NFC Interactions

NFC Wearables for Smart Interactions

NFCKEY is a multi-purpose NFC wearable that can be configured for contactless NFC interactions, enabling users to trigger digital actions with a simple tap. As an NFC interaction wearable, NFCKEY can link to websites, apps, digital profiles, smart business cards or trigger automations, providing a fast and intuitive way to share information or launch actions. 

In this use case, NFCKEY acts as a tap-to-trigger NFC wearable, where the interaction logic is defined by the NFC content itself rather than by an external access or control system.
