The 10-minute virtual card quality checklist
Ten quick checks for a card that feels credible, loads cleanly and makes the next action obvious.
Before you share your card widely, review it on your own phone and ask someone else to try it. Small problems become much easier to spot when you behave like a first-time visitor.
Identity and trust
- Use a recent, recognisable photo or a clear business logo.
- State your role in plain language.
- Check every phone number, email address and spelling.
- Keep your visual style consistent with your other professional profiles.
Action and usability
- Make one primary action visually obvious.
- Test the save-contact flow on both iPhone and Android.
- Open every external link.
- Keep essential information visible without excessive scrolling.
- Check text contrast in bright light.
- Ask whether every link helps the visitor decide or act.
Recheck after every update
Treat your card as a small professional website. Review it after a role change, campaign launch or new portfolio release, and schedule a quick check every few months.
