Digital business card platform comparison
Social Card vs. Blinq
Social Card is the digital business card platform for teams that won’t compromise their brand. Pixel-perfect control over every card, enforced across every employee and every surface.
Custom CSS and fonts, locked templates, your own domains, real-time brand sync. The everyday surfaces, wallet passes, QR codes, and email signatures, are here too. Brand depth is where we separate, and concierge launch is included on Business and Enterprise to roll it out.
Concierge launch included · 14-day self-serve trial · Trusted by 1,000+ teams

Qualifier
Before we compare, are you in the right place?
A quick, honest filter so nobody wastes time.
You’re in the right place if
- You have a brand to protect and want every business card to look like your design team built it.
- You’re rolling out digital business cards across a team and need central control. With no apps or hardware cards needed.
- You’re a Marketing, HR, Operations, or IT leader owning the decision looking for a modern alternative to paper.
- You value a concierge team in the loop for branding, provisioning, and launch support.
Self-serve works too
Smaller teams can self-serve through sign-up. Every plan gets the core product.

The case
Why teams choose Social Card
Brand control is the wedge. Four supporting strengths back it up.
Our wedge
More than a color picker and a logo
Most tools give employees a handful of brand fields and call it control. Social Card gives marketing the whole template, so the brand holds as you rebrand, restructure, and hire, without chasing down off-brand cards.
Concierge launch included on Business
We scope, build, provision, and launch it with you, where most platforms gate hands-on onboarding to Enterprise.
Built for team rollouts, not retrofitted
Bulk provisioning, groups, and admin workflows, built for the job from day one.
All five sharing platforms included from day one
Apple Wallet, Google Wallet, web pages, QR codes, and email signatures, in every plan.
See which cards actually get used
Views, taps, and clicks across the whole team, broken down by surface, link, and location.
Evaluation framework
The nine questions that decide how a rollout goes
A feature comparison tells you what each platform does. It does not tell you what happens when four hundred people get new titles, or how a rebrand reaches business cards already in the field. Our buyer’s guide covers the questions that decide that, with a scorecard you can take into your own evaluation.
- How much of the card can you actually control?
- What happens when someone’s details change?
- How do 400 people get set up, and stay set up?
- How do employees actually start using it?
- What does the contract do when headcount drops?
Plus four that need scoping before you weight them at all: identity controls, compliance evidence, data exit, and support.
