COMPARE / POPL
Card vs. Popl
Popl is built for event lead capture, sold as a consumer app with a quote-only team plan. Card is built for the person building something — free at day 0 — and for the team that person ends up leading. Here's the honest difference.
| Popl | Card | |
|---|---|---|
| Free tier | — (consumer app) | Forever — 5 cards + 3 decks per workspace |
| App required | — | No — any browser |
| Decks | — | Yes, on Day 0 |
| Personal card survives joining a team | — | Yes |
| Meeting recording | — | Never |
We only list what we could verify on Popl's public pricing page on September 19, 2026.
A 5-person team, priced out
Popl: — (Quote-only — Popl publishes no self-serve team price; "unlimited users" requires a sales call)
Card Team: $15/mo ($12/mo billed annually) (5 × $3/seat, no minimum)
Who each one fits
Our read: Popl fits best if you're a team with a dedicated buyer for this kind of purchase, willing to book a sales call for a custom lead-capture rollout.
Card fits best if you're a founder, investor, or independent professional who wants a card that's free to start and grows into a company brand — without buying a sales-lead-capture tool you don't need yet.
Switching from Popl
There's no automatic import today — it's a short manual copy: recreate your name, title, company, links, and photo in Card's editor, then share your new link or QR going forward. Your Popl account isn't affected by switching — we have no access to it, and closing or keeping it is entirely up to you.
