Digital business card for car sales They said they would think about it.
A free card for the forecourt: after the test drive they save you in one scan, and can send their number back.
Free forever · No card details · About a minute

Example of what happens next: Gary Doyle scans Danny’s card, saves Danny to their contacts and chooses to send their own details back. The next morning at 09:00, Cardr Pro reminds Danny to follow up, with the email already drafted.
“We’ll think about it,” and they drive to the next forecourt. The sale goes to whoever calls back with something specific. With Cardr they save you in one scan, can send their number back, and what they wanted sits on their name. Pro drafts the follow-up that evening.
One scan. You’re in their phone. They can send theirs.

Example
The forecourt, after the test drive.
The forecourt
- Twenty minutes
- They shop
- Outdoors
Twenty minutes of genuine interest, then a walk to their own car and a week of silence.
- Twenty minutes. Genuine, engaged interest, followed by a walk back to their own car and a week of silence.
- They shop. Yours is the third forecourt of the day. Being the one they can still find on Thursday is the whole job.
- Outdoors. Wind, rain and a phone with 8% battery. Paper does not survive the walk to the car.
Each constraint decides the format. A card that fails any one of the three does not get used a second time, however good it looks.

- One scan, no app
- Opens with no signal
A buyer who liked dealing with you can only come back to you if they still have your name, and a card from a pile on the desk is gone by the weekend.
The follow-up has to be specific to work. “Just checking in” is what every dealer sends. “The estate you drove is still here, and the finance came back lower than I quoted” gets a reply, and it depends on you writing down what they drove and what worried them.
So capture it on the forecourt, not at closing time after six more customers and a delivery.
Nothing for them to download.
Tap through what Tom sees when he scans your card.
No app, no account, no sign-up for the people you meet.
Make yours in about a minute.
Free forever, and nothing for the people you meet to install.
The second visit, caused on purpose.

- The follow-up written. Pro drafts it from your note, for 200 people a month, specific enough to get a reply.
- A nudge on day three. Pro reminds you at 09:00 while they are still deciding, before they buy elsewhere.
- Your customers follow you. Change dealership and your page and pass show the new details, and your QR code keeps working.
- The whole showroom on brand. Cardr Teams puts the dealership’s logo on every card from one console. 30 days free.

Car sales, answered.
Does it connect to our DMS or CRM?
No. Cardr has no integrations. Every plan, including free, exports contacts to CSV and vCard for import. If every lead must land in the DMS automatically, Cardr does not do that.
Can the whole sales floor use it?
Yes, with Cardr Teams: the dealership’s name and logo on every card, managed in one place, with a 30-day trial. Leads are not pooled, so each salesperson keeps their own list.
Does the customer need an app?
No. Your QR code opens your card as a web page on their phone, iPhone or Android, and they save you to their contacts from there. Nobody downloads an app or creates an account.
Can I put my QR code on a window sticker?
Yes. Your QR code is permanent, so print it on the windscreen card, the desk or the brochure. It opens your card, and changing your details never breaks it.
What happens if I move dealership?
Edit your card once and your page and pass show the new dealership and number, and your QR code keeps working. The contact a customer saved links back to that page.
What does it cost?
Free forever, no card details: your card, page and Apple Wallet pass, the two-way exchange, and every contact with notes, search and export. Pro, £12 a month or £108 a year (£9 a month), adds drafted follow-ups, day-three reminders and all 16 pass designs. 7 days free, then 30 days to change your mind.
Free forever. About a minute to build.
Nothing for the other person to install, and no card details to start.
