VutesaA digital business card that does more than hold your number
Your card is your Bio / Profile Page. People can save your contact, scan a QR code or open your link, then book time or send a message without asking you for anything.
What the contact file contains
The contact file holds your name, plus the fields below when they are on. If you hide your phone number on your page, it stays out of the file. If your company locks a field as hidden, it stays out too.
- Always: your name.
- When public: phone number, email address and job title.
- When enabled in Save Contact settings: profile photo (JPEG or PNG, compressed for phone address books), company name, your profile address and tagline.
- Downloads are rate limited to 30 per minute from one address.
What gets recorded, and what does not
Each download is logged by where it started: the Save Contact button, the share sheet or the QR code. Saving your contact does not create a CRM record, because Upward has no name or email for the person at that point. When they come to your page and book, send a message or subscribe, that action creates a lead. If they arrived through a tracked link, the lead can carry it as its first known source.
Paper cards still work
Print the Homepage QR or a Tracked Link QR on a physical card. A Tracked Link QR also tells you how many people scanned it, so you can tell whether the printed card is earning its cost.
Who it's for
How it works
Set up your page
Add your photo, title, phone, email and company. Set which details are public.

In Bio settings, turn Save Contact on and pick photo, company, title, profile address and tagline.
Share it

Anyone who books, writes or subscribes from your page becomes a lead in your CRM.
What's included
Save Contact button
A one-tap download of a standard contact file (vCard 3.0) that opens in any phone or computer address book.
Choose what is included
Photo, company name, job title, profile address and tagline are each switchable. Tagline is off by default.
Public details only
Phone, email, title and photo are included only when you show them on your page, and company field rules still apply.
QR that switches
The share sheet QR can open your profile or save your contact, with a switch labeled QR: View profile and QR: Save contact.
Homepage QR
A QR badge under your profile photo opens a downloadable Homepage Link code.
Tracked share link
Sharing your page creates a short link on your own address that counts clicks.
Book from the card
Schedule a Meeting and Contact Me sit on the same page, so interest can become an appointment.
Your branding
Your page carries your colors and logo, and company branding where the company sets it.
How Upward is different
Frequently asked questions
Do people need an app to receive my card?
No. They open a link or scan a QR code in their camera. Save Contact downloads a standard contact file that phones and computers understand.
Can I turn Save Contact off?
Yes. Switch it off in Bio settings and the button disappears and the download is no longer available.
Does the card add the person to my CRM?
Not by itself. A lead is created when they book a meeting, submit a form or subscribe from your page.
Can my whole team have cards?
Yes. Every replicated member has their own page and card, with company branding and field rules applied.

Sharing
Your Bio / Profile Page has one share sheet for your page, your videos, reviews, recent work and events. Every share uses a short tracked link, so clicks are counted and the right person can be credited.
QR Codes
A QR code on a card, a flyer, a slide or a name tag should lead somewhere you can measure. In Upward, QR codes are built into every share sheet and every Tracked Link.
Bio / Profile Pages
More than a link in bio. Your Upward page showcases who you are and what you do — and connects every visitor action to your CRM.
Scheduling
Let people book you from your Bio/Profile Page, a direct link or a chat, with availability you control and a CRM lead for every booking.
Tracked Links
A normal link gets someone from one place to another. A Tracked Link also tells you whether it was opened, when, from where, and, if you made it for a person, by whom.
What is a digital business card?
