eCardify vs HiHello (2026 Comparison)

Both are solid. eCardify is free unlimited; HiHello has polished templates. Pick by your priorities.

The quick verdict

If you want unlimited cards, Apple Wallet support, and no monthly cost, choose eCardify. If you want the most polished templates and built-in CRM integrations and don't mind paying $8-$20/month, HiHello is a good choice.

Both are well-built apps from real companies. This isn't a budget-vs-quality comparison — it's a feature-set difference.

Pricing — eCardify wins on free tier

eCardify: Free tier supports unlimited cards, custom branding, Apple Wallet, Google Wallet, public profile, QR generation. Premium is a one-time purchase for advanced features.

HiHello: Free tier is 1 card with HiHello branding. To remove branding and add a second card requires Premium ($8/month). Business tier ($20/month) adds CRM integrations and team management.

Templates and design

HiHello wins on template variety — about 30 ready-made designs vs eCardify's 10. If you want "professional out of the box" without picking colors yourself, HiHello's templates feel more polished.

Both support custom colors, fonts, and logos. Both let you preview before sharing.

Apple Wallet + sharing

Apple Wallet pass generation: eCardify includes it on the free tier. HiHello requires Premium ($8/month).

Google Wallet: same story — eCardify includes it free, HiHello gates behind Premium.

QR codes, short URLs, vCard downloads: both apps include on free tier.

Lead capture and CRM

HiHello wins here. Business tier ($20/month) integrates with Salesforce, HubSpot, Mailchimp, Zapier, and offers structured lead capture forms.

eCardify focuses on individuals and small teams — no native CRM integration, but lead capture is on the roadmap. If your job depends on capturing leads in a structured pipeline, HiHello Business is worth the price.

Privacy

eCardify is built privacy-first — no third-party tracking, no advertising IDs, optional public profile.

HiHello uses standard product analytics (Segment, Mixpanel). They don't sell data, but their app has more tracking SDKs than eCardify by a factor of ~5.

FAQ

Is HiHello really worth $8/month vs eCardify free?

Can I export my contacts from HiHello to switch to eCardify?

Yes. HiHello supports vCard export of your saved leads — open the HiHello app, go to Contacts, export as CSV or vCard. Import into eCardify or another tool. You won't lose lead history.

Which has better lead-capture forms?

HiHello Business tier wins — it offers customizable structured forms ("how did we meet?", "what's your interest?") and pipes them to your CRM. eCardify's lead-capture is simpler — just a one-tap save with optional message.

Do both apps work on Android?
