NFC Business Cards — Frequently Asked Questions
Everything about how Metacard NFC cards work — compatibility, customization, pricing, certification and B2B.
What is an NFC business card?
A card with an NFC chip inside. Tap it on a smartphone and your digital profile opens instantly in the browser — contact details, social links, website and more. No app, no QR, no internet needed.
How does the NFC card work with a phone?
Hold the card near the top of a smartphone. The chip is powered by the phone itself and your profile appears in under a second.
Do I or the recipient need an app?
No. iPhone 7+ and Android 5.0+ read NFC natively. Neither you nor the recipient needs to install anything.
Is it compatible with my phone?
Yes — all modern smartphones: iPhone 7 and newer, and virtually all Android 5.0+ devices.
Can I change my details after purchase?
Absolutely — anytime, from your Metacard dashboard. A new phone, job title or links show instantly on the same card, with no reprint.
Does it add to Apple & Google Wallet?
Yes. Your profile saves as a wallet pass — always one swipe away, and re-shareable even without the physical card.
Is there a subscription?
No. You pay once for the card — no monthly subscriptions or hidden fees.
How much does an NFC card cost?
Metacard cards start at 59€, one-off. For teams and businesses we offer special wholesale pricing.
Is the card certified?
Yes. Metacard is the only NFC business card in Greece certified by the NFC Forum, built on ISO/IEC 14443 chips — a guarantee of reliable reads and durability.
How fast does the profile open?
In under one second — among the fastest on the market.
Where are the cards made?
In Greece. We design and produce the cards locally, operating since 2022.
Can I add my logo and design?
Yes. Send us your logo or full design and we handle the printing. Available in PVC, metal and wood.
Are there solutions for businesses and teams?
Yes — wholesale pricing, central team-card management, custom branding and bulk orders. Request a quote from our B2B page.
How secure is it and what about my data?
The card stores no personal data — it holds only a secure link to your profile, which you control and can update or disable anytime. Fully GDPR-compliant.
What does the recipient need to see my profile?
Just their phone. They tap the card and your profile opens in the browser — no app or account required.
Can I have multiple profiles on one card?
You can update and tailor your profile per occasion from the dashboard. For multiple distinct profiles, get in touch with us.
How long does shipping take?
Free shipping within Greece. Production and delivery times are shown on the product page and at checkout.
What if I lose the card?
Your profile stays safe and active. Order a new card linked to the same profile — your details are never lost.
