Before You Start

  • NexaLink app installed
  • Digital business card created
  • Email client with signature support

Step-by-Step Guide

1

Copy Your Card Link

In the NexaLink app, go to your card and tap Share then Copy Link to get your unique card URL.

Tip: The link is short and clean, perfect for professional email signatures
2

Open Email Signature Settings

Go to your email client settings and find the signature editor (Gmail, Outlook, Apple Mail, etc.).

Tip: Most email clients have signature settings under Settings or Preferences
3

Add Your Card Link

Add a line like 'Digital Business Card' or 'Connect with me' and hyperlink it to your NexaLink URL.

Tip: Keep it on a separate line below your name and title for visibility
4

Optional: Add Your QR Code Image

Download your QR code from NexaLink and add it as a small image in your signature.

Tip: Keep the QR image small, around 80x80 pixels, so it does not dominate the signature
5

Test Your Signature

Send a test email to yourself or a colleague and click the link to make sure it works correctly.

Tip: Check that the link works on both desktop and mobile email clients

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.
