There are three ways to share a digital business card on LINE: sharing your LINE profile (fastest but basic), sending a contact card, or sharing a dedicated digital business card link. The link method is best for B2B sales as it allows you to showcase services, products, and booking links while tracking views.
In Taiwan and several other Asian markets, LINE is the go-to app for exchanging contact information. Naturally, many sales professionals ask, "How do I send my digital business card through LINE?"
This article covers 3 ways to share digital business cards on LINE, along with their pros, cons, and best-use cases. (To understand the broader concept of digital business cards first, check out our Complete Digital Business Card Guide.)
Disclosure: This article is written by the Card2Gold team. We objectively explain various ways to send business cards via LINE. Card2Gold is just one of many digital business card tools available. Features and pricing are subject to official announcements. Information compiled as of July 2026.
Method 1: Share Your LINE Profile / Add Friend (Fastest)
The simplest way is to have the other person add you as a LINE friend or share your profile directly.
How it works: Open your LINE profile → tap "Share" or show your "Add Friend" QR Code.
Pros: Zero cost, almost everyone in Taiwan uses LINE, instant connection.
Cons: Only provides basic contact info. You cannot showcase services, products, or booking links, and you can't track who viewed it.
Best for: Casual networking where you just want to "add each other on LINE and chat later."
Method 2: Send a Contact Information Card
LINE allows you to send a contact card (vCard format) directly within a chat.
How it works: Open a chat room → tap "+" → select "Contact" → choose the contact you want to share → send.
Pros: The recipient can save the contact to their phone's address book with a single click.
Cons: Limited to basic fields like name and phone number.
Best for: Quickly referring someone else's contact details to a third party.
Method 3: Share a Digital Business Card Link (Most Professional & Customizable)
Create a digital business card page first, get a permanent link (and a QR Code), and then paste that link into LINE to share with anyone.
How it works:
1. Fill in your name, job title, services, products, and booking links in a digital business card tool.
2. Generate your unique business card link and QR Code.
3. Paste the link into a LINE chat or let the other person scan your QR Code.
Pros:
- Displays services, products, and online booking links, not just basic contact info.
- The link remains permanent; updating details doesn't require sending a new link.
- Some tools let you track who opened it and how many times, helping you time your follow-ups.
Cons: Requires a few minutes of initial setup to create your card page.
Using Card2Gold's personal digital business card as an example, once you fill in your details, it generates a unique link and QR Code. You can paste this directly into LINE. When prospects open the page, they can contact you instantly, and their details flow directly into your card database for seamless lead management.
There are three main ways: share your LINE profile/QR code, send a contact card directly in a chat, or create a dedicated digital business card page and share its permanent link or QR code on LINE. If you want to showcase products, services, and booking links while tracking engagement, the third method is the most complete solution.
Sharing your LINE profile and sending contact cards are free, built-in features of LINE. If you choose the third method (sharing a digital business card link), the cost depends on the tool you use. Most tools, including Card2Gold, offer free plans or affordable monthly subscriptions.
The concept is the same: digitizing contact info to share it easily. The only difference is that LINE is the delivery channel. In practice, the best approach is to create a versatile digital business card page and share that same link via LINE, email, or QR code.
Once you generate a QR code using a digital business card tool, you can send the QR code image or the card link directly into a LINE chat. When meeting in person, you can also display the QR code on your phone for the other person to scan.
Yes. If you use the "digital business card link" method (Method 3), the link is not restricted to LINE. You can share it via email, SMS, QR codes, or social media bios. The recipient can open it in any web browser, even if they don't have a LINE account.
