What is vCard Generator?

A vCard (Virtual Contact File) is the standard file format for electronic business cards. vCard files use the .vcf extension and store contact information such as name, phone numbers, email addresses, organization, title, and physical address in a structured text format. vCards are universally supported by contact management applications including Apple Contacts, Google Contacts, Microsoft Outlook, and virtually every smartphone contacts app. When you share a .vcf file, the recipient can import all your contact details with a single click — no manual typing required. The vCard format was originally developed by the Versit Consortium in 1995 and is now maintained as an Internet standard (RFC 6350 for vCard 4.0, RFC 2426 for vCard 3.0). This tool generates vCard 3.0 format, which has the widest compatibility across devices and applications.

How to Use vCard Generator

Fill in the contact information fields: full name, organization, job title, email addresses, phone numbers (with type: work, home, or mobile), website URL, physical address, birthday, and any notes. The vCard preview updates in real time as you type. When finished, click "Download .vcf" to save the vCard file, or "Copy vCard Text" to copy the raw vCard 3.0 text to your clipboard. The .vcf file can be imported into any contacts app.

How vCard Generator Works

The generator takes your input and formats it according to the vCard 3.0 specification (RFC 2426). The vCard format is a structured text format where each property appears on its own line: - `BEGIN:VCARD` and `END:VCARD` delimit the card - `VERSION:3.0` specifies the vCard version - `FN:` contains the full formatted name - `ORG:` contains the organization name - `TITLE:` contains the job title - `TEL;TYPE=WORK:` contains phone numbers with type labels - `EMAIL:` contains email addresses - `ADR:` contains structured address components - `URL:` contains the website URL - `BDAY:` contains the birthday in ISO format - `NOTE:` contains additional notes The .vcf file download is created entirely in your browser using a Blob object — no data is uploaded to any server. The file can be opened by any contacts application on any platform.
