The short answer: Mobilo and Cardr both make a digital business card, and both are good at it. Both put a real pass in Apple Wallet and in Google Wallet. The difference is what happens after the handshake. Mobilo is strongest at teams that want every card feeding a CRM, cheaply. Cardr is built for the follow-up you keep meaning to send.

Why anyone searches for a Mobilo alternative.
Almost always one specific thing rather than a general dissatisfaction. If it is not this one, we are probably not your answer either.
Mobilo is built for teams. Its homepage leads with “Digital Business Card for teams”, team cards are priced per seat on top of the card, and its custom landing pages and white-glove onboarding need 100 seats or more. One person who wants a card and a follow-up can find more there than they need.
Everything else about Mobilo is fine, and on the points below they beat us. So the useful question is not “which is better” but whether the thing that sent you looking is a thing we actually fix. On the follow-up: Cardr drafts each message from the note you kept about that person, and reminds you on the day they named.
Nothing for them to download.

What Mobilo does better than us.
A comparison page that only flatters the people who wrote it is an advert. Here is the honest half.
Mobilo prices low and builds for teams: a free digital card that goes into Apple or Google Wallet, Pro at “$3 /month”, team management, lead enrichment, a paper card scanner, “6,000 Integrations through Zapier”, and its own NFC cards in plastic, wood and metal. Mobilo AI scores leads against your ideal customer profile. For a sales team that meets people at events, that is a lot of product for the price.
If you need CRM sync, NFC cards from the same company or a team managed from one place, Mobilo does all of them and Cardr connects to no CRM at all. Mobilo Pro is also cheaper than Cardr Pro.
Pick on what breaks for you.
The choice between Cardr and Mobilo is not close once you know which of these you are. Read down the left column and stop at the first line that is you.
- You already run a CRM and want cards feeding it Blinq Blinq lists native connections to 20+ CRMs. Cardr has none at all.
- You want the most on a free tier, both wallets included Wave Connect Unlimited contacts, a lead form and both wallets for $0, as published.
- You run events with a team and a stand Popl Built for badge scanning at scale, sold through a sales conversation rather than a signup page.
- You want a physical NFC card in your hand Any NFC vendor Cardr sells no NFC cards. Buy a tag from anyone and point it at your cardr.co address.
- You meet enough people and never send the follow-up Cardr The exchange returns their details, the context is kept against the name, and the message is drafted and then chased.
Nobody loses a deal because the card was ugly.
Cardr is for one person who meets people and means to follow up. You keep one sentence about who they are and when to come back, Cardr reminds you on that day, and it drafts the message from what you wrote. The card is a signed Apple Wallet pass you make on the web in about a minute.

Round-up The best digital business cardsSide by side, including the ones that beat us.
Cardr and Mobilo, answered.
Checked against Mobilo’s published pages on 12 October 2026.
Is Cardr cheaper than Mobilo?
No. Both have a free card, and Mobilo Pro at "$3 /month" is cheaper than Cardr Pro at £12 a month, or £9 billed annually. They sell different things at that price: Mobilo’s paid plans are more card and lead tooling, Cardr Pro is the follow-up done for you.
Does Mobilo do Apple Wallet passes?
Yes, and Google Wallet as well, as Cardr does. Mobilo ships an Apple Wallet pass, and anyone telling you otherwise is selling you something. The pass itself is not the difference between these products.
Can I move from Mobilo to Cardr?
There is nothing to migrate. Build a Cardr, add it to your Wallet, and start handing that out instead. Anyone who already saved your old card keeps it; it just stops being the one you share. Cardr also exports everything to CSV or vCard, on the free plan as well as Pro, so you are never locked in here either.
Is there a free alternative to Mobilo?
Cardr’s free plan is the complete digital business card: a signed Apple Wallet pass, your page at cardr.co/yourname, a QR code, unlimited scans and shares, live updates to your pass and your page, and the two-way exchange that returns their details to you. No expiry, no card details taken and no scan cap. Mobilo also publishes a free tier, so compare where each one is capped rather than whether a free plan exists.
Should I pick Mobilo instead?
If you need CRM sync, NFC cards from the same company or a team managed from one place, Mobilo does all of them and Cardr connects to no CRM at all. Mobilo Pro is also cheaper than Cardr Pro.
Try the free one before you pay anybody.
The Cardr free tier is the whole card and it does not expire. If it is not better for you than what you are on, you have lost a minute.
