AR business cards turn a printed card into a scannable experience — a video intro, portfolio, or one-tap contact save — that makes you unforgettable.

The case for AR business cards

Memorability is the metric: A card people scan once and remember beats a stack that ends up in a drawer. The AR layer is the reason they keep it.

The benefits that move the needle

  • Stand out at events and meetings
  • Update the experience without reprinting cards
  • Capture interest with a tap-to-save contact
  • Track who scanned and when

What you can build

  • A short video introduction
  • A 3D logo or product reveal
  • Portfolio and case-study links
  • One-tap save-to-contacts
The best AR business cards project is the one your audience can reach in a single tap. Everything else is friction you are paying to create.

Frequently asked questions

How does an AR business card work?+

The card front is trained as an image target; scanning it opens your chosen overlay — a video, links, or contact card — in the browser.

Can I change the content after printing?+

Yes. The overlay is hosted, so you can update it anytime without reprinting.

Do I need an app to scan an AR business card?+

No, it opens in the standard phone camera and browser.
