Two Y-Combinator-caliber products compared honestly.
Blinq is one of the most polished digital business card products on the market. Cardixn competes with a stronger luxury design system, deeper multilingual support and more generous free tier. Here's a fair comparison.
Blinq's templates are clean and modern. Cardixn goes further with 19+ luxury templates, per-card accent theming (the whole viewing experience adopts your brand color), and animated 3D previews. Both are excellent — Cardixn simply leans more premium.
Pricing
Blinq's paid plans start around $6/month. Cardixn's free tier includes unlimited cards, all templates, and analytics. You only pay for team management, NFC hardware or SSO.
Languages and global SEO
Blinq is strong in English-speaking markets. Cardixn ships with 20 languages, RTL, and localized SEO landing pages — a bigger advantage for global teams.
AI and OCR
Cardixn includes native AI bio generation, OCR paper-card scanning and layout suggestions. Blinq offers OCR; AI generation is more limited.

Yes. You can create, share and receive digital business cards on the free plan. Premium templates, analytics and NFC provisioning are available on paid tiers.
Do recipients need the Cardixn app?
No. Cards open in any modern browser via a public link or QR code. Recipients can save the vCard to their phone with one tap.
Can I edit my card after sharing?
Yes. Updates apply instantly. Anyone who scanned or saved your card always sees the latest information — no need to re-share.
Is my data secure?
Cardixn uses end-to-end encrypted storage, row-level security, and never sells your data. You control what is public and what stays private.
Does Cardixn work offline?
Cards are cached for offline viewing once opened, and QR codes can be downloaded as high-resolution PNGs to print on badges, packaging or business collateral.
