"见" means "to see" or "to meet" in a general sense. It can refer to the act of encountering someone or something visually. "见" is transitive. Example: "网上见！ (Wǎngshàng jiàn!) - "See you online!"

"见面" means "to meet" or "to have a face-to-face encounter" with someone. It specifically refers to the act of meeting someone in person. "见面" is intransitive. Example: "我们明天下午见面吧。" (Wǒmen míngtiān xiàwǔ jiànmiàn ba.) - "Let's meet at the tomorrow afternoon."
