Technical Details
Tagfolio uses NFC (Near Field Communication) technology, which is a wireless communication standard that allows devices to communicate with each other when they are in close proximity. When a Tagfolio card is placed near an NFC-enabled device, such as a smartphone or tablet, the device will recognize the card and display the information stored on it. The card is encrypted and secure, ensuring that the information stored on it is protected.
