You meet someone. You want to swap details. Instead of spelling out your handle, hold out your keychain. NFCtree puts your card on a small NFC chip: a name, a short line, and your links. They tap it with their phone, your card opens, and they can save you to their contacts. No app needed on their end. FOR YOU, OR FOR AN EVENT Your card can be a person or an event. Use a name or an event title, and a short line like the date and place. A school fundraiser, a market table, a pop-up: one chip on the table, one tap. GET PAID IN PERSON Add Venmo and Zelle next to your other links. People tap your chip, then pay you. Venmo opens your page. Zelle shows your name and email, and one tap copies the address, so they can pay from their bank app. NFCtree only holds the links. It never touches the money. SET IT UP IN THREE STEPS • You: a name or event title, and a short line • Your links: Instagram, LinkedIn, TikTok, X, YouTube, Venmo, Zelle, your website and more • Save to chip: hold your iPhone to the chip PUT YOUR LINKS IN ORDER Press and hold a link, then drag it where you want it. WE CHECK THE CHIP Before saving, NFCtree reads the chip so you know how much room it has. Afterward it checks what it wrote. If your card won't fit, you'll know before you start. KNOW WHEN IT'S OUT OF DATE Changed a link since your last save? My Card tells you, so the chip never sends people somewhere old. NO ACCOUNT. NO SERVER. Your card lives in the link on the chip. Nothing is stored on our side, and there's nothing to sign up for. WORKS WITH COMMON CHIPS Stickers, keychains, cards and phone-case tags. NTAG213, NTAG215 (the usual one) and NTAG216. Needs an iPhone with NFC (iPhone 7 or later) to save a card to a chip.
