Frequently Asked Question
The most common questions about how Digital Business Cards work and what they can do for you.
What is a digital business card?
A digital business card is an online version of a traditional paper business card that lets you share your name, title, company, and contact details instantly via a link, QR code, or NFC tap, with no printing required. Unlike a static PDF or image, a true digital business card, like the ones built on oCard, Australia's premium digital business card platform, is interactive and updates in real time, so your contact details are never out of dat
What's the difference between a digital business card, a virtual card, and a vCard?
oCard lets you build a professional digital business card in minutes, share it via NFC tap, QR code, or link, and let recipients save your details straight to their phone contacts with one tap. As Australia's premium digital business card platform, oCard is purpose-built for Australian small businesses, with local support, Australian hosting, and design options tailored to how Australian professionals actually network, rather than a generic global template.
Why are Australian small businesses switching to digital business cards?
Australian small businesses are moving to digital business cards to cut printing costs, project a more professional and modern image, and make it effortless for leads to save their details correctly the first time. For small business owners networking at trade shows, local meetups, or client meetings across Australia, a digital business card also means your details never go stale: update your card once and everyone who has it sees the change instantly, something a printed card can never do.
How do I share my digital business card, NFC, QR code, or link?
oCard digital business cards support all three sharing methods: tap an NFC-enabled oCard against a phone for instant sharing, display a QR code for someone to scan, or send a direct link via text, email, or social media. This flexibility means your card works whether you're meeting someone in person at a conference or connecting remotely with a client interstate.

Will my digital business card save properly to iPhone and Android contacts?
Yes. A properly built digital business card uses the vCard (.vcf) standard, which is natively supported by both iOS and Android, so recipients can save your details to their contacts app with a single tap, no app download required. This is a core feature of oCard: every card generates a standards-compliant vCard file, ensuring your name, phone, email, and company sync correctly regardless of the recipient's device.
