How to Edit a Digital Business Card

Every time you need to update your digital business card, you have to print it again, which can be time-consuming and costly. But with a digital business card, you can make those changes in seconds with a digital business card without having to print or send them out again. 

Sounds simple? Well, it’s only simple if you are using the right digital business card tool. 

Lets get into why you should edit your digital business cards routinely and how mobiQode can help with that. 

Why editing your digital business card matters

Your professional details keep evolving

Job titles change, phone numbers get updated, and websites and brands often get new looks. It’s important to keep your contact information up to date because every change affects how people can get in touch with you.

Traditional cards mean reprints and waste

Reprints and waste are what traditional cards are all about. If you need to make even a small change to your paper business cards, like adding a new email address, you have to print them all over again. Every time your information changes, that costs more money, takes more time, and wastes more resources.

Digital cards stay accurate with quick edits

You can change information on a digital business card right away. Changes, like adding a new social link or changing the name of your business, show up instantly in all shared versions.

Sustainable and professional by design

Keeping your card up to date shows attention to detail and professionalism. It also helps the environment by getting rid of paper waste, which helps you keep your networking presence clean and green.

Static vs dynamic QR codes: why it makes all the difference 

Static QR codes

A static QR code is permanently linked to one destination. Once created, the URL it contains can’t be changed. If your contact details or business links change, the QR code becomes outdated, and every printed or shared version displays the wrong info. 

Dynamic QR codes

On the other hand, a dynamic QR code lets you change things. You can change the content or social links at any time without having to reprint or share anything else. The QR code stays the same.

Why dynamic codes matter for digital business cards

When your card uses a dynamic QR code, you can edit your contact details, social links, or branding without reprinting or resending anything. The QR code remains valid, always directing to the latest version of your card. 

For example, if your static QR code links to an old business page, every card you printed becomes useless. With a dynamic QR code, you can change what that same QR code leads to, anytime. (Learn more about static vs dynamic QR codes here)

How to edit your digital business card in mobiQode (step-by-step)

Step 1: Log in to mobiQode

First, log in to your mobiQode account. Once you’re in, go to the My Cards section of your dashboard. This is where all of your digital cards are saved.

Step 2: Open your card for editing

Look for the card you want to change. To edit it, click the three dots (⋮) next to it. This opens your card editor, which shows all of your current settings and information.

Step 3: Update your details

Just like when you first made the card, make the changes you need to. You can change your name, job title, and company information, as well as your phone number, email, or website. You can also add or remove links to your social media accounts.

Step 4: Customize your landing page

Now for the fun part: you can change the colors, layout, or call-to-action buttons on your card to fit your brand style. You can even change the fields on your lead capture form to get exactly the information you need from clients. The most important thing is to make a page that fits your brand perfectly.

Step 5: Save and republish

When you’re done, click ‘Save’. You won’t need to print your card again or make new links; it will update your digital business card right away online. The QR code for the business card in itself doesn’t change, automatically showing your latest details. 

Step 6: Share or print again (optional) 

You can just re-download your QR code if you need to use it in print or on marketing materials. It will always link to the most recent version, which will help you keep your business identity the same everywhere.

Why choose a dynamic QR code tool for your digital business cards 

• No need to print new cards: You can change your information at any time, and your QR code will still work. It saves time and money on printing
• Avoid broken links or outdated profiles: Your QR code always takes people to the most recent version of your digital card, so they never see out-of-date or wrong information
• Ideal for small businesses and freelancers: You can make quick changes to your card without having to make a new one if you’re rebranding, adding new services, or changing your logo
• Keep tracking data consistent: Every time someone scans your card, it’s recorded. Even after updates, your scan history and analytics remain the same
• Flexible for the future: As your business grows or your role changes, your card can easily adapt to the new info by only editing the original version
