What is different about Lets Connect business card printing?
A traditional printed business card normally carries fixed information such as your name, company, phone number, email address and website. Once those details are printed, changing them usually means printing another card or batch.
A Lets Connect card keeps the physical card simple and connects it to a digital profile. The recipient can tap the NFC area or scan the QR code to open your information in their phone browser.
This means the physical card can remain in use while supported profile content is edited online. For people who network regularly, that can be more practical than treating every change of role, phone number or URL as a reason to print again.
How much do NFC business cards cost for Bristol customers?
Current Lets Connect UK pricing starts at £20 for a PVC NFC business card. Wooden and metal cards are also available at higher one-off prices.
Every card includes the digital profile it opens, unlimited profile edits and dashboard access. There is no monthly fee for the standard card and profile. Optional upgrades and design services are priced separately.
- PVC NFC business card — from £20 one-off, for everyday networking and team use.
- Wooden NFC business card — from £50 one-off, for a natural, distinctive presentation.
- Metal NFC business card — from £100 one-off, for a premium executive presentation.
What is included with an NFC + QR business card?
Additional features such as advanced CRM tools, bookings, forms, business card scanning and exports depend on the profile package selected, so they are not automatically included with every physical card purchase.
- A physical NFC business card
- Tap-to-share NFC functionality
- A printed QR code
- An editable digital profile
- Unlimited profile updates
- Dashboard access
- Contact capture and profile analytics
- No Lets Connect app required for the recipient
How NFC business cards work
The recipient does not need to install the Lets Connect app simply to open your shared profile.
- Choose the physical card and design you want.
- Create or connect your Lets Connect digital profile.
- Your physical card is linked to the profile.
- At a meeting, the recipient holds an NFC-enabled phone near the card.
- The digital profile opens in the browser.
- The recipient can scan the printed QR code instead if preferred.
- You can update the profile later when your professional information changes.
Business cards for Bristol professionals
Bristol has a broad mix of founders, consultants, professional services, creative businesses, technology companies, sales teams and independent professionals. A reusable NFC card works well when the same person attends meetings and events throughout the year.
Founders can use one card across investor meetings, partnership discussions, accelerator sessions and networking events, pointing to the latest company website, LinkedIn profile or meeting link.
Consultants can keep their phone number, booking link and current service pages in one digital profile, updating it without redesigning the physical card. Designers, photographers and other creative professionals can link visitors to a portfolio instead of fitting multiple URLs onto the printed card.
Sales staff can use the card at prospect meetings, exhibitions and conferences. Depending on the selected profile plan, contact capture and CRM tools can support follow-up after the introduction.
Using business cards at Bristol meetings and events
The same NFC business card can be used throughout Bristol, whether you are meeting a client near Bristol Temple Meads, attending an event around the Harbourside, networking in Clifton, or visiting a conference venue elsewhere in the city.
Before an important meeting or event, check that your digital profile contains your current role, phone number, email address, website and preferred next action.
At the introduction, invite the recipient to tap the card. If they prefer scanning, the printed QR code offers another way to reach the same profile.
NFC cards compared with traditional printed cards
NFC cards and traditional printed cards solve slightly different needs. Paper cards can be useful when you need to distribute a large number of inexpensive cards and do not expect the printed details to change. NFC cards are more suited to repeated personal use.
There is no universal answer to which is cheaper. A large paper print run may have a lower unit price, while a reusable NFC card can reduce the need to reprint when personal details change. The right choice depends on how you actually use business cards.
- Contact details: fixed after printing on paper, shown through an editable profile with Lets Connect.
- Sharing: physical handover only, compared with NFC tap, QR scan and the physical card.
- Changing your phone number or role: usually a reprint, compared with a profile update.
- Website and social links: printed as text, compared with clickable links in the profile.
- Recipient app: not required with either option.
- Repeated use: paper cards are handed away, while one NFC card can be reused for repeated introductions.
Custom business cards for Bristol teams
Businesses can order cards for several employees while keeping the overall company identity consistent. Each team member can have their own profile with individual contact details, while the physical cards use shared branding such as a company logo and brand colours.
Custom design options may add to the base card price. If you are ordering for a team, compare the card material, design requirements and profile plan before deciding on the final configuration.

Do you print traditional paper business cards in Bristol?
Lets Connect specialises in connected NFC and QR business cards rather than positioning itself as a conventional local paper-printing shop in Bristol.
If your requirement is thousands of disposable paper cards printed locally, a traditional Bristol printer may be the better fit. If you want a reusable physical card linked to an editable digital profile, Lets Connect is designed for that use case.
Plastic, wooden or metal business cards?
The PVC card is the most affordable option and the closest to the familiar feel of a traditional plastic business card. Wooden cards provide a more distinctive natural appearance, while metal cards create a heavier premium presentation.
If you are specifically looking for plastic business cards in Bristol, the PVC NFC option is the most relevant Lets Connect product. It adds NFC and QR sharing to the physical card rather than functioning as a print-only plastic card.
What should you put on your digital business card profile?
Keep the digital profile focused on the information a new contact is most likely to need after meeting you. You can add more content when it genuinely supports the relationship, but avoid turning a quick networking profile into a second website.
- Your name and role
- Company name and logo
- Phone number
- Email address
- Company website
- Relevant portfolio, booking or service link
