How to Create a Digital Business Card Using NFC Tags (Dec 2021)

[@thesynical939]

For anyone wondering, the id card printer he has in the video is the Evolis Badgy 200 ID Card Printer. It is a affordable option since the market is between $500-$1300 on average. This version is a healthy $200. Edit: this is for a rental version. Mainly for business keep in mind. The actual one is $500-$700.

[@baggottsbotsdigitalmarketi9524]

I think it was the 100 actually. It was the cheapest, base model ✅

[@langsenofficial]

I prefer the BLK CARDS app instead of NFC Tools to write URLs on my digital business cards. I find it simpler with way less steps and you can also save your URLs in a list, which is very useful and it's a free app too.

[@FranckBossi]

It's doesn't make vCard etc. tho

[@langsenofficial]

@@FranckBossi yes it does. You can create vCard

[@jillysflix9357]

Tha blk card app doesn’t seem to exist now

[@langsenofficial]

@@jillysflix9357 @jillysflix9357 ? Where did you get that from? It is incorrect, BLK CARDS exists, and it is one of the fastest growing NFC business cards providers in Asia and the App is in all app stores.

What program did you use to create the business card that included the video?

[@beatkultr]

Pretty sleek. Super easy and the video edits where pretty dope as well!!!

[@baggottsbotsdigitalmarketi9524]

Appreciate it!

[@javierantoniomartinezgutie3547]

Hey! Whats the model of the printer and where can I buy it ?

[@timothyteoh5338]

thanks for sharing. just curious... I noticed a lot of videos out there that needs to be online in order to be able to share a nfc business card.. is there one that can be done offline?

[@baggottsbotsdigitalmarketi9524]

Nfc doesn’t require internet connection, but most of the cooler functions do. You could tap the nfc and still provide your contact info for example.

[@gabealbuquerque1728]

Question, Can you set the NFC to notify you of a specific NFC that was scanned? - I work off referrals. I would love to be able to leave an NFC with one of my referral partners let their customers scan that NFC so they have my info, but also know which partner referred that customer

[@baggottsbotsdigitalmarketi9524]

Yes, but not necessarily with NFC Cards alone. But, kudos, that’s one of my favorite use cases in business operations. Our internet provider for example, could have nfc enabled stickers on the back of the devices. Upon starting/ending a job on site, tapping that nfc could automate many many useful things to track 😎

[@FranckBossi]

Yes you can do that, just need that NFC to be programmed with a unique URL that you pre-record in your dB knowing where it was placed. So you can know when and how many time someone read the NFC and openned its url

[@nicolebenaderet6641]

How do you know which printer to buy? If I don’t want to buy the one you specifically mentioned, what should I even look for? Which printer?

[@ryanbaggott6479]

PVC card printer/ badge printer should work

[@chadcolgrove4809]

Hello! I’ve seen on Reddit that some people have had problems with this printer printing on an NFC card. They say it leaves a mark where the chip is on the inside of the card. Have you ever had this problem?

[@OfficialChatbotBuilder]

Definitely not

[@chadcolgrove4809]

@@OfficialChatbotBuilder Hey so I went out and bought the printer! Sadly I am having this problem though where it has marks on the card and isn't printing well. Any suggestions? is there a way to adjust the printer so this doesn't happen?

[@OfficialChatbotBuilder]

@@chadcolgrove4809 oh man that sucks! I don’t know enough to give advice about the mechanics of the printer, but one thing worth trying is getting a different brand of cards. I found near perfect results with brand a versus unusable va brand b nfc cards

[@Ashot94]

Sorry , but when a client is opening my website and all the tools connected to my website with my NFC card, can he download or save all that information in her smartphone as an app so she can use it later any time she needs? Because when i bought a card before for 80€ , i could do it , and that is really cool and important. Otherwise the client will lose all the information several minutes after scanning my nfc card. Thank you

Which hosting site did you design your domain website

[@baggottsbotsdigitalmarketi9524]

[@sumeeraquel9336]

Does it work if other person’s phone does not have nfc application?

[@baggottsbotsdigitalmarketi9524]

If they don’t have a modern smartphone with NFC, the best back up is a QR code + standard info printed on the card

[@kyushirokun]

If the phone has a NFC chip (most modern phones do) they do not need to install any app to read the NFC tag. And yes as mentioned, qr is a good fallback for older phones

[@alejandrorendon1113]

Hello, thanks for the video, I have a question, can we write different tags or cards in the NFC tools app?

[@ryanbaggott6479]

Hey thanks for checking out the video. Yes you can write lots of different things on nfc tag stickers… cards… key rings, wrist bands… more NFC Tag options are hitting the market all of the time. And NFC Tools let’s you choose lots of options from a URL, to a text message, a contact file, and more

[@vc616]

I'm a bit confused. This process seemed to add the actions to the phone/app, similar to creating shortcuts. Does it work when other devices scan the NFC? How does that redirect happen?

[@baggottsbotsdigitalmarketi9524]

In this example, we are using a URL of a landing page we made inside the funnel builder to encode the nfc tag. You can use any URL you want to use when you encode your tags with the app, NFC Tools. When a device like a smartphone is powered on, and near the tag, the nfc reader that’s built-in the phone will detect the nfc tag and send a signal to alert the user that they can open the link associated with the tag. You can have as many links or buttons you want on the landing page. Hope this helps.

[@ryanbaggott6479]

Yes, unlike a personal shortcut that may only work on the device the shortcut was created with, nfc tags can work for all nfc devices. I think one day we will have “business shortcuts” but prob 3-5 years from now. But for our use cases, “tap to place a food order” or “tap to add your contact” are core business functions.

[@trapunlimited7610]

I so much love this video. Thank you so much. But i have a question…please, are all Nfc blank cards printable?

[@baggottsbotsdigitalmarketi9524]

Hey great question. I have found there are some blank nfc cards on Amazon designed for ink jet printers that have a special tray for printing on cards. I haven’t tried that route, and instead got the badge printer. The “inkjet” blank nfc cards DO NOT work with the printer I have (I found out the hard way haha).

[@Naturzone1]

Making the nfc is easy. How do you create your contact information that can be exported and would it be compatible to upload to both iPhone and android?

[@baggottsbotsdigitalmarketi9524]

It’s easier than you may think. The method we use is to upload the phone contact to Google Drive. We simply embed the vCard link to a button. Some people will call the vCard a VCF (Virtual Contact File)… but, any it’s just the file format all contacts are usually stored in. So, to answer your question, YES! This file format works for both Android and iOS. This is a great question and most people do not think about it. Thanks for watching!

[@FranckBossi]

you can create a vcard directly into the NFC using NFC tools

[@rajudave5923]

thanks for such a clear message thanks

[@DJMETRONYC]

Can I use those generic nfc cards to use with my dot cards instead of purchasing it through them

[@aishachinar8937]

It's only work ...if the other person has NFC installed on his phone???

[@baggottsbotsdigitalmarketi9524]

NFC will work perfectly on almost every smartphone natively at this point-starting with iPhone 6 i believe!

[@kyushirokun]

It is a hardware chip inside the phone, no application needs to be installed to read it. You only need the NFC tools app to write to the card

[@dutchberry]

I bought some nfc stickers on amazon. I linked my digital business card. Sticker is on my phone. I dont need a huge card. Just put the sticker on back of your cell phone

[@pratikmehtaau]

Thanks a lot

Glad you liked the video! -RB

[@SageEsports]

Where can i get color cards like plain cards but colors?

[@baggottsbotsdigitalmarketi9524]

White NFC cards and NFC black cards are common on Amazon - I would recommend getting the white NFC cards because in my experience they are nicer to print on. I haven’t really seen any other colors in bulk… but I’m sure there’s a supplier out there somewhere.

[@shamslivestrong7544]

Question, How do you send the your contact information along with the website? I didn’t see your contact information being loaded onto the card

[@i.theshuvo]

Hi, What is the name and model no. of this printer? can I get any link to buy it?

[@northeasttv8352]

So what site did you use to add all the info and images video etc to make the card look as nice as it does You mention we get cards off Amazon but didn’t show what to do with them After you printed the design you made in photoshop then what? How did you stick that to the blank card? So many unanswered questions

[@baggottsbotsdigitalmarketi9524]

1) that is called a “landing page”. You can use any tool you want; I used an app I own called Tap The Table. 2) I recommended you “buy your NFC cards from Amazon”. Use the search bar in the Amazon app and simply type NFC Cards and choose what you can afford. 3) In the video, you’ll see me print the design from my computer with the Badgy printer. The printer imprinted the design onto the card. Sorry you didn’t find the video helpful, luckily there are plenty of services that will allow you to buy a card nowadays.

Printing on PVC cards are more expensive than i think. Badgy 100 is selling for around 600$. Do you guys know any other method for printing design on PVC card then this one? Thank you in advance for the answer.

I was wondering where the “Scan your phone here” NFC stickers in the video can be sourced?

[@agency1000x]

did you find them?

[@ron6126]

I need to check into this process. There may be some security risk.

[@baggottsbotsdigitalmarketi9524]

Always a good idea to do your own research, for sure. The most simplistic way to look at an NFC Tag is to look at it almost exactly as you’d look at a QR Code. The only difference being you tap the NFC Tag and you “scan” the QR Code. If you find any good info about potential security risks feel free to let us know and I’ll share your tips on another video.
