    TL;DR

    NFC business cards with QR code backup give you the best of both worlds: instant tap-to-share for modern phones plus universal compatibility for any device.

    Understanding the Technology

    What is NFC?

    NFC (Near Field Communication) allows devices to communicate by touching or being very close together:

  1. Tap your card to their phone
  2. Instant transfer
  3. No app required (on most phones)
  4. Works through cases
  5. What are QR Codes?

    QR (Quick Response) codes are scannable barcodes:

  6. Camera app reads them
  7. Universal compatibility
  8. Works on any smartphone
  9. Visual and recognizable
  10. Why Combine Both?

    Different situations call for different methods:

    - NFC: Quick, impressive, modern

    - QR: Universal backup, works everywhere

    - Together: Maximum compatibility
