MeCard versus vCard

MeCard stores the essentials of a vCard, including name, phones, emails, company, address, websites and a note, in a much shorter format. Shorter data means fewer modules in the QR code, so it stays readable even when printed small.

MeCard Plus extends the classic format with a job title, company website, work email, LinkedIn and WhatsApp links, and can upgrade your card to a full vCard with one click.

How to create a MeCard QR code

  1. Fill in your first and last name, company, job title and contact details.
  2. Add your LinkedIn profile and WhatsApp number; they are saved as links any phone can open.
  3. Choose colours, shapes and a logo, then confirm that the scan status reads Scan verified.
  4. Download the code, save a .vcf contact file, or print a ready-made business card.

Printing a contact QR code that scans

Keep the printed code at least 2 cm wide, with a clear quiet zone around it, and use dark modules on a light background. MeCard Plus warns you when your colours have too little contrast and checks every design by decoding it before you download, so you can print with confidence.

Frequently asked questions

Do iPhones support MeCard QR codes?

Yes. The iPhone camera and most Android camera apps recognise MeCard codes and offer to add the contact.

When should I use vCard instead of MeCard?

Choose vCard when you need labeled phone numbers such as mobile, work or fax, separate social profile fields or a photo link. Choose MeCard when you want the smallest, fastest-scanning code.

Can I add a logo to a MeCard QR code?

Yes. Upload a logo in the Logo section. Error correction switches to the highest level automatically so the code still scans with part of it covered.
