What is a digital business card?
A digital business card is a personal page with your name, photo, contact details and buttons to call, email or message you directly. You share it via a QR code or a simple link. The other person scans it, taps "Save contact" and has you in their phone — no app, no hassle.
The big difference from paper: you see what happens. Who views your card, which button is tapped and who leaves their details. With a stack of printed cardboard you never know any of that.
Step 1: gather your basic details
Name, job title, business name, phone number and email address. Keep your title concrete: "Hairdresser in Utrecht" says more than "Owner". A good profile photo makes the difference — people remember faces, not logos.
Step 2: create your card
At EasyID you fill in your details and see a live preview of your card. Choose your own colours and font so it matches your branding. Free, no credit card needed.
Step 3: activate the right buttons
- ✓Call and WhatsApp — the two buttons that get freelancers the most responses
- ✓Book an appointment — clients choose their own time, you receive the confirmation
- ✓"Share your details" — they leave their name and number, you call back
- ✓Directions — handy when clients are coming to your premises
Step 4: share your QR code everywhere
Your QR code is your new signature. Put it on your quote and invoice, stick it on your company van, hang it on the wall of your premises and add the link to your Instagram bio and email signature. Every place where people encounter you is a place where they can save you.
Step 5: turn it into a prize draw
Want people to actually scan your card? Add a prize campaign. With Scan & Win, anyone who scans your card spins a prize wheel or predicts the final score of a match — and every participant leaves their name and email. At a trade fair or busy Saturday that yields dozens of warm contacts.
Step 6: follow up
The card is the beginning, the follow-up is the revenue. Check your leads inbox, call back within 24 hours and you are ahead of the competitor still searching through their stack of paper cards.
Frequently asked questions
What does a digital business card cost?
At EasyID a digital business card is free. If you want extras such as analytics, custom branding and Scan & Win prize campaigns, Pro costs €69 per year (approx. €5.75 per month).
Do I need an app?
No. Your card is a web page that works on every phone. The recipient does not need to install anything, and neither do you.
Does it work without an NFC card?
Yes. A QR code or link is enough. A physical NFC card can be a nice addition, but you do not need one to get started.
Can I update my details later?
Always. New number or new job title? Update it once and everyone who ever received your card immediately sees the current version.
