Yes if you want more than a digital business card. Whooshly includes a hosted card with a .vcf download and QR, like Blinq, plus branded short links, dynamic QR codes, and a UTM builder, for a one-time $49 payment instead of Blinq's per-user monthly fee.

Does Whooshly's digital card work without an app?

Yes. Your card is a hosted page at a short link with a one-tap .vcf save and a scannable QR, no app to install for you or the person receiving it.

Is Whooshly cheaper than Blinq?

For an individual, a one-time $49 payment is typically cheaper than Blinq within the first year, and there's no recurring per-seat charge after that.
