Step-by-step guide

How to set up your digital business card

Setting up a digital business card takes about five minutes. Create a free profile, add your details and links, add your photo and brand, grab your QR code and shareable link, then order an NFC card or add the Apple Wallet pass. Here is exactly how, step by step.

The short version

Five steps from sign-up to first tap

You do not need any hardware to begin. A digital business card starts as a free online profile you can build in a few minutes, and it is shareable by link and QR code the instant you save it.

Once your profile looks the way you want, an optional NFC card or Apple Wallet pass makes in-person sharing a single tap. Both link back to the same profile, so you only ever maintain one place.

The steps

Set up your card in five steps

Follow these in order. Steps one to four are free and take about five minutes; the fifth is optional hardware.

1

Create your free profile

Sign up for a free Anexus Connect account and give your card a name. Your profile is live the moment you save it — no card in hand required to start.

2

Add your details and links

Fill in your name, job title, company, phone, and email, then add your website, socials, and any custom buttons. Everything you want people to reach lives in one place.

3

Add your photo and brand

Upload a profile photo and cover image, then set your accent color and logo. A polished, on-brand profile makes a stronger first impression than any paper card.

4

Get your QR code and link

Your profile comes with a shareable URL and a downloadable QR code straight away. Share the link in a message, add the QR to your email signature, or show it on your phone to share instantly.

5

Order an NFC card or add the Apple Wallet pass

For in-person sharing, order an NFC card so people can tap to open your profile, or add an Apple Wallet pass to share from your phone without a physical card. Both point to the same profile you just built.

Pro tips

Small touches that get you more taps

Once the basics are in place, these four habits get the most out of your new card.

Fill the essentials first

Name, photo, one phone number, and a way to save you cover 90% of the value. You can always add more sections later.

Put the QR everywhere

Add your QR to your email signature, slides, storefront, and phone lock screen so people can save you even when you are not there.

Turn on lead capture

Enable the exchange form so visitors can leave their details too. A one-way card becomes a two-way connection that lands in your CRM.

Update anytime, no reprints

Change your title, number, or links whenever you like. Every card and QR already in circulation shows the update on the next tap.

Questions

Setup FAQ

How long does it take to set up a digital business card?

About five minutes for the essentials. Create your profile, add your name, photo, contact details, and links, and your shareable link and QR code are ready immediately — before any physical card ships.

Do I need to buy an NFC card to start?

No. Your free profile works right away through its link and QR code. An NFC card and the Apple Wallet pass are optional extras for faster in-person sharing — the profile behind them is the same.

Can I change my details after setting it up?

Anytime. Edit your profile once and every link, QR code, and NFC card already in circulation points to the updated version automatically. The link never changes, so nothing you have shared breaks.
