What Are NFC Cards?
NFC stands for Near Field Communication. NFC cards use short-range wireless communication, commonly at 13.56 MHz, to exchange information with compatible devices at close range. Depending on the selected chip and configuration, an NFC card can be used for digital business cards, links to websites
or contact details, product information and supported access applications. SyncWave Egypt offers customizable card solutions designed
to combine your organization’s branding with suitable contactless functionality.
Benefits of NFC Cards

Compatible smartphones can read supported NFC cards at close range.
Digital Business Cards
Direct users to a digital profile, contact page or website, depending on the programmed content.
Custom Design
Personalize suitable PVC cards with your logo, brand colors, and printed information.
Flexible Applications
Support suitable information-sharing or access applications when the card and system are compatible.

NFC Cards vs. MIFARE Cards
NFC describes a set of short-range communication capabilities, while MIFARE identifies a family of contactless IC products.
NFC-capable devices support some MIFARE products, but compatibility depends on the specific chip and application.
For digital business cards, select a chip that works with the intended phones and desired content. For door access,
confirm the reader’s supported credential technology rather than choosing by frequency alone.
