## What is CardAction?

Turn paper business cards into saved contacts, CRM leads and spreadsheet rows. CardAction combines on-device business card scanning with a searchable card library and follow-up shortcuts for WhatsApp, SMS, email and calls.

SCAN WITH AUTO OR TAP

- Track the card edges with a steady outline that refines as you position the card.
- Let Auto-Scan capture a steady card, or use Tap-to-Scan when you want control.
- Text recognition begins on the captured image in both modes.
- Review names, phone numbers, email addresses, companies, job titles and addresses before saving.
- Edit fields, assign recognised text and add international dialling codes.

FRONT-BACK CARDS, ONE CONTACT

Some cards put a name on one side and contact details on the other. Choose Front-Back, capture the front, flip the card and scan the back. CardAction reads both sides and combines them into one Library entry with both photos. Review the combined details and any alternative values before saving.

SAVE AND ORGANISE YOUR NETWORK

- Save contacts to iPhone Contacts.
- Keep the original card photos with each Library entry.
- View the Front and Back photos of two-sided cards.
- Group contacts into custom folders and find them with search.
- Check for matching phone numbers and email addresses when saving.

FOLLOW UP INSTANTLY

- Open WhatsApp with a personalised message ready to send.
- Prepare reusable SMS and email templates.
- Use variables such as {name} in your messages.
- Open the phone app to call a contact.

OPTIONAL BATCH SCANNING

Batch scanning is off by default. Enable it in Settings when you want to scan a stack of cards, then review and save them together. Single and Front-Back modes stay within easy reach on the scanner.

GOOGLE SHEETS AND CRM WORKFLOWS

With Pro, set up Google Sheets sync to send scanned contact details to a spreadsheet. Connect a compatible webhook endpoint to send contact data as JSON to your CRM or tools such as n8n, Make, Zapier, Airtable or Notion. Integrations require configuration and an internet connection.

EXPORT AND SHARE

Export saved contacts as standard vCard (.vcf) files. Create a vCard QR code to share your own contact information. Add a selfie with a new contact so you can remember the person behind the card.

ON-DEVICE OCR

Business card text recognition runs on your device. Card photos are not uploaded to a server for OCR. Scan offline; configured sync and third-party messaging services need their own connections. Recognition results depend on the card, supported script, lighting and image quality, so review the details before saving.

CARDACTION PRO

Start free with daily limits. Pro offers unlimited scans, longer message templates, automatic contact saving, Google Sheets sync and webhook integrations.

- Choose a monthly or annual paid subscription, or Lifetime Pro with a one-time purchase.
- Paid subscriptions and Lifetime Pro let you turn off the CardAction credit line on outgoing messages.
- Lifetime (Promo) includes Pro features with the credit line always enabled.

Built for sales teams, recruiters, founders, event attendees and anyone turning business cards into real conversations.

### 5/5 — Fantastic app

Works great with both single and batch of business card. Details can be moved around easily. What I like the best is the app makes a qr code of your business card which can be scanned by any device.

### 5/5 — Excellent Card Scan App

*2026-05-15*

I used to leave my industry expos with stacks of business cards I never looked at again until I found this AI business card scanner. It captures the details instantly right on my phone, meaning I can shoot over a personalized WhatsApp and share my own vCard QR code before the conversation is even over. Every new contact syncs straight to my Google Sheet and CRM without me having to type a single thing. Kudos.

### 5/5 — One of the most useful Apps for me!

*2026-05-15*

Running the Desai Brothers hardware supply means I swap dozens of cards with bearing manufacturers and contractors every single week. I use this AI business card scanner to grab their details instantly and shoot over a quick WhatsApp about our latest fastener stock right from the shop floor. The fact that it automatically pushes those new contacts straight into my Google Sheet saves me hours of manual data entry. nice.
