What is a QR code vCard?
A vCard is simply a file that contains your name, company name and contact information such as phone numbers, address, and e-mail address. Some vCard files may also contain photographs and audio clips. It is usually transmitted via e-mail or downloaded from your Web site.
A QR code vCard uses QR codes to share the information to your business contacts, friends and colleagues.
A vCard makes it easier for your contacts to store your information so that it could be easily accessed when they need to contact you.
