Which costs less?
For one person, both have a free card. For a team, Popl does not publish its price; Rillo Connect is free.
Is Rillo Connect a Popl alternative?
For a person or a small team that wants a free card whose contacts land in a CRM, yes. For badge scanning at trade shows across a sales team, Popl is built for that.
Do I need a separate CRM?
Not with Rillo Connect: everyone who scans lands in your Rillodex. Popl connects to the CRM you already use.
Prices and features checked on 14 October 2026, from Popl's own pages: Popl pricing: team plans quoted on request, its pricing FAQ; Popl digital business cards: the free plan for individuals, Pro and Pro+, AI enrichment. Prices change; if this looks stale, tell us. Every claim about Popl is from what it publishes, and nothing here says what it cannot do.
Which one are you?
One login, one record: the card you hand someone, the list at your counter and the accounts your reps carry are the same record.
