Sustainable Bamboo - NFC Business card

Description

Our goal at Tap Tag is to limit the use of paper as much as possible. Our NFC Business Card is made from real bamboo, a sustainable resource that grows at an exponential rate. 

Each NFC business card has a re-programmable NFC chip inside of it, not visible from either side. Your name and/or logo will be laser-burnt into the real wood. 

Customers are able to access your information by simply tapping their smartphone to your card.

No more buying stacks of business cards. Instead, this innovative way to share your information will impress your friends and clients, and make a statement about your brand using innovative contactless technology. It fits beautifully in any wallet and can be used infinite times, no Tap Tag or app needed to scan tag

FAQ:

How fast does my item ship?

We will ship your NFC business card the next business day. Free shipping via USPS typically takes 5-7 days but could take up to 10 in rare circumstances. We offer upgraded shipping of 1-2 day and -2-3 day available at checkout. Shipped from New York.

I chose the "text only" option in quick personalization options, what font do you use?

We use a custom script-like font as seen in the first few pictures centered and engraved on the front of the card. If you would like a different font respond to the automated confirmation email immediately after purchase.

Where do you put my uploaded logo and the text if I choose to fill that box in quick personalization options?

This is human-run and is not automated. It's in our best interest to make it look awesome. We typically center the logo in the middle third of the card, if text is added we typically use Ariel font and put in bottom left corner like a traditional business card. If you would like a different format respond to the automated confirmation email immediately after purchase.

Using the advanced personalization NFC card editor, we will always make sure your logo and text look the best it can be. Sometime they may appear off center when editing, we will fix that as we have live people that review each purchase. 

Can we add color?

Short answer, no. This is authentic wood engraved via laser. This gives it an authentic look as your name/logo is literally precision-burned into the card.

What's on the back of the card?

Both sides of the card are identical. The NFC chip is completely hidden inside the card and scannable from 3 inches away from either side of the card. There is no Tap Tag branding on the card whatsoever

Can we engrave the back?

Yes, we can engrave the back side of the card if that option is selected above. 

Is there Tap Tag Branding?

There is no branding on the bamboo cards whatsoever. Just whatever YOU choose to put on it :)

Upload Tips

We will always make your final product look the best it can be. We have real human designers that handle all orders manually. We will make sure everything is centered and positioned nicely on the card. 

Personalizer Tools

Use our "Advanced Personalizer" button to see a live view of your card, add any image, add live text, change fonts and sizing, and more. If you have questions or concerns, email us Here.

The personalizer helps with positioning. We usually have to edit the image to something that will work with our engravers so the final product may look slightly different than the upload. 

You may use our "Quick Personalization" box to quickly upload an image and add text, our designers will center your image and center your text. 

What we do with your file

- Your image will be converted to a custom greyscale using 0% (White), 25%, 50, 75%, and 100% (Black). Regardless of how many colors your image may have we will make it work and more importantly make it look great. 

- Blacks in your image will engrave at full power (show full burn into the card), whites will remain as untouched bamboo. 

- Grays will be adjusted laser power. For example 50% gray equals roughly 50% power (50% burn which is not as dark)

- We will likely remove any backgrounds. However this is a per-scenario basis. For example, if your logo is on a green background we will remove the green and only engrave your logo. If your background contains any significance like stars speckled behind your logo, we will keep them. We will email you if we have questions, or you may leave additional comments in the appropriate section of the personalizer. 

- As far as positioning, we will follow the proof generated in the personalizer. We will adjust any thing that seems "off" like a font going off the edge of the card, or a logo that is slightly off-center. 

- Any major fixes or image issues we will contact you via text/email.  

- Do not upload any photographs of people or animals, photographs cannot be engraved. Stick to digitally made art, logo's, and images similar to those in our sample images.
