The exchange works. The follow-up doesn't.

Nobody has a problem giving out their details. You do it constantly — at viewings, site visits, the networking breakfast, on someone's doorstep. The problem starts seconds later, when that information goes somewhere you can't see and nothing happens.

Most paper cards are thrown away within days. Digital versions fix that and stop there: your details land on a web page, the tab gets closed, and you never learn whether they kept it, shared it or became a customer.

Three steps from meeting to pipeline

Most card apps stop once your details are shared. That's where D' Ark starts — no hardware, no app to install first, no forms.

01Upload

Bring your existing card

Add the front and back of your printed card, give every team member their own login, and you're live in minutes.

02Share

They scan, they save

A QR scan or tap saves your card to their D' Ark wallet — searchable, always current, never binned.

03Convert

The lead lands in your CRM

Name, contact details and context arrive in your Leads board. Assign it, move it to Customers, see what actually converted.

Same card, digital
Same card. Now live.
Brand fidelity

You spent years on that brand. Keep it.

Other platforms hand you a contact page with your logo dropped in the corner. D' Ark renders your actual card design, so people recognise you in their wallet the same way they recognise you across a table.

  • ✓Front and back artwork, exactly as printed
  • ✓Change a number once — every saved card updates instantly
  • ✓One card per team member, all managed centrally

The free consumer app

The person you met stays in touch, not in a drawer

Everyone else leaves your contact staring at a web page and a form. D' Ark gives them a free app with a real wallet — so your card is kept, searched and shared on, and you get a channel to them long after the event ends.

Offers and promotions

Stop phoning people to tell them you've got an offer on.

Everywhere else, the card exchange ends the relationship. Telling last year's customers about a spring deal means digging out numbers and making calls.

D' Ark gives you a list you never had to build. Publish an offer from your dashboard and it appears on your card in every wallet that holds it, with a notification for everyone who's opted in. No bought lists, no CSV imports, no cold numbers.

Write the offer, set the dates, publish. No campaign builder, no design work.

An audience that chose you

Not a bought list or a cold database. Every person on it saved your card deliberately.

Unique codes per customer, so you know which offer actually drove business.

They stay in control

Frequency caps and one-tap opt-out inside the app. Nobody gets spammed.

Where the other options stop

Paper loses the contact. Most digital card apps capture it and hand you a page. D' Ark carries the relationship all the way through.

No. D' Ark is software-first — a QR scan works everywhere, on any phone, with nothing to post out or replace. NFC is an option later, never a requirement.
