CompanyCard is a digital business card for people and teams — no hardware to buy, free to start, no team seat minimum, and flat published pricing (Pro $7.99/month or $5.99/month billed yearly; Business $12 per user/month).
CompanyCard shares by QR, link and wallet pass — nothing to buy, ship or lose, and nothing extra to order when a new employee joins.
Blinq's Business plan bills a minimum of five team cards. CompanyCard has no seat minimum, so a two- or three-person business can run branded cards without paying for empty seats.
Locked brand templates, one admin dashboard and directory import — so rolling out to the whole company stays simple and on brand.
Blinq, HiHello and Popl are all capable products, and the honest advice is to try two or three and keep the one your team will still use in a year. Here's where CompanyCard tends to fit differently — verify each vendor's current features and pricing on their own site, as they change.
Blinq is a polished digital business card platform and a genuinely strong free tier: as of August 2026 its free plan includes two cards, an email signature, a virtual background and Apple and Google Wallet — so those are not points of difference, and we won't pretend they are. CompanyCard covers the same core sharing (QR, link, wallet, no app for the receiver). Where the two genuinely diverge is team pricing: Blinq's Business plan carries a minimum of five team cards, while CompanyCard has no seat minimum and publishes flat per-user pricing, which matters if your "team" is you and two other people. On the free tier Blinq is ahead on count: two free cards to CompanyCard's one, and CompanyCard's free card carries a small CompanyCard credit (Pro removes it).
HiHello is well known for digital cards plus a business-card scanner, with free and paid tiers. Its free tier is more generous than ours on card count — four free cards to CompanyCard's one — though the free plan's scanner is capped at 5 card and badge scans per month. If your priority is a company-wide rollout that stays on brand, CompanyCard leans into team administration: invite links, role separation, Google Workspace or CSV import, and per-employee signatures and backgrounds — see digital business cards for teams.
Popl has repositioned: as of August 2026 popl.co leads with "Your AI GTM platform for in-person events" and its headline products are event lead capture, badge scanning and list enrichment, with digital business cards a secondary offering. It publishes no pricing — you book a demo for a quote. CompanyCard is the opposite shape: a self-serve digital business card with published rates and a free plan. See our Popl comparison for the detail.

The reason people put off changing tools is the fear of re-doing everything. With CompanyCard you migrate once: create your card, then update the link in the few places you control — your email signature, LinkedIn, and any printed QR codes. Because CompanyCard links never expire, you won't have to touch it again when your title or number changes; you just edit the card and every share updates instantly.
For individuals, start with a free digital business card. For a company rollout, the team dashboard imports your directory and puts everyone on brand on day one.
It depends on what you need. Blinq has a strong free tier — as of August 2026 it includes two cards, an email signature, a virtual background and Apple and Google Wallet — so those are not reasons to switch. The clearest reason to choose CompanyCard is team size and price: Blinq's Business plan bills a minimum of five team cards, while CompanyCard has no seat minimum and publishes flat pricing, so a two- or three-person business can run locked, branded cards without paying for empty seats.
For teams, look for locked brand templates, central administration with invite links, directory import, and per-employee signatures and video backgrounds. CompanyCard bundles all of those and lets an admin roll out on-brand cards across the whole company from one dashboard.
Popl has moved upmarket. As of August 2026 it presents itself as an AI platform for in-person event lead capture, with digital business cards a secondary offering, and it does not publish pricing — you book a demo to get a quote. CompanyCard is a self-serve digital business card with published rates and a free plan, so you can start without a sales call.
No. You can create a full digital business card free — QR and link included, unlimited edits, no credit card. Teams upgrade only when they need brand locking, admin controls and analytics.
Create your CompanyCard, then update the link in the places you control — your email signature, LinkedIn and any printed QR codes. Because CompanyCard links never expire, this migration is a one-time job.
No. Your card opens in any phone browser from a QR scan or link, and one tap saves a complete contact (vCard). The receiver installs nothing.
Make a card, share it with a colleague, count the taps. No hardware, no credit card.
