For exhibitors and event teams

Turn booth conversations into leads you can follow up

Busy exhibition days leave you with a pocket full of paper and a vague memory of who wanted what. With Cardly.ae, visitors tap your card, save your contact and share theirs — with consent — while the conversation is still fresh.

  • No app for visitors
  • Works on iPhone and Android
  • Leads with consent recorded

Every one of those conversations is a lead — if you capture it before the visitor walks to the next booth.

The challenge

What goes wrong at the booth

01

You run out of cards on day one

Print runs are guessed weeks in advance. Too few and you run out; too many and the rest go in the bin after the show.

02

Badge scans lack context

A scanned badge tells you who visited, not what they wanted. Notes scribbled on the back of cards are hard to read later.

03

Follow-up starts too late

By the time contacts are typed up after the show, the visitor has spoken to ten other exhibitors.

04

No proof the event paid off

Without numbers, it's hard to show which event, day or team member generated real conversations.

How Cardly.ae helps

Made for the booth

Tap, save, done

Visitors tap your NFC card or scan your QR code and save your contact to their phone in seconds — no app needed.

Lead form with consent

Visitors share their name, company, email or phone and a note. Consent is recorded with every lead.

Instant email alerts

Each new lead is emailed to the card owner, so a teammate can start the follow-up during the show.

See which days worked

Track views, taps and leads by day and by source (NFC, QR or link) to measure each event.

Arabic and English

International and local visitors read your card in their language, switched with one tap.

QR for banners and screens

Put your card's QR code on the booth backdrop, screens and brochures for visitors who prefer scanning.

Frequently asked questions

Does it work without Wi-Fi at the venue?

The visitor's phone needs mobile data or Wi-Fi to open your card, as with any website. UAE venues generally have strong mobile coverage; keep your QR code visible as a backup.

Do visitors need to install anything?

No. Tapping the NFC card or scanning the QR code opens your card in the phone's browser. Saving your contact uses the phone's built-in contacts app.

How fast can we get cards before an event?

Standard UAE delivery takes 2–4 working days (AED 20); express next-day delivery is available in Dubai, Sharjah and Abu Dhabi (AED 35). Orders over AED 199 ship free. Order early before big shows.

Can we use one card for the whole booth?

Yes. A company card on an NFC sticker works well on a counter. For follow-up, individual staff cards help visitors remember who they spoke to.

Is lead capture compliant with privacy rules?

Visitors must tick a consent box before submitting, and the consent is stored with the lead. Only collect what you need, and use it for the follow-up you promised.
