How to design a business card QR code and a business card QR code

Recently, the company needs to design a QR code for use in products.

Requirement proposal:

1. nameboard Design

2. You need to reserve three phone numbers for pre-sales consultation, sales, and technical support.

3. Do not use the term "phone" as far as possible. Otherwise, the three phone numbers cannot be differentiated.

4. Common data such as the website address and email address is required.

In order to meet the above requirements, Baidu found that each of the currently ranked items has an online QR code (to avoid advertising suspicion, do not mention the name here), although not bad, however, unlike what we want, it cannot provide multiple phone numbers with custom names.

Later I thought that since they could provide the information and don't know whether they can understand the encoding rules, I went into the wild and finally learned the following knowledge. I would like to share with you:

1. QRCode is a common QR code format.

2. QRCode contains three encoding rules: numeric, hybrid, and byte. The byte type does not distinguish between data types.

3. the business card QR code uses vCARD encoding rules. The format is similar

BEGIN: VCARD
VERSION: 3.0
N: name of a company
TEL; WORK: 12345667
EMAIL; WORK: abcd@abcd.com
ADR; WORK: A string of address information
URL: http://www.xxxxxx.com
END: VCARD

4vCARD main concepts.

Starting from BEGIN: VARD, ending from END: VARD

Contains VERSION information. The keyword is VERSION. VERSION 3.0 is the latest VERSION. More information about VERSION 2.1 is found.

N indicates the name of the business card.

TEL indicates the phone number, and WORK indicates the WORK or office use.

EMAIL indicates EMAIL

ADR address

URL indicates the URL
