Card / tag-based

NFC

Phone-tap attendance with no separate card to issue or lose.

What it is

NFC (Near Field Communication) lets a smartphone or NFC-enabled card be tapped against a reader — most commonly used where staff already carry a compatible phone.

Where NFC genuinely fits — and where it doesn't

Best for

  • Organizations wanting to skip physical card issuance by using staff phones
  • Smaller sites with moderate traffic and lower budget
  • Supplementing an existing mobile attendance app with a physical tap-in point

Not for

  • Staff without NFC-capable phones or company-issued devices
  • High-security environments needing dedicated, non-personal-device credentials
