No subscription

Short answer

Yes, you can get an NFC business card without a subscription. A NearvoQ card is a one-time purchase ($19.99 for Basic, $29.99 for Custom) and everything it needs to keep working is on the free plan, with no time limit: the card's permanent link, your profile, changing where the card goes, the QR code and the last 7 days of Insights. NearvoQ Pro is optional, and if you ever stop it, your cards keep opening exactly where they did.

Updated

The question to ask isn't "is there a subscription?"

It's "what happens to the card if I don't pay monthly?" Smart cards have two parts: the physical card and the link it opens. The card is a one-off object. The link is a service someone has to keep running. Some sellers charge monthly for the service from day one; some offer a free tier with the important parts behind a paywall; some sell a card whose link is locked forever and simply never change.

Before you buy any smart card, check three things: does the card keep opening something useful if you never pay again, can you change where it goes on the free tier, and does your profile stay public on the free tier. On NearvoQ the answer to all three is yes.

What the optional plan is for

NearvoQ Pro is for owners who want more than the basics: up to 10 profiles, all 100 templates, Insights over 30 days and a year with a breakdown per card and per button, weekly reports, brand import from your website, and the option to hide NearvoQ branding on your profile. It costs $6.99 a month or $58.00 a year, starts with a 7-day free trial (card required), and renews automatically until you cancel.

If Pro ends, your account returns to Free. Cards keep working, your live profile stays live, and the extra history simply isn't shown. Nothing you printed becomes useless.

A free profile is a real profile

The free profile isn't a demo. It's the same page Pro owners have, with your photo and logo, a contact list, up to 24 buttons, your colors and fonts, and the floating Save contact and Share buttons. The free plan shows a small "Connected through NearvoQ" line at the bottom; Pro can hide it.

If all you need is one card that opens one good profile, you never need to pay again after buying the card.

When a one-time card is the right call

  • You're a solo owner or a small team with one main profile.
  • You mostly need contact sharing, reviews or a booking link.
  • You want the card to keep working without remembering another monthly charge.
  • You'd still like the option to switch the card's job later.
