The short answer
Choose Blinq if you need enforced single sign-on and SCIM provisioning, if your security review requires SOC 2 Type II, if you want native CRM integrations out of the box, and if a per-user monthly fee is acceptable.
Choose Cardify if your team works in Arabic and English, if you want every employee carded without a per-seat bill or a seat minimum, and if you want printed cards fulfilled in Oman as part of the same system.
Price, and the shape of it
Blinq publishes its pricing clearly, which is to their credit. Read from their pricing page on 20 August 2026:
- Free, $0, "Free forever", limited to two digital business cards
- Premium for individuals, $9.99 per month billed monthly, or $7.33 per month billed annually
- Business for teams, $6.99 per user per month billed monthly, or $4.99 per user per month billed annually
- Enterprise, custom pricing, tailored terms
Two details from Blinq's own FAQ are worth knowing before you budget. First: "A minimum payment equal to 5 Team Cards is required for all Blinq Business subscriptions regardless of billing cycle." Second: "Rather than a flat rate fee, Blinq Business charges you per card, per month for any Team Cards created in your account."
That is a perfectly reasonable model. It is simply a different model from Cardify's, and the difference compounds with headcount. On Cardify, the web platform is free for unlimited employees. Carding forty people and carding four hundred cost the same thing, which is nothing. There is no seat minimum, no per-card monthly charge, and no renewal.
We are deliberately not converting Blinq's dollar prices into rials here. That would publish an exchange rate as though it were a fact about their pricing. Compare the structures: per user per month, against nothing per user.

Where Blinq is genuinely stronger
- Enterprise identity. Blinq advertises enforced SSO and SCIM user provisioning on Enterprise. Cardify has neither. For a company that provisions every application through Okta or Entra, this is decisive.
- SOC 2 Type II and GDPR compliance, advertised on Enterprise. Cardify holds no SOC 2 report.
- Native CRM integrations on Business. Cardify has no native connectors.
- Lead capture depth. Blinq's Business tier advertises Universal Lead Capture, event campaigns and attribution, custom qualifiers and lead forms. Cardify's lead capture is basic by comparison.
- Contact scanning and AI features. Blinq advertises a universal contact scanner, an AI notetaker and AI contact enrichment. Cardify has a free iOS card scanner but no notetaker and no enrichment.
- A mature individual tier. If you are one person rather than a company, Blinq Premium is a well-shaped product and Cardify is not really aimed at you.
Where Cardify is stronger
- Arabic and English as one card. Real Arabic fields, correct right-to-left rendering, both spellings in the saved contact.
- No per-seat economics at all. No seat minimum, no per-card monthly charge, no headcount conversation at renewal, because there is no renewal.
- An unlimited free tier rather than a two-card one. Blinq's free plan is designed for an individual. Cardify's free platform is designed for a company.
- Print and digital in one system, fulfilled by verified Omani print shops, dispatched within one working day and delivered across Oman in two to four working days.
- Built and hosted in Oman, which is a different answer to a data-residency question than a platform headquartered elsewhere can give.

Frequently asked questions
How much does Blinq cost?
On Blinq's pricing page on 20 August 2026: Free at $0 forever, Premium for individuals at $9.99 per month billed monthly or $7.33 per month billed annually, Business for teams at $6.99 per user per month billed monthly or $4.99 per user per month billed annually, and Enterprise at custom pricing. Blinq's own FAQ adds that a minimum payment equal to five Team Cards is required for all Business subscriptions regardless of billing cycle.
How much does Cardify cost?
The Cardify web platform is free with no employee limit, no template limit and no card limit, and no credit card is required. You pay only for physical cards: OMR 5.000 per 100 Standard, OMR 6.000 per 100 Premium, OMR 15.000 per 100 Luxury, and OMR 10.000 per NFC tap card.
What does Blinq's free plan include?
Blinq's free plan lists two free digital business cards, unlimited sharing, unlimited contact creation, QR code, widget, email and SMS sharing, the ability to add cards to Google or Apple Wallet, a personal email signature and virtual backgrounds. The two-card limit is the constraint that matters for a company: it is a plan for an individual, not a team.
Is Blinq better than Cardify for anything?
Yes. Blinq advertises enforced single sign-on, SCIM user provisioning, native CRM integrations, an AI notetaker, a universal contact scanner and SOC 2 Type II compliance. Cardify has none of those. If your company provisions software through an identity provider or your security review requires a SOC 2 report, Blinq clears a bar Cardify does not.
Which is better for an Arabic-speaking team?
Judge Cardify on what it does. Every Cardify employee card carries an Arabic version and an English version under one URL and one QR code. The Arabic name and job title are separate fields entered by the employee rather than transliterated by software, the card renders right-to-left rather than mirroring the English layout, and the saved contact carries both spellings. We have not tested how Blinq renders an Arabic card, so ask them to show you one, and ask us the same. We will send you a live card.
