- Answers in ArabicYesNo
- Published priceYesYes
bl1nk Pro: $5 a person a month, billed yearly, card included.
Pick Wave if you want to share your own details in as many ways as possible and handle follow-up yourself. Pick bl1nk if you want the profile to talk to people for you, the card in the price, and support in Arabic on WhatsApp.
- An AI assistant on the profile answers and asks for the visitor’s details. Wave has no assistant.
- Same $5 a person a month, but bl1nk includes a PVC or bamboo NFC card.
- No 3-seat minimum: Pro starts at one person.
- Follow-ups drafted for WhatsApp or email on Pro.
When Wave is the better pick
Wave is mature and well designed, with years on the market and many sharing options (widgets, email signatures, backgrounds). If sharing your own profile is the whole job, it does it well.

Where Wave is strong

- Mature app with many sharing methods
- Teams plan at $5 per user a month
Where it falls short
- Teams plan needs at least 3 seats
- No AI assistant, lead scoring or drafted follow-up
- Capture features are lighter than lead-focused tools
How much does the Wave digital business card cost?
As of August 2026, Wave has a free personal plan, Pro at $7 a month, Teams at $5 per user a month with a minimum of 3 seats, and custom Enterprise. bl1nk is free for one person, and Pro is $5 a person a month, billed yearly ($60) with a PVC or bamboo NFC card included (metal $40 more), dropping to $4.50 from 10 people and $4 from 25.
What does bl1nk do that Wave does not?
bl1nk puts an AI assistant on the profile that answers visitors in Arabic or English and asks for their details. On Pro each lead is enriched and scored, the follow-up is drafted, and the NFC card is included.
Wave or bl1nk for a small team?
If the team’s job is sharing consistent, branded cards, Wave does it well. If the team’s job is turning taps into conversations, bl1nk’s assistant and drafted follow-ups do work Wave leaves to you, at the same $5 a person and with the card included.
