The business card that becomes a connection.

Your profile or your company page, as a code. They scan it at the stand, connect on the train, and you are in their network rather than in their bin.

Six looks, made for the professional end of the day.

Pick one and it fills in the generator above. Business card, email footer, office door — each drawn for a surface that is already printed.

Where these earn their keep

01

Business cards

The back of the card, where nothing is printed anyway. A card goes in a pocket and then a drawer; a connection does not.

02

Conference badges and stands

Fifty conversations in two days, and no memory of which was which by Thursday. Connecting takes one scan and happens at the time.

03

Slides, signatures and office doors

The end of a talk, the foot of an email, the outside of a meeting room. Anywhere your name appears without a way to act on it.

Questions people ask

Do I need the whole address, or just my name?

Either. Type the handle from the end of your profile address and we build the rest, or paste the whole thing and it goes through as it is. Tick the box if it is a company page rather than a person — LinkedIn keeps those in different places and a code pointing at the wrong one goes nowhere.

Is this the same as LinkedIn's own QR code?

No. Theirs lives inside the app and is made for one phone showing it to another, which is fine in a corridor and no use on a printed card — the person has to already be in LinkedIn to scan it. This is an ordinary code that any camera reads, which is why it survives being printed.

Should I use this or a contact card code?

A contact card if you want to be reachable today, LinkedIn if you want to be remembered next quarter. They are not competing and a business card has two sides.

Fifty conversations. Fifty connections.
