Cardr is a digital business card built and run in the United Kingdom, priced in pounds, and free forever for the card itself. The alternatives are good products with a foreign address: Blinq is Australian, and HiHello and Popl are American. Blinq and HiHello publish their prices in dollars, so if you are in Britain that means a currency conversion on every charge and a possible non-sterling fee on top. Popl sells its individual plan in pounds through the App Store, and V1CE, also based in the UK, publishes in pounds and sells a card bought once.

Priced in sterling
Free forever, or £12 a month, or £9 a month billed annually (£108 a year). No conversion and no non-sterling transaction fee.
UK GDPR

Apple Wallet and Google Wallet

The currency, and the fee behind it

A subscription billed at $9.99 is not a fixed cost in Britain. It moves with the exchange rate, and depending on which card you pay with it can carry a non-sterling transaction fee of around three percent on top. Neither is enormous. Both are the sort of thing you notice on a statement eight months later and cannot explain.

Phone numbers that behave like phone numbers

An 07 mobile entered into a product that assumes a North American format is a small, constant annoyance: it saves wrong, it dials wrong from abroad, and it looks wrong on the card. Cardr takes a country dial code explicitly, which is unglamorous and is the difference between a contact that works and one that has to be retyped.

Data, under UK law

Cardr is a UK company and the product operates under UK GDPR. That is not a claim that competitors are careless; all three publish privacy policies and are perfectly reputable. It is that the answer to “who governs this and where do I complain” is shorter and closer when the company is in the same jurisdiction as you.

Where we are worse, since this is a comparison

Cardr has no CRM integrations, sells no NFC hardware and has no shared lead pool (team branding it does have, through Cardr Teams). All three of those exist elsewhere in this category and if any is your requirement then one of the others is the better buy. Our round-up says which, by name, including where they beat us outright.

Questions

Using one in the UK.

Is there a UK digital business card company?

Yes. Cardr is one, and it is the reason this page exists. V1CE is another: it is based in the United Kingdom too, publishes its prices in pounds, and sells a tap card bought once with its software free alongside it. Most of the best known products in this category are Australian and American, which is fine for the software and awkward for everything around it: you are billed in a foreign currency, your card assumes a US phone format, and support runs on a timezone eight hours behind you. Cardr is built and run in the United Kingdom and priced in pounds.

How much is a digital business card in pounds?

Cardr is free forever for the card, the Apple Wallet pass and the two-way exchange, with no card details taken, and £12 a month or £9 a month billed annually (£108 a year) for Pro. On their own pricing pages, checked 29 October 2026, most alternatives publish in dollars: Blinq from $9.99/mo, HiHello from $6/mo, Wave Connect from $7/mo, Mobilo from $3/mo, Dot from $15/mo, Uniqode from $6/mo. Popl publishes in pounds, from £5.99/mo; V1CE publishes in pounds, from £60 once. A dollar price also means a currency conversion and, depending on your card, a non-sterling transaction fee on every charge.

Is VAT included in the price?

The prices shown are what a UK consumer pays. If that changes for any reason, the prices on the pricing page change with it rather than a line of small print appearing at checkout.

Does it handle UK phone numbers properly?

Yes. Numbers are entered with a country dial code picker that defaults sensibly, so an 07 mobile behaves like an 07 mobile and saving your card to an iPhone produces a number that dials. This sounds trivial until you have used a product that assumes every number is a ten digit North American one.

Where is my data stored?

Cardr is a UK company and the product is subject to UK GDPR. What is stored, for how long, and how to have it deleted is set out on our privacy page rather than summarised here, because a summary of a data policy is not a data policy. Contacts are exportable to CSV and vCard on every plan, including free, so nothing is locked in either way.

Do UK phones support Apple Wallet passes?

Every iPhone does, everywhere, because Wallet is part of iOS and cannot be removed. There is nothing region-specific about a pass. The platform matters for you rather than for the people you meet: on an iPhone your card goes into Apple Wallet, on an Android phone (Android 9 or later) into Google Wallet, and anyone you show it to opens your page from its QR code and saves you to their contacts, on any phone.

Can I use it for a UK limited company?

Yes, and the ability to correct a card after it is issued is worth more here than people expect. Trading names change, registered addresses move and a card with a superseded company name on it is a small ongoing embarrassment. Edit it once and your pass, your page and the QR code you print all show the corrected name.
