What is a MeCard QR code and how does it work

A MeCard QR code is a QR code that turns a printed contact card into a saved phone contact. It encodes the compact NTT DoCoMo MeCard format, which many iOS and Android scanners can read directly without any third-party app. After scanning, the recipient can save the name, phone number, and email to Contacts in one tap.

You can add your logo, brand colours, and AI-designed pixel styling so the code matches your business card design or event branding. Print it on visiting cards, jewellery tags, pen engravings, keychain inserts, or embedded developer devices. Because the MeCard payload stays compact, a MeCard QR code often fits where a vCard version would become too dense. MeCard QR codes are static by design, with the contact details encoded directly into the pixel pattern, so the information stays fixed after printing.

Build a MeCard payload and generate the QR in 3 steps

Add name, phone, and email in the compact MeCard format, customise the QR code with logo and AI pixel styling, then download PNG, SVG, or PDF for small-format printing.

  1. Step 1

    Build your MeCard payload

    Enter the MeCard details: name (N), phone (TEL), email (EMAIL), and optional URL or address. Keep the content concise so the compact payload fits neatly on tags, corners, or other small print areas.

  2. Step 2

    Customise the QR code

    Add your logo, brand colours, and pixel patterns. Choose from 1200+ templates or generate QR Code Art to match your business card style, event identity, or brand look.

  3. Step 3

    Print and share

    Export in PNG, SVG, or PDF. Print on business cards, jewellery tags, engraved corners, or keychain inserts. Test the scan first on iPhone Camera, default Android camera, and ZXing-based scanners.

Frequently asked questions about MeCard QR codes

Quick answers on compact contact QR formats and MeCard vs vCard use cases.

Enter your name, phone number, email, and optional company details in QR Code AI, then choose MeCard as the format. The tool builds the compact NTT DOCOMO-style payload and encodes it into the QR code. You can then customise it with your photo, logo, and brand colours before downloading PNG, SVG, or PDF. The finished code lets people save the contact in one tap and works especially well for small print spaces.

Use MeCard when you need a very compact contact payload for small labels, card corners, keychains, or engraved surfaces. Use vCard when you need richer contact information such as multiple phone numbers, addresses, organisation details, or broader modern compatibility. For most global business use, vCard is the fuller standard, while MeCard is better when space is limited.

Yes. MeCard QR codes are static by design, which means the contact data is encoded directly into the pixel pattern. QR Code AI lets you generate and customise them for free, then download copies in PNG, SVG, or PDF. You can also add logo, colours, and AI-designed pixel styling without changing the core static contact format.

A MeCard payload supports 8 main fields: name (N), phone (TEL), email (EMAIL), URL, address (ADR), nickname (NICKNAME), birthday (BDAY), and a memo note. It is designed to stay compact, so the structure is simpler than vCard. If one contact needs multiple phone numbers or more detailed profile data, vCard is usually the better choice.

No. A native MeCard QR code is static, so the data is embedded directly in the QR pattern and there is no redirect layer for scan tracking. If you need Analytics in a contact-sharing flow, you can place a tracked short link in the URL field or use a URL QR code that opens a hosted contact page instead. MeCard by itself does not record scans.
