  2. Update Your Details: Make sure your card is up-to-date and includes everything you want to share, such as your social media profiles, professional titles, or even a photo.

  3. Click the Share Icon: Once your card is ready, open the app and click on the Share icon to access your card's sharing options.

  4. Copy Your Unique URL: Select the option to copy your card’s unique URL. This is the link that recipients will click to access your full digital business card.

  5. Add the URL to Your Email Signature: Now, go to your email client (Outlook, Gmail, etc.) and open the signature settings. Paste your digital business card URL into your email signature, making it clickable so recipients can easily view your card.

  6. Bonus Step – Add a QR Code to Your Signature: For an extra touch, you can download your unique Wave QR code and insert it into your email signature. This gives recipients another quick way to access your digital business card—just by scanning the QR code.
