Example of what happens next: Anita Shah scans Eleanor’s card, saves Eleanor to their contacts and chooses to send their own details back. The next morning at 09:00, Cardr Pro reminds Eleanor to follow up, with the email already drafted.
The client instructs three weeks later, and calls whoever is in their phone. You cannot chase, so you need to be there when they decide, and known to the accountants and brokers who refer. With Cardr, clients save you in one scan, and referrers can send their details back.
One scan. You’re in their phone. They can send theirs.

Example
The gap between the meeting and the instruction.
The first consultation
- Three weeks
- No chasing
- Sideways referrals
Nothing happens for a fortnight. That gap is the entire risk, and no amount of good work in the meeting shortens it.
- Three weeks. The gap between the consultation and the instruction. Nothing you do in the meeting shortens it.
- No chasing. The register of the work rules out the follow-up that other trades run on. One message, well judged, is the whole allowance.
- Sideways referrals. Half the work arrives from accountants, brokers and other firms, where the exchange has to run both ways.
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.

- Edit once, it updates
- Private client · Bristol
- One scan, no app
- Opens with no signal
A private client meeting ends with real intent and no action. They talk to family, wait for the survey, see what the other side does. The decision lands weeks later, wherever your details happen to be.
A printed card loses to a folder of paperwork. A contact saved on their phone is there when it finally happens, and it links back to your card page.
The other half of the work arrives sideways, from accountants, IFAs, brokers and other firms. Those handovers need the exchange to run both ways: their details matter to you as much as yours to them.
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.
Appropriate to the work, which is the hard part.

- Found when they decide. You are a saved contact on their phone.
- The referrers on record. When an accountant or broker saves you, they can send their details back. Note who actually sends work.
- The matter on the name. “Probate, two siblings, property in Spain” on the contact, so the file starts warm.
- Nothing sends by itself. Pro drafts one well-judged follow-up and reminds you. Nothing goes to anyone unless you send it.
- Your details stay right. Change firm, direct dial or title once, and your page and your pass show it.
- Regulatory details on the card. Your SRA number and firm details fit, and unlike print they can be corrected.
The card is free. Pro does the follow-up.
Everything in the first column stays free, with no expiry and no limit on exchanges or contacts. Pro adds what happens after the meeting.

Solicitors, answered.
Does it fit the SRA rules on approaches?
Paragraph 8.9 of the SRA Code of Conduct says you do not make unsolicited approaches to members of the public, other than current or former clients, to advertise your legal services (SRA guidance, 16 December 2019, read 29 October 2026). Cardr drafts and you decide whether anything goes, so that judgement stays yours.
Does the client 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 use it for referrers rather than clients?
Yes, and referrals are where much of the work comes from. An accountant or broker you meet saves you, then can send their details back, and your note records who refers and who only said they would.
Where does the contact data sit?
On our servers while you use the product, exportable to CSV or vCard on every plan, including free. It is not a case management system: nothing privileged belongs in a contact note. Our privacy page sets out what is stored.
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, 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.
