Wallet passes & vCard

Add your card to Apple Wallet or Google Wallet, and save it to any phone as a vCard.

Kard makes your card portable. Beyond the link and QR code, every card offers a vCard
download and, where configured, Apple Wallet and Google Wallet passes — so your
details are always within reach. The wallet buttons live on your Share your card page
(under Share in the menu); a pass is something you keep on your own phone, so it isn't
shown on the public card other people see.

vCard (works on every phone)

The vCard download is a standards-based .vcf file (vCard 3.0). When someone taps it,
your name, role, company, phone, email, website, address and socials are saved straight
into their Contacts — iOS, Android or desktop. This always works and needs no setup.

Apple Wallet

The Add to Apple Wallet button generates a signed .pkpass you can keep in Apple
Wallet, ready to show with a swipe. The pass carries the Kard mark at the top, your photo,
and your accent colour — picked out in white or black so it stays legible on the colour you
chose.

Apple Wallet passes must be cryptographically signed with a certificate from Apple, which
requires a paid Apple Developer account. If your Kard instance hasn't configured signing
yet, the Apple Wallet button points to a short setup guide, and your card still offers
the vCard and Google Wallet. This is an administrator setup step, not something you need
to do per card.

Google Wallet

The Save to Google Wallet button adds a generic pass to Google Wallet via a signed save
link. If Google Wallet isn't configured on your instance, the button gracefully falls back
to the vCard download, so you're never left without a way to save your card.

Wallet passes and your trial

Wallet passes are part of the full-featured trial — they're available throughout it.
They only switch off if your subscription lapses and your card goes offline; reactivating
brings them straight back.
