Features

Can I scan physical business cards into Snapcard?

Event attendees and sales reps who meet dozens of people need to capture paper cards before details fade. SnapCard scans business cards with your phone camera and saves a contact you can tag and search. On Free you get 10 scans per month; Solopreneur includes 100. Works on iPhone and Android—enable notifications for a prompt when background processing finishes.

Can I share my Snapcard with someone who doesn’t use the app?

Yes, you can send your card as a URL and they can download it on their phone. Or they can scan your Snapcard QR code and get your card/contact. The best part is they can immediately join and have their own Snapcard in less than 30 seconds.

How does SnapCard help me at networking events and conferences?

At events and conferences, SnapCard lets you share your details instantly via QR, capture where and when you met someone, and add quick notes while the conversation is fresh. Later, SnapCard reminds you to follow up and helps you recall context, turning quick exchanges into real opportunities instead of forgotten business cards.

Will SnapCard help me stay in touch with old colleagues and friends?

SnapCard is designed to help you stay in touch with old colleagues and friends by sending smart reminders and surfacing timely reconnect opportunities. You can mark important contacts as "keep in touch," customize how often you want to reconnect, and get nudges when you haven't spoken in a while or when you're in the same city.

How do reminders and "keep in touch" work in SnapCard?

SnapCard lets you mark contacts you want to "keep in touch" with and then sends reminders based on the frequency you choose. You can set custom intervals per contact, use a default frequency for new contacts, and get suggestions for who to reconnect with if you haven't spoken to them in a while.
reminders follow up

How do proximity alerts work in SnapCard?

With your permission, SnapCard uses location to create natural reconnect moments by notifying you when you're in the same city or near places that matter to a contact. For example, SnapCard can alert you if you're traveling to a contact's city or visiting a restaurant they love, so you can reach out at the right time.
proximity alerts location

Can I categorize or tag contacts in SnapCard (for example, "sales lead" or "investor")?

Yes, you can organize your contacts in SnapCard with custom tags like "sales lead," "investor," "friend," or anything else that matters to you. You can also add notes and reminders per contact, so you remember why they're important and when you want to reach out again.

About Snapcard

What is SnapCard?

SnapCard is a digital business card app and AI-powered personal CRM that helps you remember who you met, where you met, and when to reconnect. It replaces paper business cards with QR-based sharing, lets you add private notes and tags on each contact, and sends smart reminders and proximity alerts so your relationships don't fade over time.

How does Snapcard ensure I don’t forget to use it over time?

Snapcard is designed to make you a power networker and keep you connected with your contacts effortlessly.
Here’s how we ensure you stay engaged:

  • Timely Nudges: When you install Snapcard, grant the permissions it requests (like location access). We’ll nudge you to reconnect with contacts at the right time, notify you when you’re near them, in the same city, at a familiar place, or if we find relevant events that create reconnect opportunities.
  • Proactive Alerts: Get notifications about proximity, location-based triggers, and networking opportunities, so staying in touch feels natural and rewarding.
  • Habit-Building Tools: Features like smart search, notes, and tags (available in premium plans) save time and effort, making Snapcard a seamless part of your networking routine.
    Mobile Convenience: As a mobile-first app, Snapcard is always ready when you are, whether you’re meeting new people or following up.

    We’re here to keep you connected—your network is your net worth, and Snapcard ensures you never miss a beat!
Better networking Build lasting connections

How is SnapCard different from other digital business card apps like HiHello or Popl?

SnapCard goes beyond basic QR business cards by acting as a personal CRM that tracks context, notes, reminders, and proximity alerts for each relationship. Instead of just storing contact info, SnapCard helps you nurture connections over time by remembering when and where you met people and nudging you to follow up.

Can I sync my LinkedIn or Google contacts to Snapcard?

Not currently, and that’s by design. Snapcard is all about building high-quality, intentional relationships, not just bulk imports. We believe in keeping your network focused and meaningful, which is why we don’t automatically sync with platforms like LinkedIn or Google Contacts.


Instead, we make it easy to manually add key contacts by sharing or receiving Snapcards. Every contact in Snapcard is structured, contextual, and de-duplicated, so your network stays clean and actionable—no messy imports here.


That said, we’re actively exploring secure ways to offer controlled syncing in the future. You might soon be able to selectively pull in high-value connections from tools like Google Contacts, ensuring your Snapcard network stays premium. We’re also looking into ways to help you bulk import contacts and manage your overall network alongside platforms like LinkedIn, all while keeping our focus on quality networking that turns contacts into lasting connections.


Stay tuned, and let us know if this is a priority for you—we’re here to help you network smarter!

Better networking Build lasting connections

Can Snapcard help manage attendees at networking events or conferences?

No, Snapcard is not designed to help you manage large groups or attendees at networking events or conferences. Instead, Snapcard is your personal CRM superpower, built to help you build and nurture individual relationships with ease and confidence.

At conferences and networking events, Snapcard becomes your ultimate networking tool. Forget carrying stacks of business cards, scribbling notes, or struggling to remember who you met and when to follow up. With Snapcard, you can quickly share and collect contacts using QR codes, track every interaction, and set smart reminders to stay in touch—all without breaking a sweat. It’s like having a personal assistant in your pocket, ensuring you make the most of every handshake and conversation.

Whether you’re at a conference, a trade show, or a casual meetup, Snapcard empowers you to focus on what matters—building meaningful connections

Who is SnapCard for?

SnapCard is built for people who meet a lot of contacts and care about long-term relationships, like freelancers, founders, sales professionals, and frequent networkers. If your income or opportunities depend on staying in touch with people you meet at events, conferences, or in everyday life, SnapCard is designed for you.
freelancers founders sales networkers

Can SnapCard replace a traditional CRM like HubSpot or Salesforce?

SnapCard is a personal CRM built for individuals, not a full-blown sales or enterprise CRM like HubSpot or Salesforce. It's ideal for managing your own network, remembering context, and staying in touch, but it's not designed for team pipelines, complex deals, or company-wide sales workflows.

Does the Free plan remember where and when I met someone?

We save it — you unlock the view on Pro. Snapcard records meeting place and "we just met" history for all users so your relationship data stays complete.

On Free, location fields are hidden in the app. Proximity prompts are held back until you upgrade.

When you move to Solopreneur (Pro) or unlock the feature, your existing location history appears — nothing is lost from your Free period.

Basics

Data management

What happens if I lose my phone—can I recover my SnapCard data?

If you lose your phone, you can recover your SnapCard data by installing the app on a new device and signing in again. Your contacts and relationship intelligence live securely in the SnapCard cloud, so you don't lose your network even if you lose your hardware.

Integrations

Does SnapCard integrate with CRM tools like HubSpot, Salesforce, or Zoho?
