Excel2vCard will deal with the most common excel formats. If you have a csv-file, that’s fine too. You can optionally set the encoding in that case to make sure all characters are transferred correctly into the vCard.
Assigning columns
Which column maps to which vCard field? Excel2vCard lets you configure this by drag and drop – and even remembers it for next time.
Export to Outlook
As of version 3.0 the app supports exporting your data to Outlook directly. You can also pick an Outlook-category or create one on-the-fly. The app avoids creating duplicates by checking if a record with the same name already exist. It will update the found record, unless you tell it not to. Make sure Outlook is running before you start the export.
Export to Excel
Many users also simply use the app to work on their Excel documents, especially now that a powerful search-and-replace editor exists. You can now save the modified data back as an .xlsx-file.
Supports LinkedIn’s “connections.csv”
The app makes it easy to convert your LinkedIn contacts into vCards. Just download the connections.csv file from Your LinkedIn profile page (see here on how to do this), open it with the app, assign the columns and export the data into your preferred format – that’s it.
custom fields
Your file might contain data that you want to transfer to the vCard – but no matching field exists. The app allows you to create custom fields. You can tell the app to copy the contents (and the fieldname) to the notes field which makes sense if the software you want to feed the vCard to doesn’t deal with custom fields well.
Free version / licensed version
The free version of the app will export the first 10 rows of your Excel document. You can remove that limitation by purchasing a license from the Mac App store or from share-it if you are on Windows for currently around 10 USD/EUR (incl. VAT). Also, when you do the export you’ll be asked if you want to purchase a license and the app will lead to the appropriate site.
Languages
The app is available in english, german, spanish, japanese, french and simplified chinese. Make sure you turn subtitles on when you watch our intro video!
Free to try
Just go ahead and download the app. Play with it and see if you like it. If you have questions, please feel free to contact me (contact form below). You can purchase a license from within the app (there is a purchase button in the toolbar), no risk involved.
Prerequisites
Mac OS 10.10 or newer, with at least 500 Mb RAM. If you bought your Mac in the last 8 years, you’re probably good.

Client Testimonials
The nice people from Softpedia posted a review of the app (4 out of 5 stars) which we think is quite fair (although slightly outdated). They also verified that the software is 100% clean.
This new program is like coming out of the dark ages into the light. It is fast and easy to navigate. It will make it easier for people who didn’t think they could do this…
