Before You Start

  • NexaLink account with digital card
  • CRM account with API access
  • Admin permissions on both platforms

Step-by-Step Guide

Navigate to Integrations

Open NexaLink and go to Settings, then Integrations to see all supported CRM platforms.

Tip: NexaLink supports direct integrations with Salesforce, HubSpot, Zoho, and Pipedrive
2

Connect Your CRM Account

Select your CRM and authenticate using OAuth or an API key to establish the connection.

Tip: Use a CRM admin account for the initial setup to ensure all permissions are granted
3

Map Card Fields to CRM Fields

Define how NexaLink card viewer data maps to your CRM contact fields. Match name, email, company, and custom fields.

Tip: Map NexaLink tags to CRM lead source or campaign fields for attribution tracking
4

Configure Auto-Capture Rules

Set rules for when a new CRM contact should be created. Options include every card view, only when the viewer saves your card, or manual approval.

Tip: Start with manual approval to review data quality before turning on full automation
5

Set Up Follow-Up Workflows

Create automated workflows in your CRM that trigger when a new contact is captured from your digital card.

Tip: A simple workflow could assign a task, send a welcome email, and add the contact to a nurture sequence
6

Test the Integration End to End

Share your card with a test email, verify the contact appears in your CRM, and confirm the workflow triggers correctly.

Tip: Test with both new contacts and existing CRM contacts to verify duplicate handling
