Capture vCard QR Contacts Into KlickTipp

Source reviewed Updated 2026-07-07

Scan a business card QR code and automatically add the contact to KlickTipp with Double Opt-In.

What it does

Scan a vCard QR code to instantly add the contact to your KlickTipp list with Double Opt-In enabled. This process automatically captures names, emails, and phone numbers from the scan and updates your subscriber database in real time.

Step by step

  1. Configure an n8n webhook node to accept POST requests from AllCodeRelay.
  2. Set up a code node with JavaScript logic to parse standard vCard (VCARD) text blocks into key-value pairs.
  3. Create a KlickTipp API action node configured for the 'Add Contact' endpoint with Double Opt-In enabled.

Where the LLM does the work

  • Generate robust regex patterns or parsing logic to handle variations in vCard field ordering and line breaks.
  • Draft error handling code that gracefully manages malformed QR data without crashing the workflow.
  • Write the specific HTTP request payload structure required by the KlickTipp API for contact creation.

Watch out for

vCard fields often contain special characters that break JSON parsing, so sanitize all string inputs before sending to n8n.
Double Opt-In sends an email immediately upon creation, ensure your sender domain has proper SPF/DKIM records set up.

Capture vCard QR Contacts Into KlickTipp: Scan a business card QR code and automatically add the contact to KlickTipp with Double Opt-In.

## Specification
- What it does: Scan a vCard QR code to instantly add the contact to your KlickTipp list with Double Opt-In enabled. This process automatically captures names, emails, and phone numbers from the scan and updates your subscriber database in real time.
- Trigger: Triggered by an event (Event · on scan webhook)
- Autonomy: Fully hands-off
- Expected setup effort: about an afternoon
- Tools/services involved:

## Known pitfalls, handle each one explicitly in your implementation
1. vCard fields often contain special characters that break JSON parsing, so sanitize all string inputs before sending to n8n.
2. Double Opt-In sends an email immediately upon creation, ensure your sender domain has proper SPF/DKIM records set up.

## Reference implementation
https://n8n.io/workflows/13621 (workflow template)
Fetch and inspect this before building. If it matches my stack, adapt it;
if not, rebuild the pattern with my tools.

## Process requirements
1. Before building: ask me which of the listed tools I actually use and
   what my platform is (n8n / Make / code / other). Do not assume.
2. Adapt the pattern to my answers; do not force the reference stack.
3. Address every pitfall above; tell me how you handled each.
4. Provide a test plan I can run before letting this touch real data.
5. Ask before any step that sends messages, modifies data, or spends money.

Frequently asked questions

Can I use a different Email than KlickTipp?

Yes. KlickTipp is only the example email in this recipe. The same flow works with Brevo, Gmail, Lemlist and Mailchimp. Swap the email connection and keep the rest of the setup as written.
