NFC Business Cards

A Blinq NFC Business Card is a smart, reusable card embedded with Near Field Communication (NFC) technology. With a single tap against a smartphone, it instantly shares your digital contact details, social profiles, website links, payment links and more. No app download is required by the person receiving your information. It works directly through their phone's browser on any device type, iOS or Android.

Simply tap your NFC Business Card against the back of someone's smartphone, iOS or Android. Alternatively, you can also scan the QR code on the back of the card. A notification will appear on their screen with a link to your Blinq profile. They can then view all your details, save your contact information directly to their phone, and connect with you on social media. There is nothing to download or install on their end.

No. The recipient does not need the Blinq app or any other app. When you tap your NFC card to their phone, your Blinq profile opens directly in their mobile browser. It is completely seamless for both parties.

Yes, both. Blinq NFC Business Cards work with iPhone 11 and all newer models, which have the required NFC chip built in. The NFC antenna is located on the back of the phone near the camera, so hold your Blinq card there for a moment and the notification will appear. They are also compatible with virtually all Android phones that support NFC (the vast majority of modern Android devices that support Google Pay); tap the card against the center back of the phone. For older iPhone models (iPhone XS and below) or phones without NFC enabled, the card also features a QR code that can be scanned using the standard camera app.

In most cases, yes. NFC signals can pass through standard phone cases without issues. However, very thick rugged cases or cases with built-in metal plates (often used for magnetic car mounts) can interfere with the NFC signal. If tapping does not work through a case, simply use the QR code as a backup, or ask the recipient to briefly remove their case.

Yes. When someone views your Blinq profile, they can tap a button to download your contact information as a vCard directly into their phone's contact list. This includes your name, phone number, email, company, job title, and any other details you have added.

Yes. Our essential and custom NFC cards come with a QR code printed on them by default.

Blinq NFC cards are printed onto a premium plastic canvas using high quality UV laser printers that deliver a sleek, professional finish. Every card is embedded with an NFC chip and encoded before shipping. All NFC custom cards are printed in the USA.

Your Blinq NFC Business Card comes ready to use right out of the box. After purchasing, you will receive setup instructions via email. Simply tap your NFC Business Card to your phone or scan the QR code to get started.

Blinq NFC Business Cards are water resistant and can withstand light exposure to moisture such as rain or accidental spills. However, they are not designed for prolonged submersion in water.

Blinq NFC Business Cards are designed to last for years with normal use. The NFC chip has no battery and does not degrade over time. The card itself is made from durable PVC plastic and finished with UV printing, so it holds up well in wallets, cardholders, and pockets.

Yes. Because a Blinq NFC Business Card replaces the need for traditional paper business cards, it significantly reduces waste and your environmental footprint. Instead of reprinting hundreds of cards every time your details change, you update your digital profile and keep the same card for life.
