Your Phone Is the Card

The Digital Business Card That Works Everywhere

No plastic to buy, and nothing to reprint when your title changes. Share by NFC tap, QR code, or link, and the person you meet saves you straight into their contacts, with no app on their end.

Powerful Features for Modern Networking

The things that set us apart come first. The rest you will use every day.

Works With Any Hardware, or None

Your profile lives on the phone already in your pocket, so there is nothing to order and nothing to reorder. Want something physical? Write your card to any standard NTAG tag or sticker, including one stuck to the printed card you already carry, which turns it into a tapping card for the price of a sticker. We sell no hardware, so nothing you buy is locked to us.

Object Cards

Give physical things their own digital card. Enterprise teams create QR/NFC cards for property listings, hotel rooms, equipment, and retail displays, then update the booking, manual, or details behind them anytime, with no reprinting. Bulk-create up to 50 at once and track views by location.

Locked Tags, Verified Cards

Every tag is password-protected as it is written, so a stranger with a generic NFC app cannot repoint it at somewhere else, and only your own account can erase it. Shared cards carry a signature the page checks before it shows the verified badge.

Company Cards & Departments

Build one company template and every member's card inherits it. Lock the fields that have to stay consistent, group people into departments with their own branding, and read every invite, role change, and removal in an audit log. Remove someone and their branded card stops resolving. Includes a shared directory at atlaslinq.com/share/yourco.

Lead Capture

See who tapped your card. Visitors on your share page can drop their name, email and phone in one tap, with no account needed. Every plan collects them, Essential included; Pro opens the 25 most recent and Enterprise is unlimited across the whole team.

6 Powerful Sharing Methods

NFC tap for instant phone-to-phone sharing, write to physical NFC tags, generate QR codes, use Quick Share/AirDrop, share web links, or scan paper business cards with OCR. Choose the perfect method for any situation.

Universal Compatibility

Hand over a paper card and nobody needs a signal. This works the same way: an NFC tap or a QR scan drops your contact straight into their phone's address book, with no app, no account, and no internet on their end. On an iPhone receiving a tap, your card opens in the browser instead, and one tap saves it.

Analytics Dashboard

Track profile views, contact saves, and which sharing method actually worked, with 7-day activity charts and a top-connections view. Saves are counted apart from first views, so you can tell a card that got looked at from one that got kept.

OCR Card Scanner

Digitize paper business cards with your camera. Names, titles, companies, phone numbers, and emails are read on your device rather than uploaded, and when the card carries its own QR code, that gets read instead of guessed.

Privacy Controls

Choose exactly what appears on your public card, field by field, with different settings on each profile. Hidden fields are stripped server-side, so they never reach the page in the first place.

Multiple Profiles

Create separate profiles for different contexts: Personal for friends, Professional for business, Custom for any use case. Each with unique designs and colors.

Real-Time Updates

Update your info once and all shared links, NFC tags, and QR codes automatically reflect changes. Never hand out outdated contact details again.

How It Works

Get started in four simple steps

1

Build Your Profile in Minutes

Download the app and create your digital business card. Add your name, title, company, contact details, and social links. Choose from Personal, Professional, or Custom profile types, each with unique colors and designs that reflect your brand.

2

Choose How You Want to Share

AtlasLinq gives you 6 ways to share: Tap phones together with NFC, write to physical NFC tags, generate QR codes, use Quick Share or AirDrop, send a web link, or even scan paper cards you receive. Pick whatever works best for the moment.

3

Recipients Save in One Tap

A tap or a scan puts your contact straight into their address book, with no app to download and no connection required, exactly like handing over a paper card. Open your web link instead, or tap an iPhone, and your card appears in the browser where one tap saves it. Either way, nothing to install.

4

Watch Your Network Grow

Your dashboard shows profile views, contact saves, and your most active connections, with saves counted apart from views so you can tell who actually kept the card. See which sharing methods are working, and pick up 58 achievements as you hit networking milestones along the way.

No app needed, and one tap saves you

Recipients never need to download an app, and on most paths they do not need a connection either. Your contact lands in their phone's contact app the same way a paper card would, with your card link saved alongside it.

Perfect For Every Professional

One person, then a team, then the things that are not people at all

Sales Professionals & Founders

Replace paper business cards with a digital contact card that never runs out. Share with a tap at conferences, track every connection, and follow up faster.

Enterprise Sales Teams

Equip your whole team with branded company cards from one dashboard. Control the company template, capture leads from every rep's share page, and keep your brand consistent across every handshake.

Recruiters & HR Teams

Share your LinkedIn, job portal link, and contact in one tap at job fairs and campus events, and capture candidate details right back via the built-in lead form. Enterprise team plans give every recruiter a shared company card directory so your brand stays consistent, while the admin dashboard shows which team member is generating the most candidate connections.

Trade Shows & Exhibitors

Scan the paper cards and badges you collect and have them read on your device instead of typed up on the flight home. Visitors tap your stand and fill in their own name and email, so the lead arrives spelled correctly and freely given rather than scraped. The QR still saves when the hall wifi has given up.

Real Estate Agents

Give every listing its own Object Card: a QR on the 'For Sale' board pulls up photos, details, and a booking link for whoever is standing in front of it, and captures their number while they are still interested. Change the price behind it without reprinting the board, and see which listings actually get scanned.

Hotels & Venues

Give a room, a front desk, or an event space its own card. Guests scan or tap for wifi details, service numbers, checkout, or booking links, and you change what sits behind it from one dashboard without reprinting anything. Per-location analytics show which ones people actually use.

Why Choose AtlasLinq?

The alternatives you are actually weighing, and where we land against each

Better Than Paper

A printed card stops being true the day your title changes, and you never learn which ones were kept. Yours keeps updating after you have handed it over, and tells you when someone saved it.

Better Than NameDrop

Works cross-platform (iPhone + Android), adds your branding, and tracks every contact exchange, things Apple NameDrop and Android Nearby Share can't do

Better Than a Plastic Card

Every competitor in this category sells you one. We sell none, because the phone in your pocket already does the job. A card you have to remember to carry is a card you will eventually leave at home.

Safer Than a Blank Sticker

A blank tag off a marketplace can be reprogrammed by anyone who walks past it. Tags written through AtlasLinq are password-protected as they are written, and only the account that wrote one can erase it.

Works Without a Signal

A QR code that is only a link needs a working connection to be worth anything, which is exactly what a packed venue does not have. Yours can carry the contact itself, so it saves on a phone showing no bars.

People and Things, One Dashboard

Other apps map a card to a person and stop there. Yours can also belong to a meeting room, a property listing, or a machine on a factory floor, managed from the same place as your team.

Frequently Asked Questions

Quick answers to the most common questions

What is AtlasLinq? Is it the same as AtlasLink?

AtlasLinq (sometimes misspelled as AtlasLink, Atlas Link, or Atlas Linq) is an NFC-powered digital business card platform. The correct spelling is AtlasLinq, combining 'Atlas' for global reach with 'Linq' for linking people. It lets you share contact info via NFC tap, QR code, or link, with no app required for recipients.

Do recipients need to install an app?

No, and on most paths they do not need a connection either. An NFC tap to an Android phone, an NFC tag, a QR scan, AirDrop or Quick Share drops your contact straight into their address book with nothing installed and nothing online, exactly like handing over a paper card. An iPhone receiving a tap, or anyone opening your web link, sees your card in the browser instead, where one tap saves it. This is AtlasLinq's key advantage over other digital business card apps.

What sharing methods are available?

AtlasLinq offers 6 ways to share: NFC tap, NFC tag, QR code, AirDrop, Quick Share, and Web link. You can also scan paper business cards you receive and digitize them with on-device OCR.

Do I need to buy a special NFC card or hardware?

No: the phone already in your pocket is the card. You share by tapping phones, showing a QR code, or sending a link. If you want something physical, write your profile onto any standard NFC sticker or tag, including one stuck to a card you already own, and it taps like a regular business card from then on. We do not sell tags and you do not need one, so there is no hardware to buy from anyone and nothing locked to us.

How does NFC sharing work?

Tap your phone to an NFC tag, or to another Android phone. On Android, AtlasLinq uses Host Card Emulation to hand over your profile as a vCard without either phone opening an app. Anyone can receive your card on any phone by scanning your QR code, opening your link, or tapping a tag you have written.

Is AtlasLinq a NameDrop alternative?

Yes! Apple NameDrop (iOS 17+) lets two iPhones exchange contacts by tapping together, but it has no branding, no analytics, and only works between iPhones. AtlasLinq works across iPhone and Android, lets you customize your digital contact card with your brand, and shows you analytics on every share, so you actually know who saved your contact.

Is my data secure?

Absolutely. Your data is encrypted with TLS/SSL and stored securely with local-first architecture. You have full control over what information you share with granular privacy settings. AtlasLinq is GDPR compliant.

What is the AtlasLinq admin dashboard?

Enterprise subscribers get access to a web-based admin dashboard at atlaslinq.com/dashboard. From there you can manage your team (invite members, organize them into departments, and grant read-only viewer access), configure your company card and reusable branded templates, create object cards for physical things, and review team-wide analytics, with an at-a-glance Overview plus dedicated Profiles and Objects views. Alongside all leads captured across every team member's share page.

What are Object Cards?

Object Cards are digital cards for physical things rather than people: restaurant tables, property listings, hotel rooms, equipment, retail displays, and more. Attach one to any object with a QR code or NFC tag and visitors instantly reach whatever you put behind it: a menu, manual, booking page, troubleshooting guide, or reviews. Enterprise admins create and manage them from the web dashboard, including bulk-creating a numbered run in one action. Every Enterprise plan includes 3 object cards; additional cards are billed per card per month, with local pricing in every supported market.
