Both QR codes and NFC let someone open your digital card instantly. But they work differently and suit different situations.

QR Code:
✅ Works on any smartphone camera (no app needed on iOS/Android)
✅ Can be printed on paper, banner, badge, shirt
✅ Visible — easy to scan from a distance
✅ Free to generate and use
❌ Requires the other person to open their camera
❌ Can fail in poor lighting

NFC:
✅ One tap — instant, no camera needed
✅ Feels premium and tech-forward
✅ Works in the dark or low light
✅ Built into your physical card, no printing needed
❌ Requires a compatible phone (most phones since 2018)
❌ Requires physical proximity

Our recommendation:
Use both. Your DVC profile works with QR and NFC simultaneously. Include your QR code on your digital card share screen and order an NFC card for in-person meetings.

Pro tip: QR codes work better at large events. NFC wins in 1:1 meetings.
