The ROI of AR business cards: cost, timeline, and results
AR business cards turn a printed card into a scannable experience — a video intro, portfolio, or one-tap contact save — that makes you unforgettable.
What AR business cards costs
Unlike a bespoke Unity build, AR business cards on a managed platform is a subscription plus light services — not a six-figure capital project. You pay to run campaigns, not to rebuild infrastructure each time.
Where the ROI comes from
- 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
Measuring results
Every scan, dwell, and tap is an event, so founders and sales teams can attribute engagement to specific touchpoints and prove impact.
If you can measure it, you can improve it — and AR business cards finally makes physical media measurable.
