How much does a paper business card really cost per year?
Counting initial printing (€100–200 for 500 cards), reprints for information changes (new position, phone number, email), and losses/damage, the real cost of paper cards for an active professional ranges between €150 and €400 per year.
How quickly does an NFC card pay for itself?
For a freelancer or active salesperson, the NFCard Starter at €49 pays for itself as soon as the first reprint is avoided, on average between 3 and 6 months depending on how often you update your information.
Does the calculator account for lost leads?
88% of paper business cards are thrown away within a week. The calculator estimates the cost of uncaptured leads by comparing the paper conversion rate (8%) to the NFC rate (45%). These figures are based on real studies and NFCard internal data.
Are the results guaranteed?
No. This calculator provides estimates based on industry averages. Your actual situation may vary depending on your activity, sector, and usage. The figures serve to illustrate the order of magnitude of potential savings.
