V1CE Alternative
V1CE: $49.99 for one card. Us: $39.99 for fifty.
V1CE makes premium NFC cards and accessories with a sleek design. But you get one card at a high price. QR Business Cards gives you a full stack of printed cards for less.
V1CE
V1CE (pronounced "vice") sells premium NFC cards, metal cards, and accessories. A single NFC card starts at $49.99, with premium metal versions up to $125. They also sell NFC-enabled phone cases and stands. No monthly subscription, but you get exactly one card per purchase.
QR Business Cards
For $39.99 — less than a single V1CE card — you get 50 premium printed business cards. Each has a QR code linking to your free digital profile. You can hand them out freely, leave stacks at events, and include them in proposals. QR codes work universally; NFC doesn't.

Frequently asked questions
Is V1CE better than QR Business Cards?
V1CE makes beautiful, premium NFC cards that impress one person at a time. QR Business Cards lets you reach everyone in the room. If you want to make a mass impression at conferences, trade shows, or networking events, 50 cards for $39.99 beats 1 card for $49.99.
What do I actually get for $39.99?
You get 50 premium printed business cards on 14pt card stock, each with a QR code on the back that links to your free digital profile. Free shipping is included. Unlike V1CE, there is no monthly subscription — the digital profile is free forever, and you only pay once for the printed cards.
Do I need to install an app to use the cards?
No. Your cards are scanned with any phone camera — no app is required on either side. Your digital profile opens in any mobile browser. This is the main difference from V1CE, which typically requires their app or an account to get the full experience.
Can I update my contact info without reprinting cards?
Yes. The QR code on every card points to your digital profile, which you can edit anytime. Change jobs, update your phone number, swap your photo — every card you've already handed out still scans to the current version of your profile.
How long does shipping take?
Orders are printed and shipped in 3–5 business days. You'll get a tracking number by email once your cards ship. Shipping is free on every order in the US.
