Adding Your Business Card to Your iPhone: A Quick Guide

Keeping track of business cards has become far easier with the digital age. Your iPhone can now hold your business cards digitally, eliminating the clutter of physical cards and providing easy access to contact information. This streamlined process involves a simple QR code scan.

The QR Code Method:

No need to manually type in information. A business card often includes a QR code—a unique visual code that can be scanned using your iPhone’s camera. When you find this QR code on a business card, follow these simple steps:

1. Open the Camera App: Access the camera app on your iPhone.

2. Scan the QR Code: Hold your iPhone’s camera over the QR code on the business card. The QR code scanner will automatically detect the code.

3. Tap to Add: Your iPhone will likely automatically display a message indicating that it’s detected the card data. A tap on this message (or a similar prompt) will start the process of loading the information into your Apple Wallet.

4. Confirm and Save: Your iPhone will display the contact details. Review the information. If accurate, confirm that you want to save the card by tapping the appropriate button. You’ll likely be able to save it directly to your Apple Wallet with a single tap.

Why Use This Method?

Beyond the convenience of digitization, this method allows you to directly save the contact information into your Apple Wallet. You can then effortlessly access this contact information, including phone numbers, email addresses, and often websites, directly from your iPhone’s home screen. This process eliminates manual input, ensuring accuracy and speed.
