AurCard vs ScaanMe
A digital identity and business card platform from Jordan, Arabic-first, serving the Gulf.
ScaanMe is the closest Arabic competitor: an all-in-one digital card platform with a WhatsApp store, a QR menu, booking and wallet, working in Arabic. The difference is the starting point: ScaanMe builds around the person and their card; AurCard builds around the business — its page, branches, employees and customers. This comparison is from ScaanMe’s public website on the date below.

Side by side
| Aspect | AurCard | ScaanMe |
|---|---|---|
| What it sells | AurCard:The business: the company page that is its website, digital business cards for its employees, and WhatsApp from its number. | ScaanMe:An all-in-one “digital identity” platform: card, WhatsApp store, QR menu, booking, wallet, event capture, CRM. |
| A company page that works as its website | AurCard:Yes — the company page is a full website edited on the page itself, with sections shaped by the activity (menu, services, gallery, hours, branches). | ScaanMe:Pages and menus around the card; we did not find a company page edited on the page itself documented. |
| Employee cards in the company identity | AurCard:Yes — a card per employee in the company identity, updated with the company page; employee edits are approved, and the card stops the day they leave. | ScaanMe:Cards for individuals and teams. |
| WhatsApp from the company’s number | AurCard:Yes — campaigns to people who consented, a shared inbox and an after-hours auto-reply, from the company’s own number (on every plan). | ScaanMe:A WhatsApp store; we did not find campaigns from the company’s number with a per-company consent record documented. |
| Booking from the page | AurCard:Yes — appointment booking from the company page. | ScaanMe:Yes. |
| CRM integrations | AurCard:No direct connection to external CRM systems today; the customer ledger itself is the record. | ScaanMe:Yes — a CRM within the platform. |
| Arabic and right-to-left | AurCard:Arabic-first with a right-to-left interface; the page opens in the visitor’s phone language. | ScaanMe:Arabic-first. |
| Currency, payment and invoice | AurCard:In Saudi riyals including VAT in Saudi Arabia, and in US dollars outside it, with mada, Apple Pay and credit cards through a Saudi gateway, and an invoice after every payment. | ScaanMe:In US dollars. |
| Pricing model | AurCard:A subscription per business, not per user, with seats included. Every plan is paid, with a 14-day money-back guarantee. | ScaanMe:A no-cost “Lite” tier and paid plans; you bring your own NFC card. |
Where ScaanMe is stronger
- Breadth of tools for the individual: an AI card builder, event capture and a CRM inside the platform.
- A no-cost “Lite” tier to start with.
- A wide content and search presence in the Gulf — articles and sector guides published in Arabic and English.
Where AurCard is different
- The business first: branches, departments and subsidiary brands, employee cards with a locked identity, approved edits and a stop on the day they leave.
- WhatsApp from the company’s own number, only to those who agreed, with a consent record per company.
- In riyals incl. VAT in Saudi Arabia and in US dollars outside it, mada, Apple Pay and credit cards through a Saudi gateway, and an invoice after every payment.
- The company page is its website, edited on the page itself with sections shaped by the activity.
Which one fits you?
Choose ScaanMe if you are an individual or freelancer who wants the widest set of personal card tools and to start on a no-cost tier.
Choose AurCard if you are a business in Saudi Arabia with a team or branches, and want every customer to stay with the company and be messaged from its number — in riyals, with an invoice.
