# Your Digital Business Card on WhatsApp Share your card in any chat with one link, and capture the cards you receive without leaving WhatsApp. > To share your digital business card on WhatsApp, send your card link in any chat: it opens in the browser and saves to contacts in one tap, no app needed. ConnectMachine also works inside WhatsApp itself: message its WhatsApp Assistant a photo of any paper card, and the contact appears in your app. For a huge share of the world, WhatsApp is where business actually happens: introductions, follow-ups, group chats after an event. A digital business card that fits WhatsApp is not a nice extra, it is the difference between your details living in the conversation and living in an app nobody opens. ConnectMachine fits WhatsApp in both directions. Outbound, your card is a link that drops into any chat and saves to contacts in one tap. Inbound, the WhatsApp Assistant turns photos of paper cards into clean contacts without you ever leaving the chat. ## One link that works in every chat Every ConnectMachine card lives at a public link. Paste it into a WhatsApp chat and the other person taps once, sees your card in their browser with your photo, links, and details, and saves you to their contacts. They need no app, no account, and no explanation, which is exactly what you want in the thirty seconds after someone says "send me your details". ## Beyond one-to-one chats The same link works everywhere WhatsApp reaches. Drop it in a group chat when you introduce yourself, post it to your Status so your network sees it passively, and pin it in communities where you answer questions. Because the link points at your live card, every copy of it ever sent stays current when your title or number changes. ## Capture cards without leaving WhatsApp The other half is what happens when someone hands you their details. Start a chat with the ConnectMachine WhatsApp Assistant, send it a photo of a business card, a paper note, or an event badge, and the AI reads it and creates or updates the contact in your app. You do not need to open ConnectMachine at all: message the snap from wherever you are, and the contact is waiting when processing completes. The WhatsApp Assistant is included on the free plan. ## Face to face, the QR takes over When the person is in front of you rather than in a chat, your QR code does the same job: they scan it with their camera and land on the same live card. Keep it on your lock screen or as a wallet pass, and WhatsApp-first contacts can still message you first and get the link in reply. ## Always the current version of you A phone number in a chat message goes stale the day it changes. Your card link does not, because it points at a live profile: edit your details once and every link you have ever sent, in every chat and group, shows the update. Nothing to resend, nothing to correct. ## Who it is for - Professionals whose clients live on WhatsApp - Anyone who networks in group chats and communities - Event-goers who collect paper cards and forget to type them up - Sales and field roles that share details many times a day - Teams working across markets where WhatsApp is the default channel ## How it works 1. Create your card in ConnectMachine on the free plan. 2. Copy your card link and send it in any WhatsApp chat. 3. The other person opens it in their browser and saves you in one tap. 4. When you receive a paper card, snap it and send the photo to the WhatsApp Assistant. 5. The contact appears in your app, ready for a note while the conversation is fresh. ## Frequently asked questions ### How do I share my digital business card on WhatsApp?
