TouchBase Business Cards have been designed to preserves the traditional look and feel of business cards, but add more features making the exchange of contact information more useful and more efficient using the technology already existing in your smartphone or other mobile devices.

TouchBase Business Cards use the capacitive touch capabilities of your smartphones touchscreen, which unlike NFC, is compatible with iPhones. The cards are embedded with conductive material that mimics finger touches when tapped onto the smartphone screen allowing for the instant and accurate download of information that can be stored in the cloud for easy access. Its creators explain a little more :
“This technology also gives us the opportunity to introduce other useful features. TouchBase Business Cards:
– Make it easier for others to connect with you: With one tap of your card, they can email you, call you, connect with you on LinkedIn, and follow you on Twitter. Next time they need to reach you, they know where to find you
– Share more information than ever before: People should not have to go on a wild goose chase to get the information they need. Upload brochures, videos, photos, and links and make it all accessible in one place.
– Update your information anytime: Whether you’ve changed companies or simply want to update your profile picture, your contacts will be notified with any changes.
– Track who has tapped your card: Use your business card as a CRM tool. Assess customer interest and track sales leads with tap data.”
