Business cards

QR codes for business cards you can change after printing.

One QR code for business cards, on a link that looks like the business. Built for business card work where booking pages, portfolios, and contact details change faster than print cycles.

  • Free tier for business cards
  • Custom domains
  • Made in Sydney, hosted in Australia

Business cards with QR code design work best when the code points through a URL the recipient trusts. Scannable gives you QR support for cards: changeable links, useful preview cards, and scan counts after the cards go out.

Destinations

Where the QR can point

Qr code business card ideas start with a clear next step for the person who scanned. Pick one primary destination and change it when the client's priorities shift.

Booking link

Calendly, Acuity, or your client's scheduling page. If they change tools later, swap the URL instead of printing new cards.

Website and contact page

One branded link for the company site, contact form, or vCard page.

LinkedIn and social

Point to the profile that matters now. Update when roles or handles change.

Portfolio and case studies

Show recent work after the cards are already in wallets and on desks.

Change it after print

Why business cards need editable QR codes

Roles change. Booking tools change. The portfolio URL you wanted on the card in March is not the one you want in September.

An editable QR code keeps the same square in the artwork. Update the destination in Scannable and every card already handed out still works.

  • Qr code for business cards on the client's own domain.

  • Good preview cards when someone shares the link in iMessage or WhatsApp.

  • Scan reporting to see if the card is getting used.

  • No reprint when the landing page changes.

Design and print

Tips for business cards with qr code design

Good qr codes for business cards tips come down to print specs and a live link your client can trust.

Size and placement

Leave enough quiet zone around the code. On a standard card, 18–22 mm square is a practical minimum for reliable scans.

Contrast

Dark code on a light background scans best. Test on the actual stock and finish before the print run.

Export with the brand on it

Export a print-ready PNG with the client logo and colours from Scannable, then place it in InDesign, Illustrator, or Canva.

Test before print

Scan it from normal phone distance on the screen proof and on a printed sample. Check the URL before the job leaves the shop.
