HiHello alternatives, compared
Four tiers on their page, two on ours, and an honest note on who each suits.
HiHello prints a free tier with several cards and paid tiers per person or per user. This site keeps one card free, charges less for the paid one, and puts the same details into your email signature and your call background.
The tier that suits one person
Most tier tables are drawn for companies, and the person buying for themselves reads down the columns wondering which row is for them. Both of these products have an answer for that reader, and they answer it differently.
Theirs gives a handful of cards on the free tier, which suits somebody keeping separate identities. Ours gives one card and puts the effort into what that single card can do once it exists.

HiHello compared with this site
Both products carry email signatures, and theirs are managed for a whole organisation on the upper tiers. If a hundred colleagues need one signature between them, their page is written for that and this note is not a grudging one.
The difference on ours is what hangs off the card: a pass in the phone's wallet, alerts when you are somewhere you set, a WhatsApp layer, and a virtual background carrying the same details. One card, more places.
Where HiHello is the better choice
Three places where their page is the better answer, said without hedging.
- Somebody who wants several separate cards on a free plan: their free tier names four of them, and ours is one.
- A company that wants its email signatures managed for the whole organisation from the same screen as its cards.
- A reader who prefers a yearly invoice with a single figure on it.
What the card feeds
The same details, in each of these places.
Features
Email signatures, call backgrounds, wallet passes and everything else the card feeds.
Features→Apple Wallet pass
Your card as a pass on an iPhone, beside their boarding passes.
Apple Wallet pass→Create your free card
Your own link, your details, and a QR code that opens it. Free to start.
Create your free card→Business card maker
Type your details, pick a design, download a print-ready file. No account and no watermark.
Business card maker→Questions about the two
How many cards do I get here?
One on the free plan, on your own address. A paid plan is about what that card does rather than how many of them you can hold at once.
Is the email signature included?
Yes. It is built from the same details as the card, so an edit reaches your signature and your card together rather than twice.
Can I keep my own address if I leave?
Your link is on this site, so it stays here. What travels with you is the file of your contacts and your details, both of which you can download.
Does this work on an iPhone and an Android phone?
Yes, on both. There is a pass for Apple Wallet and one for Google Wallet, and the card itself opens in any phone browser with nothing installed.
Try the free card first
It takes a couple of minutes and costs nothing, which is a cheaper way to decide than reading two tables.
