With VKARD, you can use your profile in a 100% digital version.

Three options are available to you:

## The Widget (iOS and Android)  
The widget is the fastest way to share your information. It requires the employee to have access to the dashboard, as well as a compatible smartphone with the VKARD application installed. The widget is available on both iOS and Android, providing quick access to the VKARD profile directly from the phone's home screen.

||| Note that giving access to the Dashboard to your collaborators is essential to enable contact exchanges. This does not necessarily give them the ability to edit their profile unless you grant them those rights. You can invite collaborators to join the Dashboard so they can install the Widget and collect their prospects without allowing them to edit their profile.

## The Shortcut (iOS and Android)  

Available on iOS and Android, it does not require any app installation or Dashboard access for your collaborators. The **shortcut** is an excellent alternative if you don’t want to install the VKARD app, if your collaborators are on Android, or if you do not want them to have a Dashboard account.

## The Wallet (Google and Apple)  

Available on iOS and Android, it does not require any app installation or Dashboard access for your collaborators. The **Wallet** is an alternative to the shortcut. It can also be installed offline. Note however, it features VKARD colors and the VKARD logo. It can be installed online (auto-updates) or offline (for use where network is weak but no updates).
