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.
