What is a custom vCard email signature?

A custom email signature in the vCard platform is a branded signature block created from your vCard details.

QR TIGER helps users create and manage digital business cards, then use those details for Gmail-ready email signatures.

It may include your:

  • Full name
  • Profile photo
  • Job title
  • Address
  • Email address
  • QR code
  • Phone number
  • Website
  • Company logo
  • Social media links

Your digital business card with a QR code gives recipients quick access to your contact details, allowing them to view, save, and add you to their list easily.
