Meishio vs CamCard Business

CamCard Business is INTSIG's card scanner for teams, with direct links to Salesforce, Dynamics, HubSpot, Zoho and Google Contacts and pricing on request. Meishio is a shared address book for small teams that reads English and Japanese cards and keeps Google Contacts current. If cards must go straight into a CRM, CamCard Business is the better fit.

Moving from CamCard Business to Meishio

  1. Export from CamCard Business

    CamCard Business's App Store listing says contacts can be saved as Excel files.

  2. Save as CSV

    Open the file in Excel or Google Sheets and save it as CSV. Meishio reads common column names such as First Name, Last Name, E-mail, Company, Title and Phone.

  3. Import and check

    Choose the CSV in Meishio. People you already have are matched, so you can merge them instead of adding them twice.

  4. Or start from Google Contacts

    If CamCard Business already syncs to your Google Contacts, connect Google Contacts to Meishio instead of moving a file.

Questions

Is CamCard available in India?

CamCard Business was not on the 2020 list and is available on the Indian App Store. In November 2020, India's Ministry of Electronics and IT blocked two other CamCard apps, "CamCard - Business Card Reader" and "CamCard - BCR (Western)", under Section 69A of the IT Act (PIB release, 24 Nov 2020). We have not checked whether the 2020 order has changed since; for a legal view, ask your own adviser. On 20 Oct 2026, CamCard Business by INTSIG PTE. LTD. was listed on the Indian App Store; the consumer CamCard app's Indian App Store page did not load.

How much does CamCard Business cost?

CamCard Business does not publish a price. Its pricing page is a request form with a 10-day business free trial.

Can I move my CamCard contacts to Meishio?

Yes. Save them from CamCard Business as an Excel file, save that as CSV, and import it into Meishio. Or, if they already sync to Google Contacts, connect Google Contacts.
