The code adds nothing to the print cost, since it is part of your artwork, so the card prices like a plain business card and still fits a wallet or a cardholder.

The tiers below show each set total and its saving per card against a set of 100. ### Print more, pay less per card 39 quantity tiers, 100 to 100,000 cards - Quantity: 100 cards - Per card: 17.6¢ - Box total: $17.57 - You save: 0% 17.6¢ per card at 100, 1.84¢ at 100,000 ### What Is a QR Code Business Card A QR code business card is a 2" x 3.5" business card with a scannable QR code that opens your website, portfolio, booking page or digital contact. For the same size and stock list without a code, order [Standard Business Cards](https://www.4over4.com/product/standard-business-cards). [Mini Cards](https://www.4over4.com/product/mini-cards) come in five sizes from 2" x 2" to 4" x 4" if you want the code on a smaller or squarer card. ### Do You Need a Special QR Code Card, or Just a Business Card Just a business card. Every stock in this card's list takes a code, so you order the card you want and put the code on it. Size, quiet zone and contrast decide whether it scans, and the short section further down covers all three. ### Which Stock Suits a QR Code Card The default 14pt Gloss Cover is the low cost choice for cards you hand out by the hundred. Linen adds texture, metallic pearl catches light, and 15pt Synthetic Plastic or 18pt Rigid Vinyl (PVC) gives you a card made of plastic, not paper. The panel below groups the stocks, finishes and ink layouts the way the configurator does. ### QR Code Business Cards , Configured Your Way 5 option groups, 64 choices, defaults: 14pt Gloss Cover, 4/0: 4 Color Front; Blank Back, Standard Finish #### Give the card real weight The heavier stocks run from 24pt Ultra Thick Gloss through 32pt to 72pt Gloss and 80pt UltraWhite, with colored centers on the 40pt to 64pt cards. The 17pt Indoor Magnet puts the code on a fridge, where it stays in reach. For the thickest stocks we run, see [Ultra Thick Business Cards](https://www.4over4.com/product/ultra-thick-business-cards). #### Design it without a designer Lay out the name and logo first, then give the code its own clear square. Our [business card design templates](https://www.4over4.com/design-templates/business-cards) hold thousands of free layouts; change the colors, copy and logo in the online editor, then place your code with its quiet zone kept empty. ### Ready-to-Edit Business Card Design Templates 6 free business card templates to edit online, with orders from $17.57 for 100 - [Ambitious Execution Business Cards](https://www.4over4.com/designer-coming-soon) - From $17.57 for 100 - [Time-saving Quality Business Cards](https://www.4over4.com/designer-coming-soon) - From $17.57 for 100 - [Reinvented Model Business Cards](https://www.4over4.com/designer-coming-soon) - From $17.57 for 100 - [High-performance Execution Business Cards](https://www.4over4.com/designer-coming-soon) - From $17.57 for 100 - [Robust Development Business Cards](https://www.4over4.com/designer-coming-soon) - From $17.57 for 100 - [Winning Infrastructure Business Cards](https://www.4over4.com/designer-coming-soon) - From $17.57 for 100 [Browse more templates](https://www.4over4.com/design-templates/business-cards) If your art is ready, download a blank.

A 900 card run is $53.83, and at 8,000 cards each card costs near 2 cents. Set your count on the slider below to see the set total and the cost per card, and stop where the next step barely changes your budget. ## Wally puts your whole site on a card One scan from a $17.57 card opens your link, no typing. A hundred QR code business cards costs $17.57, and each one carries a code that opens your site, booking page, or saved contact in one scan. Pick a stock, print the code on the front or back, set your speed, and Wally gets them in your hand fast. ### QR Code Business Cards Price By Quantity 100 for $17.57 ( 17.6¢ each) up to 600 for $40.64 ( 6.77¢ each) - QR Code Business Cards: QTY · TOTAL - 100 at 17.6¢: $17.57 - 200 at 11.5¢: $23.07 - 300 at 9.15¢: $27.46 - 400 at 7.96¢: $31.86 - 500 at 7.25¢: $36.26 - 600 at 6.77¢: $40.64 - From: $17.57 ### QR Code Size, Quiet Zone and Contrast in Short Print the code at least 0.8" square, leave a clear quiet zone of four modules of empty space on all four sides, keep strong dark-on-light contrast, and test the printed proof before the run. Those four things decide whether a phone reads it. A module is one of the small squares the code is built from, so the quiet zone scales with the code: the bigger you print it, the wider that empty border becomes. Nothing goes in it, not a logo, not a border rule, not a background photograph. Dark code on a light field is what phone cameras are tuned for, so keep the code dark on light rather than inverted. Test with more than one phone before approving, in ordinary indoor light rather than under a desk lamp. ### What to Link a QR Code Business Card To The code can open anything with a web address, so the choice is about what you want to happen in the first ten seconds after the handshake. The usual destinations: - A contact card, so the person saves your number and email in one step instead of typing it from the card later. - A booking page, for anyone whose next step is an appointment: a consultation, a viewing, a table. - A portfolio or a product page, when the work sells itself and the card is only the doorway. - A single social profile rather than a list of them. One destination scans, a menu of links loses people. Then print the code on the side that stays clean, away from the name and logo. ### Static or Dynamic QR Code on a Printed Card A static code has the web address written into the pattern itself. It never expires and needs no account, but the destination is fixed the moment the cards are printed. A dynamic code points at a short redirect address, and the redirect can be changed later, so a card printed for a launch page can point at the booking page next month without a reprint. Dynamic codes come from a QR service and usually cost a subscription, and the code dies if that service does. For a printed card, a static code to a page you control is the safe default. Go dynamic when the destination will change or when you want scan counts. Either kind prints the same way, and the free online proof is where you test it with your own phone. ### QR Code Cards vs NFC Digital Business Cards Both put your details on a phone without typing. They fail in different places. | | Printed QR code card | NFC digital business card | | --- | --- | --- | | How it works | The other person points a camera at the card and the link opens. | The other person taps their phone against the card and the link opens. | | Phone compatibility | Any phone with a camera, on any operating system, at any age. Nothing to enable. | Needs an NFC-capable phone with the reader active. Older and budget handsets miss out, and on some phones it has to be switched on. | | Range | Works across a table, from a screen, off a poster, and from a photo someone takes of the card. | Contact only. The two devices have to touch. | | Cost per card | Printed with the artwork, so the code costs nothing on top of the card. | Every card carries a chip, so the unit cost is far higher and handing them out freely gets expensive. | | Handing out at volume | Give away hundreds at an event without thinking about it. | Usually kept as one reusable card you tap and take back. | A printed QR code is the safer choice whenever you are handing cards out and will not see them again, whenever the room is full of phones you cannot vet, and whenever the card also has to work as a card, read across a table or photographed and sent to someone else. An NFC card makes more sense as a single personal card you keep and tap repeatedly. If you carry both, a QR code on the back of the printed card is the fallback for every phone the tap misses. ### How Do QR Code Cards Compare to the Rest of the Range Pick the QR card when you want the link to work the moment you hand it over. It costs no more than Standard Business Cards, the lowest entry among the 135 business card styles in the panel below. ### The smart pick in business cards QR Code Business Cards beside Kraft Business Cards, Die-Cut Business Cards, Diamond Glitter Business Cards, out of 135 business cards styles $17.57 [Standard Business Cards](https://www.4over4.com/product/standard-business-cards), and 73 more at this price, the cheapest way into the category - Most-reviewed style in the category, 2,866 reviews, free business cards, the category's top-reviewed pick at 4.9★ | | QR Code Business Cards | Kraft Business Cards | Die-Cut Business Cards | Diamond Glitter Business Cards | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Min price | $17.57 | $24.75 | $26.37 | $31.84 | | Paper / stock | 14pt Gloss Cover | 18pt Kraft Uncoated Cover (100% PCW) | 14pt Gloss Cover | 17pt Diamond Glitter (Front Only) | | Finish | Standard Finish | · | Standard Finish | · | | Default qty | 100 | 100 | 100 | 50 | | Turnaround | 3 business days | 5 business days | 3 business days | 5 business days | | Rating | ★ 4.5 (4) | ★ 4.7 (6) | ★ 4.9 (107) | ★ 4.6 (5) | ### Real Business Cards Our Customers Printed 8 customer prints from the business cards styles and finishes gallery [Browse more showcase](https://www.4over4.com/showcase/business-card-design-styles-and-finishes-gallery) ### How Fast Can You Get QR Code Business Cards QR code business cards print on a 3 business day standard turnaround, and when a date sneaks up you can move that to 2-day, Next-Day or even Same-Day production.

On the front or the back, wherever it sits best in your layout, as long as it keeps an empty square around it. ### What is the minimum order for QR code business cards? Sets start at 100 cards, with 39 quantity steps above that and a lower price per card at each one. ### What card stocks can I choose from? There are 74. The thinnest are 13pt Uncoated (100% PCW) and 13pt Metallic Pearl Silver, and the thickest is 80pt UltraWhite Uncoated Cover. The full list opens in the Paper Type menu. ### Are these a standard business card size? Yes, the standard 2 x 3.5 inches; adding the code does not change the format. ### Can I print on both sides of a QR card? Yes. 4/4 ink prints full color on both sides and 4/1 adds a black back, while 4/0 leaves the back blank. ### What finish options are available? Two: the Standard Finish, or a High Gloss UV Coating for a shinier card. ### Do I have to create my own QR code? Yes. Make it with any QR generator and place it in your layout like a logo. ### Is it hard to set up business cards with QR codes? No. The code drops into the layout like a logo, and the card orders like any other business card. Questions about QR Code Business Cards? [See answers](https://www.4over4.com/help/business-cards)
