What is a vCard, and how do you share one?

A vCard is the .vcf contact file a phone reads to save a new contact in one tap. FirstContactX turns yours into a living page: one link and one QR code that hand over the vCard, then keep answering questions after you have walked away.

01

What is a vCard file?

A vCard is a small text file, extension .vcf, that stores a person name, title, company, phone, email and links in a format every phone and email client understands. Saving one takes a tap, and nothing is typed by hand.

02

How do you create a vCard for free?

Creating a vCard on FirstContactX takes three steps: pick one of the 200+ card designs, fill in your details once, and publish. Your card is live at a link with a QR code, and the vCard is generated from the same details, so the two can never disagree.

03

How do you share a vCard?

A vCard is shared by link, by QR code, by an NFC tag you already own, from an email signature, or as a Google Wallet pass. FirstContactX gives you all five from one card, and any detail you change updates everywhere at once.

04

What a vCard cannot do on its own

A vCard saves your details and stops. It cannot answer a question, speak, or tell you who read it. That is the part FirstContactX adds: an AI concierge trained on your material, live inside the same card that hands over the vCard.

vCard questions

The rest of what people ask.

Is a vCard the same as a QR code business card?

They are two halves of the same thing. The QR code is how the card is shared, and the vCard is what gets saved when someone taps to keep your contact. A FirstContactX card carries both.

Do vCards work on iPhone and Android?

Yes. The .vcf format is read natively by iOS Contacts, Android Contacts, Gmail, Outlook and Apple Mail, with nothing to install on either side.

Can I update my vCard after sharing it?

Your FirstContactX card updates instantly for everyone holding the link. The contact already saved on someone phone keeps the details from the day they saved it, which is why the link matters more than the file.

Is a vCard free?

Yes. Creating your card, generating its vCard and sharing it by link and QR code is free forever on FirstContactX. You pay only when you switch on the AI.
