Create your free card

Your business card in Google Wallet, next to your boarding passes

Keep your Linq card as a Google Wallet pass on your Android phone and show its QR code in two taps. People scan it, save your contact and send theirs back. Free, and it updates whenever your card does.

Why keep your card in Google Wallet

Your phone is where your card lives when you meet someone. But finding it still means unlocking, opening an app or a browser, and scrolling to the QR code while the other person waits. A Wallet pass is two taps from the lock screen, in the place you already keep your boarding passes and loyalty cards, and it shows your QR code full size.

The pass is your digital business card in Wallet's format, so it carries the same promise: they scan, they save you, and Linq asks them to send their details back.

What's on the pass

  • Your name, job title and company, with your photo (or the Linq logo) and your card color.
  • A QR code that opens your card. The person you're talking to scans it with their camera and sees your card in their browser. They don't need Google Wallet, or any app.
  • Your email, phone, website and card link in the pass details, one tap away.

How to add your card to Google Wallet

  1. Create your free card and make sure it's live.
  2. Open the Share kit and stay on the QR code tab.
  3. Select Add to Google Wallet, then save the pass on Google's page.

On an Android phone, the pass opens straight in the Wallet app. On a computer, it's saved to the Google account you choose and shows up in Wallet on your phone. Details in the Share kit.

It never goes out of date

A pass is only useful if it's right. So once your card is in Google Wallet, Linq keeps it in step:

  • Edit your card, change your photo or switch to a custom card link, and the pass updates on its own. There's nothing to add again.
  • Take your card offline or remove it, and the pass shows as expired, so nobody scans a card that no longer works. Publish it again and the pass comes back.
  • Team cards work too. When your team updates its brand, the pass follows.

On an iPhone?

Google Wallet is for Android phones, and Apple Wallet passes aren't available. On an iPhone, the Share kit's lock screen wallpaper does the same job: your QR code sits below the clock, so people can scan your card without you unlocking your phone. Save the image to Photos, set it as your lock screen, done.

Questions, answered

More in the documentation, or get in touch.

Is the Google Wallet pass free?

Yes, on every plan. Add it from the Share kit once your card is live.

Does the person I meet need Google Wallet?

No. They scan the QR code on your pass with their phone's camera, and your card opens in their browser, on iPhone or Android. They don't need Wallet, Linq or any app.

Does it work on iPhone?

Google Wallet is for Android phones, and Apple Wallet passes aren't available. On an iPhone, the Share kit's lock screen wallpaper puts your QR code under the clock instead, so your card is one glance away without unlocking the phone.

What happens when I edit my card?

The pass updates on its own: a new photo, a new job title, a custom card link, all of it. There's nothing to add again. The QR code opens your card's link, which never changes.

What if I take my card offline?

The pass shows as expired, so nobody scans a card that no longer works. Publish the card again and the pass comes back.

Can I add my team card to Google Wallet?

Yes. Add it the same way from your team card's Share kit. When the team's brand changes, the pass follows.

Can I see how many people scanned my pass?

Scans of the pass's QR code have their own line in Insights, as “Google Wallet”. The breakdown by source comes with Pro, for the last 90 days; on Free you see your total card views and new contacts.

I added the pass on my computer. Where is it?

It's saved to the Google account you chose on Google's page, and shows up in the Wallet app on the Android phone signed in to that account.

Two taps to your card, wherever you are.

Create your free card, publish it, and add it to Google Wallet from the Share kit. Free on every plan.
