Uniqode's paid plans are annual-only and start at two seats. If you'd rather pay monthly, or you're a single person who doesn't need a second seat, that's the gap CompanyCard fills.
Uniqode is a capable platform with a broader QR-code product line, and its free tier — one card for a single user, free forever as of July 2026 — is a reasonable starting point.
The friction people run into is commercial rather than functional. Uniqode states plainly that it does not offer monthly plans: paid subscriptions are annual, and its Team plan starts at two seats. If you are a sole trader, or a business that would rather test something for a month before committing a year of budget, that is the decision point.
CompanyCard bills monthly, has no seat minimum, and publishes its rates. That is the whole of the difference worth claiming — we are not going to invent feature gaps we have not verified.

The two structural reasons are billing and seats. As of July 2026 Uniqode states it does not offer monthly plans — paid subscriptions are annual only — and its Team plan requires at least two seats. For a solo professional or a business that wants to pay month to month, that is a commitment decision before it is a product decision.
Yes. As of July 2026 Uniqode lets you create one digital business card free, for a single user, and states cards created on the free plan remain free forever. Check uniqode.com/pricing for current terms.
CompanyCard bills monthly, has no seat minimum, and publishes flat rates: free for one card, $8 a month for Pro, $12 per user a month for Business. You can add one colleague and pay for one colleague, without an annual commitment.
Not on the headline number for a team: Uniqode's Team plan is $6 per user per month against our $12 Business, though theirs is annual-only and ours is not. For a single person our Pro is $8 a month billed monthly. Which is cheaper depends entirely on whether you want to commit for a year — compare on your own headcount and billing preference.
The free plan includes one digital business card, a QR code and sharing link, your profile, links and socials, an Apple and Google Wallet pass, and unlimited edits — free forever, no credit card. Free cards carry a small CompanyCard credit; removing it is part of Pro.
