Digital Business Cards in Berlin
Europe's startup capital, connected digitally
Berlin has emerged as Europe's most exciting startup city, combining affordability, creativity, and a thriving international community. From Mitte's co-working spaces to Kreuzberg's tech meetups, the city attracts ambitious professionals from across the continent and beyond. NexaLink digital cards match Berlin's innovative, sustainability-conscious, and boundary-breaking professional culture.
Networking in Berlin
Berlin's networking culture is informal, inclusive, and deeply international. English is the lingua franca of the startup scene, with professionals from over 180 countries working in the city. Events range from structured conferences at Station Berlin to spontaneous meetups at Kreuzberg cafes. The city's startup ecosystem, anchored by companies like N26, SoundCloud, and Delivery Hero, creates a supportive community where introductions flow freely. Berlin's relatively affordable cost of living means the startup scene skews younger and more experimental than other European capitals.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do recipients need the NexaLink app?
No. When someone scans your QR code, taps your NFC, or clicks your link, your card opens as a mobile-optimized webpage in their browser. They can save your contact directly — no download required.
Can I update my card after sharing it?
Yes. Change your job title, phone number, or company and every person who received your card sees the update instantly. No reprints, no re-sharing — one card, always current.
Is there a free plan?
Yes. The free plan includes 1 digital card, basic templates, QR code sharing, and 10 card scans per month — with no time limit or credit card required. Upgrade to Pro ($5.99/month) for unlimited cards and NFC sharing.
How is this different from a paper business card?
Paper cards can't be updated, don't track engagement, and get lost in pockets. A digital card stays current, shows you who viewed it, and lets recipients save your contact in one tap.
What sharing methods are available?
Five options: QR code (they scan it), NFC tap (phone-to-phone, Pro feature), direct link (text or email), Apple Wallet, and Google Wallet. Pick whichever fits the moment.
