By the numbers
Exchanging contacts at trade shows without paper
Industry trade shows are the moment of maximum brand exposure — and maximum paper waste: you print 1,000 cards, hand out 700, the other 300 end up in the trash, and of those 700, maybe 50 will make it into your CRM. With bizCARD the booth goes digital: every exhibitor has a branded QR that points to the card, every visitor scans it from their smartphone, contacts go automatically into their address book.
The short link on the invitation or event program opens the right version for each international visitor: it reads the browser language and sends German speakers to the DE version, French speakers to FR and Italian speakers to IT. All from a single link printed on promotional materials, without different versions per country.
Post-event is where real ROI plays out: the professional email signature of the entire staff includes a link to the card, follow-up meeting booking, downloadable brochures. Booth analytics show how many visitors scanned the QR, what countries they came from, what devices. Comparing the same analytics across different fairs reveals which event is truly productive for the business.

Events and trade shows FAQ
How many different QRs can I generate for the same fair?
It depends on the plan: 5 dynamic QR codes on Solo, 20 on Team, 100 on Business. Create one for the main banner and one for each printed material (brochure, swag, badge), each with its own statistics to understand where visitors scan most.
Do international visitors see the card in their language?
Partly. The card's labels (buttons and sections) follow the language of the visitor's phone, in 8 languages; the texts you wrote stay in the language you wrote them in.
Does it work offline or with slow connection?
The card loads as a standard webpage. On 3G/4G fair stand connections it's fast (~1 second). Saving the contact to the address book doesn't need a connection: the vCard file is handled locally by the OS.
Can we connect the leads collected to our CRM?
Not today: whoever scans saves the contact to their address book as a vCard, and bookings arrive by email and in the calendar. To connect bizCARD to your company directory there is SCIM, on the Enterprise plan.
Are scan stats real-time?
Yes. The dashboard shows card views and QR scans while the event is ongoing. Useful for re-allocating staff to the booth based on traffic peaks.
