Compare digital business card and networking apps.
Most apps help you exchange a card. Fewer help you keep the relationship going. Here is how to compare them, and where Ryfa fits.

More than a digital business card
Most card apps stop at the exchange.
Ryfa is built for what comes after.
Sharing a card is step one. Referrals come from the second, fifth and twentieth conversation, so Ryfa keeps those conversations in the same app as your card.
The exchange
- Digital card with photo & links
- QR code & link sharing
- Save contact in one tap
- Wallet pass & NFC tap
Ryfa does all of this too.
