Digital Business Cards in San Francisco
The smart card for the Bay Area's innovators
San Francisco is the epicenter of global technology and startup culture, where a single coffee meeting can launch a billion-dollar company. The Bay Area's interconnected ecosystem of founders, engineers, and investors demands modern networking tools. NexaLink digital cards are the natural choice for a city that invented the future.
Networking in San Francisco
San Francisco's networking revolves around the tech ecosystem. Demo days, pitch nights, and hackathons happen daily across SOMA, the Mission, and the Financial District. The culture is informal but intentional -- a hoodie and a handshake can seal a deal worth millions. Warm introductions matter more than cold outreach, making it crucial to capture and maintain every connection you make.

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.
