Trusted by businesses you

Don’t just take our word—hear what customers are saying.

Beaconstac has made it easy to promote my business with branded QR codes. They’ve been super helpful and responsive with customer service. Thank you Beaconstac for making my promotions even better!

Jody Royee Consulting

We love that we don’t need to have lots of business cards that we hand out that never get used!

Carmella Swanson

We use Beaconstac for all our business cards so that our contacts can easily add our information. We use these to demo our product during live calls and invite people to schedule a demo via our website. We plan on leveraging Beaconstac soon for print mailers that we will be dropping. Our goal is to make it as easy as possible for prospects to find us, schedule demos, as well as very quickly show how easy our product is deployed from the field.

Beaconstac helps increase our company’s Google Reviews. We have integrated a QR code into all of our employee's business cards that prompt our audience to write a Google review. This allows our customers to quickly drop a review and also have our associate's contact information on the same card.

Wade Passey

I have put Beaconstac’s QR codes on staff business cards that link to promo codes that tie to an employee referral bonus which drives sales and morale.

Mike Maginness

Digital business cards are by far the greatest use of Beaconstac for me. People like to scan them and have contact information downloaded in an instant. Other uses include individual product information, website links, and social media links.

Ross Koda

My entire executive leadership team is having me create contact card QR codes for them—they love it so much! Great product, great service, great value, highly recommend!

Philip Starkey

I used Beaconstac to create business cards that directly add my contact info to the scanner's contact book. Folks love it. Scan the code and you do not need to take a card with you as well. Impressed with/love the tech behind it.

Frequently asked questions

According to the information on Blinq’s website, the security measures are rather basic—they only protect your digital business cards through Google Cloud. There is no additional information available about Blinq’s security standards.

On the other hand, Beaconstac’s best-in-class security measures ensure your employee data is completely safe. These measures include GDPR and SOC2 Type II compliance, SSO login, data encryption, multi-factor authentication, and URL-based phishing detection.

When you choose Blinq, you and your recipient must download their app to contactlessly share and save digital business cards.

However, Beaconstac lets you easily create and share your digital business cards—as Apple/Google Wallet passes and QR Codes—without the hassle of downloading an app for you and the recipient.

With Blinq, you do not get the ability to track your digital business card’s scan performance.

Whereas, with Beaconstac, you can track the following data to stay on top of your team’s performance:

The total number of card scans received.
The total number of unique clients reached via your cards.
The best- and worst-performing cards (per scan count), i.e., individuals with the maximum and minimum scans for their digital business cards.
Card scans by location, time of day, and devices used—to determine when and where your team members are meeting with new prospects.

When you create a digital business card with Blinq, your card-sharing options are limited to QR Codes and email signatures.

But with Beaconstac, you can share your digital business card via your Apple/Google Wallet, QR Codes, Apple Siri, email signatures, and social media. As a result, you get more convenient and contactless card-sharing options with Beaconstac’s digital business card solution.
