xxxNFC and Its Applications
The abbreviation "NFC" (from the English term Near Field Communication) best describes its primary function: wireless data transmission over a distance of just a few centimeters. Due to this short range, the data is inherently almost "impossible to intercept by a third party." This makes NFC chips ideal for secure contactless payments, transferring personal data, or exchanging other internal information. The transmission requires only one active device (e.g., an NFC reader or an NFC-enabled smartphone) and a programmed NFC tag.
NFC chips can be embedded in labels, cards, keychains, wristbands, or other types of tags—limited only by your creativity and technical requirements. Programmed chips can be used for instant data retrieval or sharing, such as:
-
Processing micropayments in restaurants, stores, etc.
-
Exchanging or sharing contact details, including phone numbers and addresses.
-
Inputting web addresses and other specific links.
-
Controlling smart home devices.
-
Accessing inventory lists for tangible and intangible assets (e.g., equipment, linens).
-
Retrieving manufacturer contacts and product compositions.
-
Entering Wi-Fi passwords, etc.
We can produce customized NFC products tailored to your needs—either unprogrammed or pre-programmed for your intended purposes.
How NFC Works
Nearly every modern smartphone today has built-in NFC reading and writing capabilities. The function can be toggled on/off as needed (similar to Wi-Fi or Bluetooth). Once activated, simply bring your device close to or touch the NFC tag, then confirm the transaction, data transfer, or other action.
NFC vs. RFID
An NFC chip is essentially a modified or specially developed type of RFID chip operating at 13.56 MHz. Therefore, all additional information and technological possibilities for its applications can be found on our pages dedicated to:
