The live profile, the QR, the lead capture and the analytics are free forever — no trial, no card details taken. A physical card is paid once and comes with months of Pro. Stands, boards and signs are priced per item, and 7–10 working days, UK delivery £10.19 per order and free over £100 of printed items.
Nothing here renews unless you ask it to. Pro is optional, and every card comes with months of it included.
£0 free forever, no card details taken
A live contact profile, a share link and a QR code. Contact-back and analytics included. Update it once and every card you ever handed out follows.
£24 one-off · Posted free, 7–10 working days
The everyday card. Printed plastic, tap or scan, and the profile behind it is yours to change whenever you like.
£35 one-off · Posted free, 7–10 working days
Bamboo, for when the card itself is part of the impression. Same chip, same profile, warmer in the hand.
£59 one-off · Posted free, 7–10 working days
Brushed metal. Heavier than people expect, which is rather the point.
£95 one-off · Posted free, 7–10 working days
A set for a team, each card carrying its own person and its own history, managed from one account.
£34 one-off · UK delivery £10.19, free over £100
A card to leave behind rather than tap. Printed both sides with a QR, for the moments when somebody wants something to put in a pocket.
£3.99 a month, or £39 a year · optional
Getting your data out is free. Pro buys the shapes somebody else asked for, and a place to work your leads.
The same profile, on something bigger. Each one carries its own code, and every item in a run can be different at no extra cost. Prices are for the item and 7–10 working days, UK delivery £10.19 per order and free over £100 of printed items, because a two-metre banner does not travel like a counter stand.
What each touchpoint is, how the tap works and which phones read it are on NFC business cards. The printed range carries the same live code, starting with QR code business cards. Google review cards are set up by hand for each business, so they are quoted rather than listed here.
Buy a card, or do not buy a card. Either way the profile is free, the QR is free, the lead capture is free and the analytics are free, and they stay free — not for a trial, not for ninety days, not until we change our minds. There is no clock running anywhere on your account.
You can search the cheap end of eBay right now and find NFC cards advertising “no subscriptions, no monthly fees” in the listing title, because the people selling £6 metal cards worked out that the subscription is what everybody hates. They are right. What those cards cannot do is change where they point after you have handed one over, tell you anyone tapped it, or let the other person send their details back — so the moment your number changes, the card is a coaster.
The combination is unusual. No subscription required, and the card still updates forever, still counts every tap and scan, and still brings the lead back. Pro exists if you want your contacts exported into something else, and it is £3.99 a month — but it is genuinely optional, and every card comes with months of it thrown in.
A card is cheap. The subscription attached to it is where the money goes. Competitors are costed at their cheapest published rate, annual where that is lower, because a comparison is only worth anything if it is fair to the other side.
| Set-up | The card | Software | Three-year total |
|---|---|---|---|
| UniversalContacts | £59 metal | £0 — free tier does the job | £59 |
| UniversalContacts + Pro | £59 metal | £39/yr, first year included | £137 |
| Dot + Profile+ | $30 card | $144/yr (their cheapest rate) | ≈ £355 |
| Blinq + Business | $34.99 metal | $4.99/user/mo annual, min 5 seats | ≈ £718 for the five |
| V1CE + Client Capture OS | £110 metal | £49.99/mo | ≈ £1,910 |
Competitor prices read off their own live pricing pages on 22 September 2026; converted at roughly $1.30 to the pound and rounded. Blinq’s lead capture only exists on a Business plan with a five-seat minimum, so that row is the whole five. Our figures are exactly what is on this page.
No. We are a UK company and we make money from cards and from Pro, not from your contacts. You can delete your public profile and your account data whenever you want; the only things we keep are the records the law requires, listed in the Privacy Policy.
Nothing. The card is yours, the profile stays live, lead capture and analytics keep working. You lose export, webhooks and save-to-contacts until you turn Pro back on — the data itself is still there waiting.
Because you are not buying the metal. A £6 card points at a static page that can never change and tells you nothing about who tapped it. Ours carries a profile you can rewrite forever, sends the lead back to you, and counts every tap — and we will still be here to support it. If all you want is engraved metal, buy the engraved metal; we would rather say that than pretend.
No. The profile, the QR, lead capture and analytics are free forever. A card is paid once. Pro is optional and only adds export, webhooks and integrations — and every card comes with months of it included.
