NexaLink vs Blinq — 90% Cheaper Lifetime
NexaLink vs Blinq digital business cards: NexaLink Lifetime $29.99 vs Blinq $299 — save 90%. Full feature comparison, scanner and CRM coverage, migration guide.
Blinq and NexaLink overlap heavily on the core digital-card feature set: QR sharing, NFC sharing, Apple and Google Wallet passes, engagement analytics. The headline difference is pricing — Blinq charges $299 for lifetime access where NexaLink charges $29.99 for the same lifetime commitment. That's a 90% gap with no underlying feature gap to justify it.
On top of the price difference, NexaLink ships a dedicated Scanner app (99% OCR on cards you receive) and a CRM app with AI follow-up drafts. Blinq has basic scanning and a minimal contact list — no AI follow-ups. So NexaLink is both substantially cheaper and more functional.

Who should pick each?
Stay with Blinq
Stay with Blinq if: you specifically prefer their template UI, you already own Blinq Lifetime and can't recoup the sunk cost, or your team is deep inside the Blinq Teams plan.
Switch to NexaLink
Switch to NexaLink if: you're pricing a new lifetime plan and can't justify paying 10x, you want a real Scanner (not just basic scanning), you want a CRM with AI follow-ups, or you're tired of the Blinq limits on contacts and features.
Our Verdict
Blinq and NexaLink ship overlapping digital-card feature sets, but NexaLink is 90% cheaper on lifetime and adds a Scanner and CRM that Blinq doesn't have. Unless you're specifically attached to Blinq's template library, there's no reason to pay 10x for less functionality.
