An NFC (Near Field Communication) business card operates by leveraging the capabilities of NFC technology, which enables short-range wireless communication between devices. Embedded within the business card is a small NFC chip that stores digital information, such as contact details, a website link, or other relevant information. When the NFC-enabled business card comes into close proximity with an NFC-enabled device, typically a smartphone or tablet, the two devices establish a connection by creating a radio frequency link. This connection allows the seamless transfer of data from the business card to the device, providing instant access to the stored information.

Users can simply tap their NFC-enabled device against the business card to access the embedded content, eliminating the need for traditional printed business cards and facilitating quick and efficient information exchange in a digital format. NFC business cards are gaining popularity for their convenience, environmental sustainability, and the ability to enhance networking experiences in a technologically advanced manner.

If a mobile device lacks NFC (Near Field Communication) capability, it can connect using the QR code feature.
