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 is love!

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.

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.

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.

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!

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

With Popl, you only get the ability to contactlessly share your digital business card as an Apple Wallet pass and not as a Google Wallet pass.

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

According to the information on Popl’s website, the solution is GDPR and SOC 2 Type I compliant.

On the other hand, Beaconstac goes a step ahead to ensure your employee data is completely safe. This safety is possible through best-in-class security measures that include GDPR and SOC2 Type II compliance, SSO login, data encryption, multi-factor authentication, URL-based phishing detection, and more.

When you choose Popl, you must download their app to utilize all their features—for instance, contactlessly sharing your digital business cards.

But with Beaconstac, you do not need to download an app to use any of our features—right from creation, management, and distribution to tracking of your digital business cards.
