With new technology being released constantly, it can get confusing to remember all the acronyms used – we have decided to shine a spotlight on NFC (near field communication) tech, as well as RFID (radio frequency identification), as there are many new and exciting products which incorporate them.
NFC technology is all around us in today’s world – most notably, paying contactless through Apple Pay or Google Pay. However, suppliers have started to incorporate it into ingenious technology for your business – for example, the Xoopar Mr Bio NFC.
NFC technology has been utilised to allow – with only a short scan with your mobile phone on the head of the item – an immediate opening to a webpage or contact details of your choice.
This quick and easy method of promoting your business doesn’t require a hard sell – the utility speaks for itself. In addition, branding is available on one side of the head, in full colour digital print.
Next is RFID – as technology is improving, so are the methods of those with malicious intent. As a result, cards and car keys are vulnerable to being ‘skimmed’ – using RFID reading devices, thieves can copy and steal your data without any physical contact.
Luckily, tech companies have recognised this, and consequently there are numerous anti-skimming devices on the market.
For example, this Signal Blocking Car Key Pouch stops your wireless car key information being stolen (which would allow your car to be unlocked and started without your key). Not only can this be branded with your business’s logo, but it is an excellent way to show your employees that you care about them and their safety. What better way to demonstrate this than potentially saving them from their car being stolen?
Not only this, but we offer a range of RFID secure wallets and card holders, which can be branded extensively, and come in a range of different colours and finishes. For example, the Pilot RFID secure card slider, which comes in solid black or silver, and can be branded vertically, on the strap on top, on the hole on the back, as well as the main body itself. Again, this is an exceptional way to show your employees that you care, while giving them a gift that is genuinely useful in their everyday lives.
We hope that this information has been useful in learning more about the technology that is increasingly being used in the industry, and for more information about any of the products, please contact our team at:
