What is a digital business card from IVYS?

An IVYS digital business card replaces traditional paper business cards. Your contact details are stored digitally and can be shared with others via NFC or QR code – quickly, modernly, and sustainably.


How does IVYS work – from purchase to use?

    1. Buy
      You are purchasing an IVYS product with a digital business card (e.g., card or keychain).

    2. Register
      Scan the QR code on the packaging and enter your email address, serial number, and verification code.

    3. Edit
      You will receive an email confirming your request and can then create your digital business card online.

Do I need to install an app?

No.
Your digital business card opens directly in your browser. Neither you nor the other person needs an app.

NFC (Near Field Communication) is a contactless radio technology.
Simply hold your IVYS product up to a smartphone – the digital business card opens automatically.


Does NFC work with every smartphone?

If a device does not support NFC, the QR code can always be used as an alternative.
