You probably use NFC every single day. It’s what lets you tap your card at the train station, grab a quick coffee, or even unlock your front door. It works in the background, quietly making things more seamless and convenient.
But what if this same technology could do more than that? What if it could turn your branded merchandise into an experience?
At Everything Branded, we’re bringing NFC (Near Field Communication) technology to promotional products, giving brands a new way to connect, engage, and impress. Whether you’re promoting your business at events, running a campaign, or sending out gifts, NFC takes your merchandise from ordinary to unforgettable.
NFC stands for Near Field Communication. It’s the same contactless technology used in tap-to-pay cards and digital door access systems. When an NFC chip is tapped by a compatible smartphone, it instantly triggers a digital action, such as opening a webpage, playing a video, or launching an app.
There’s no need for scanning QR codes or downloading special apps. Just a simple tap, and your branded product becomes interactive.
This is where things get interesting. NFC can be embedded into a wide range of promotional items without affecting their design or usability. Imagine these possibilities:
These are just a few examples of how NFC can bring your products, and your message, to life. Instead of handing out static items, you’re creating moments of engagement that stick with your audience.
Branded merchandise has always been a great way to boost visibility and leave a lasting impression. Adding NFC technology gives it another level of functionality and relevance. Here’s why it works so well:
Whether you are promoting a new service, collecting leads at an exhibition, or sending out client gifts, NFC products help you connect directly and instantly.
NFC-enabled promotional items work across all kinds of industries and occasions. Here are some ideal scenarios:
Wherever you want to create a memorable touchpoint, NFC products offer a smart solution.
From the user’s point of view, interacting with an NFC product is incredibly easy. There is no learning curve. Just tap, and go. On your end, the setup is also simple. We help you choose the right product and programme the chip to carry out the exact action you want, whether that’s linking to a landing page, video, contact form or social feed.
You can even track engagement, giving you a better idea of how your promotional items are performing.
At Everything Branded, we believe in combining quality merchandise with forward-thinking features. NFC-enabled products are a brilliant way to stand out in today’s crowded marketing landscape. They look good, feel good, and do something clever the moment someone interacts with them.
It’s not just about handing something out. It’s about making your brand part of the moment.
