Static card: it can't be changed once printed
Your details are written into the QR code. To change them without reprinting, create your Reco.to mini-site with a contact card: the QR code leads to your page, and you update it whenever you like.
Paper card or digital card?
Paper cards get lost or retyped by hand. The QR code puts your details straight into the phone. The mini-site keeps them up to date.

Create the mini-siteDetails that change? Switch to the mini-site
Your Reco.to mini-site carries a contact card people can save. The QR code and the NFC card lead to the page: change a number, the page follows.
Editable at any time
New job, new number: update the page without reprinting. The next scans save the new version.
A button to save the contact
Visitors add your card to their contacts from the page, with your photo and links. If the page opens inside Instagram or Messenger, a fallback page still lets them save it.
All your links on one page
Website, social profiles, Google reviews: what a paper card can't hold.

Frequently asked questions
Does the contact save on iPhone and Android?
Yes. On iPhone, the camera recognises the QR code and offers to create the contact. On Android, the camera or Google Lens does it, depending on the model. The .vcf file also opens in the contacts app on both systems.
Do I need to install an app?
No, neither you nor the person scanning: the phone camera is enough.
Can I edit my card after printing it?
No: your details are written into the QR code itself. If they change, you need to generate a new QR code. For an editable card, create a Reco.to mini-site with a contact card: the QR code leads to your page, which you update whenever you like. Discover the mini-site
NFC card or QR code: which one?
A QR code is scanned with the camera and can be printed anywhere, even on a paper card. An NFC card opens when a phone comes close, no aiming needed: it leads to a link, such as your mini-site, where people save your details. The two work well together.
What does the QR code contain?
A contact card in vCard format: name, job title, company, phone, email, website and address, depending on what you entered. The more information, the denser the QR code: keep it to the essentials if it will be printed small.
Is it really free?
Yes, with no sign-up and no expiry date: the QR code contains your details and works as long as it stays readable.
What do you do with my details?
Nothing: they are used to draw the preview, then forgotten. We don't save them and don't use them to contact you.
