needed.
  3. Check the preview, then scan it with your phone to confirm it saves the contact.
  4. Download the PNG for a business card or email signature.

Common problems

The code looks too dense to scan
Remove fields you do not need, such as the note or address, or make the image larger. Fewer characters mean bigger squares.
Accents or Greek letters look wrong after scanning
Most phones read them correctly. If an old scanner app shows garbled text, try the phone camera or another app.
The phone only shows text, not a contact
Some scanner apps show the raw card. The phone camera and most address-book apps offer to save it.
