How to launch AR business cards in weeks, not months
AR business cards turn a printed card into a scannable experience — a video intro, portfolio, or one-tap contact save — that makes you unforgettable.
Before you start
You do not need Unity, 3D specialists, or a native app to launch AR business cards. Because the content lives in the cloud, you can swap the video or links without printing a single new card.
Step by step
- Design the card with a clear scan prompt
- Attach your overlay (video or links)
- Train the card front as the target
- Print and start scanning at events
Common pitfalls to avoid
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.
Your launch checklist
- One clear scan prompt
- A tested overlay in real lighting
- Analytics tagged by campaign
- A follow-up call to action

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.
