A card that works on a doorstep in the rain is not the same problem as a card that works on the second day of a trade show. Pick the one that looks like your week.
One product, 24 different moments of handover. A digital business card is not really about the card. It is about the ten seconds where you hand your details over, and those ten seconds are a completely different problem on a doorstep in the rain, on a gym floor with no pockets, and on the second day of a trade show. Each page below takes one of those scenes seriously.

The product is the same regardless. These pages exist because the moment of handover is genuinely different on a doorstep, a gym floor and an exhibition stand, and generic advice is useless in all three. If none of them describe your situation, the homepage covers the mechanism directly.
No. There is one Cardr, one free tier and one paid tier. Every page describes the same card, the same Apple Wallet pass and the same two-way exchange, applied to a different scene.
No, and no card details are taken to create one. The card, the Apple Wallet pass, your page, the QR code and the two-way exchange are free forever with no scan cap and no expiry.
No, on any of these pages. The pass goes into Apple Wallet, which Apple preinstalls on every iPhone and which cannot be deleted. Android users open your page from the QR code and save you to their contacts from there.
Nothing for the other person to install, and no card details to start.
