Digital Business Cards
Your brand ... our technology!
What is a digital business card?
In short, a digital business card is an electronic representation (or even replacement) of a traditional printed business card, designed to be viewed and accessed on smartphones or other digital devices. In the digital age, sharing contact information has evolved, leading to the rise of digital business cards, also known as virtual business cards or electronic business cards. These digital alternatives have gained popularity due to their interactivity, cost-effectiveness, and sustainability compared to their physical printed counterparts.
Digital business cards offer enhanced accessibility, as they can be easily shared with anyone, regardless of their location, through various digital channels such as email, messaging, social media platforms, QR codes, NFC technologies, and more. They serve as comprehensive repositories of contact information and can include various details such as name, title, company, phone number, email address, website, social media links, documents, and even multimedia content like images, videos, or audio recordings.
In essence, a digital business card acts as a portable and eco-friendly alternative to printed cards, allowing professionals to network and promote their brand more efficiently in today’s digital age. You can find more information and articles on our blog.

Interesting Facts and Figures
Environmental impact of printed business cards (case study summary)
It is challenging to provide an exact number of trees being used for the business card industry due to various factors and variables involved in the paper production process. The number of trees required can vary depending on factors such as the size and weight of the cards, the paper production efficiency, the use of recycled materials, and the sourcing practices of the printing companies. To gain a more accurate understanding of the environmental impact of the business card industry and the number of trees being used, it would require specific data and insights from individual printing companies, paper manufacturers, or industry research studies. Since this data is not available, we can only estimate by making use of available data (approximations).
These approximation calculations are based on 1 set of business cards per entrepreneur per year (not including the actual number of business ventures of each entrepreneur, their employees or the various other enterprises). It’s important to note that efforts are being made in the industry to promote sustainable practices, including responsible forestry management, recycled paper usage, and the development of alternative materials. These initiatives aim to reduce the environmental impact of paper production and preserve our valuable forests. The responsibility for reducing the environmental impact of paper production extends beyond just the producers. Users, including businesses and individuals, play a crucial role in making sustainable choices and adopting practices that minimize paper consumption.
