How to Share Your Signify Digital Business Card

The web sharing tools let you quickly show your QR code, copy your public card link, or download your QR code as an image. This is the most versatile method, especially if you are sitting at a computer and preparing to send an email or a direct message.

1. Open Your Cards and choose Share on the Signify card you want to send.
2. In the Share your card modal, you can display the QR code directly on your screen or select Copy to copy the public card link.
3. Select Download QR to save the QR code as an image file. You can then insert this image into a presentation, a printed flyer, or an email signature.

You can also download the QR code from the card's quick actions on its /mycard/{card_id} page.

The public link opens your Signify digital business card in any standard web browser. Anyone can scan the QR code using their phone's native camera, and they do not need the Signify app simply to view the card.

Signify users can scan another Signify QR code directly within the Android or iOS app. When the card opens in the app, the recipient can review the digital business card and choose what to do next.

Depending on the available actions, they can save the card to Contacts or send one of their own Signify cards back as a lead. This "Two-Way Connect" feature is incredibly powerful for sales teams and recruiters who need to capture the other person's details just as securely as they share their own.

Signify app deep links can also open shared card URLs directly in the app when it is installed, providing a faster, richer experience for Signify users compared to the standard web browser view.

When networking or meeting someone in person, you may not want to open the full Signify app every time you share your card. A Signify widget provides quicker access to your sharing QR code, saving you valuable seconds and looking incredibly professional.

Phone widget

Add the Signify widget to your phone's home screen or lock screen. This allows you to bring up your digital business card sharing QR code with a single swipe or tap, bypassing the need to search for an app icon in the middle of a conversation.

Smartwatch

A Signify smartwatch widget provides another convenient way to bring up your card. If your phone is in your pocket or bag, a quick glance at your wrist allows you to display your QR code instantly, making the exchange feel effortless and futuristic.

Sharing a Signify digital business card does not require the recipient to install the app. Someone who receives your public card link can open it in their phone's browser and view your professional information instantly.

From the public card page, people who do not use Signify can also save your contact details as a VCF file. This is a critical feature for universal compatibility. It means that whether the recipient is using an iPhone, an Android, or even a desktop computer, they can add your information directly to their native address book without signing up for anything.

As the card owner, you can also use the page's Download QR code quick action to save your QR code image for use in presentations, printed materials, email signatures, websites, or other places where you want to share your card.

Apple Wallet and Google Wallet passes for Signify cards are coming soon.

This planned sharing option will provide another convenient way to keep your Signify card accessible from a mobile wallet, right alongside your boarding passes, event tickets, and loyalty cards. We are constantly working to expand the ways you can access and share your professional identity.

For in-person networking, you can order a custom Signify NFC card and link it to one of your Signify digital business cards.

Depending on current availability in the configurator, physical card options can include glossy plastic, wood, and black metal. These cards offer a premium, tactile experience that bridges the gap between traditional paper cards and digital profiles.

Share by tapping the NFC card

Tap the physical Signify NFC card against an NFC-enabled phone. The phone can open the digital card linked to the physical card, giving the other person immediate access to your professional profile. This "tap-to-share" experience is often the fastest and most memorable way to exchange information.

Share by scanning the QR code

The physical card can also provide a QR code on its back. Someone can scan that code with their phone camera to open the same linked Signify digital card. This serves as a reliable backup if the recipient's phone does not have NFC enabled.

Update your card without replacing the physical card

One of the most significant benefits of linking the physical card to your digital card is that you can continue updating your information in Signify. When you change your card details, people using the same NFC tap or QR link can see the updated digital profile.

This means you do not need to reprint the physical card every time your job title, company, contact details, or other professional information changes. It is a sustainable and highly efficient way to network.
