Tapping the card against any modern smartphone opens the recipient's browser directly to the sender's digital profile — no app, no download, no friction required. **Apple Wallet and Google Wallet passes.** One tap adds a BCard wallet pass to the recipient's lock screen. The pass updates automatically whenever the cardholder changes their information, ensuring contacts always see the current details. **QR Code sharing.** Every BCard generates a custom QR code usable on printed materials, presentation slides, and screens. A single scan saves the contact permanently. **Real-time analytics.** Card owners see every view, scan, tap, and link click in a real-time dashboard, including which channels drive the most reconnections. **Team workspace.** Company and agency plans let one admin invite members, enforce brand lock, assign department-level templates, and view aggregate analytics across an entire team. **WhatsApp integration.** Cards include a one-tap WhatsApp button that opens a pre-filled conversation with the cardholder's number. ## Pricing Plans BCard operates a freemium model.

Order at https://bcard.qa/cards/vip/order All physical cards include a lifetime "Card Only" digital membership at no additional subscription cost. ## How NFC Sharing Works When a recipient's phone touches a BCard NFC card, the phone's built-in NFC reader triggers a browser redirect to the cardholder's digital profile. This requires no app installation on the recipient's device. All modern iOS (iPhone 7+) and Android phones support NFC reading natively. ## How Wallet Passes Work Clicking "Add to Wallet" from any BCard profile page creates an Apple Wallet (.pkpass) or Google Wallet pass, which is pinned to the phone's lock screen. When the cardholder updates their profile — job title, phone number, social links — the wallet pass refreshes automatically for every person who saved it. ## Company Background BCard was founded in 2023 in Doha, Qatar after the founders noticed paper business cards consistently ending up discarded after networking events. The platform launched with 8 templates and reached its first 1,000 active cards in 2024. Apple Wallet and Google Wallet support launched in 2025. By April 2026 the platform serves 12,000+ cards across 48 countries with 31 card templates.
