NFC

Tap or scan. Same code.

Put the same dynamic code on an NFC tag, a card or a sticker. A tap and a scan reach one short link, so you change the destination once, and your analytics tell taps from scans.

  1. 01

    Pick a code

    Any dynamic code can be tapped. Its NFC address is its short link with a small mark that says the visit was a tap.

  2. 02

    Write the tag

    Write the address to a tag with any NFC writer app. Register the tag’s id to give it a label and to see its own taps.

  3. 03

    Re-point without rewriting

    Change where a code goes and every tag that carries its link follows. A tag written with another code’s link has to be rewritten, and we tell you which.

  4. 04

    Order pieces made for you

    Order NFC stickers, cards, key fobs and table stands, with or without your code printed on them. You see a quote before you pay, and the tags arrive registered to your workspace.

What you control

  • Taps are counted as their own source, next to QR scans and links.
  • Register up to 5,000 tag ids at once from a list.
  • Mark a tag lost or disabled, and re-use it for another code.
  • NTAG 213, 215, 216, 424 DNA and MIFARE Ultralight chips all work as plain tags; anti-cloning checks for 424 DNA are planned.
  • A shipping address is kept for 180 days after delivery or cancellation, then deleted.

What a tap records

A tap is recorded the way a scan is: the time, the approximate country, the device type, a visitor hash that changes daily, and the tag’s id if the chip sends one. No IP address is stored.

Questions.

Do visitors need an app?
No. Phones read NFC tags without one. To write a tag you can use any NFC writer app.
What does an NFC piece cost?
The price comes from a quote when you build the order, before you pay. It depends on the piece, the quantity and the printing.
Can I re-use a tag?
Yes. Point it at another of your codes. If the chip holds a different code’s link, it is rewritten first.
Is a tap a scan?
It counts as a visit to the code, with the source set to NFC so you can compare it with QR scans.
