Why Paper Cards Fall Short

A modern business card should be simple to show, easy to save, and useful after the conversation ends.

Cards get lost A QR card opens a public profile that can be saved as a contact in seconds.

Details change Update phone, email, website, photo, logo, booking, and review links without reprinting anything.

Next steps are scattered Give people direct actions for call, email, website, booking, and Google reviews from one page.

Recipients may not use the app The public card opens in the browser, so customers and prospects do not need a TAPNET login.

Two Views, One Card

Editable fields Owners can adjust the display name, phone, email, website, address, profile photo, logo, booking URL, and review URL.

Useful quick actions The public card can create a contact, start a call, send email, open the website, launch booking, or request a review.

Designed To Show In Person

The private side should look like a real business card: logo, name, profile photo, brand color, and one clear QR code. It is meant to be held up on a phone, shared at a counter, or sent as a quick link.

Extra operational details belong on the public page after the scan, not crowded onto the card face.

• Large scannable QR code
• Clean card face for meetings and storefronts
• Share button for text, email, or social messages

• Show the QR card during networking, events, job sites, counters, and sales conversations
• Add the public card link to an email signature, text message, social profile, or printed QR sign
• Let service technicians and sales reps share the same business profile with their own contact details
