Video Introduction on Digital Business Cards

Make a personal connection before you even meet

A 30-second video introduction on your digital business card creates an instant personal connection that text and photos can't match. Contacts who watch your video arrive at meetings already feeling like they know you, leading to warmer conversations and faster trust-building.

Step-by-Step Guide

1

Record Your Video

Record a 30-60 second introduction video in good lighting with clear audio.

Tip: Smile, introduce yourself, mention what you do, and how you help people
2

Upload to Your Card

Upload your video or paste a YouTube/Vimeo link in the card editor.

Tip: Keep file size under 50MB for fast loading on mobile
3

Set Thumbnail

Choose an engaging thumbnail frame from your video or upload a custom one.

Tip: A smiling face thumbnail gets the highest play rates
4

Position on Card

Place the video prominently on your card where visitors will see it early.

Tip: The video should be above the fold so visitors don't need to scroll

Why This Matters

Share Instantly, Three Ways

QR code for events, NFC tap for one-on-ones, and a direct link for email and text. Recipients see your card in their browser — no app download required.

Always Up-to-Date

Change your job title, phone number, or company and every recipient sees the update instantly. No reprints, no re-sharing — one card that stays current.

Track Who Engaged

See how many people viewed your card, when they opened it, and which links they clicked. Use that data to prioritize follow-ups.

Professional First Impression

Choose from 8+ templates designed for professionals. Add your photo, logo, brand colors, and social links for a card that matches your identity.

Your card opens as a mobile-optimized webpage on any smartphone, tablet, or desktop. Add it to Apple Wallet or Google Wallet for one-tap access.

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.
