Industrial Applications
The NTAG213 NFC card addresses real operational needs across multiple commercial and institutional sectors:
- Access control systems – Replace magnetic stripe or proximity cards with NFC-based credentials. System integrators deploy these cards for office buildings, co-working spaces, and gated communities where contactless entry is required.
- Enterprise identity badges – Combine employee ID printing with NFC functionality for secure door access, time tracking, and network login via smartphone or reader.
- Gaming and loyalty programs – Casino operators, amusement parks, and retail chains issue these cards as stored-value or loyalty media. The blank surface accepts custom printing with logos and artwork.
- Asset and equipment tracking – Affix or embed the card in equipment cases and toolboxes for short-range identification during inventory audits. The 144-byte memory stores asset ID and maintenance history.
- Event ticketing and membership – Issue pre-encoded cards for conferences, fitness centers, and club memberships. NFC tap verification reduces check-in time and eliminates paper waste.
- Smart packaging and product authentication – Embed the card in product packaging for NFC-enabled authentication. Consumers tap with their phone to verify product origin or access digital manuals.

FAQ
What is the read range of this NFC card?
The NTAG213 card achieves a read range of up to 10 cm, depending on the reader antenna size and surrounding environment. In typical smartphone-tap scenarios, reliable read distance is 2–5 cm.
Can I print on this card with a standard card printer?
Yes. The blank white PVC surface is compatible with dye-sublimation and thermal transfer printers from Zebra, Epson, Canon, and other major manufacturers. Ensure your printer supports ISO CR-80 card dimensions (85.6 mm × 54 mm).
Is this card rewritable?
Yes. The NTAG213 chip supports multiple write cycles. You can erase and reprogram the user memory unless the write-protect feature has been permanently locked. Password protection can be set to prevent unauthorized rewriting.
Does this card work with iPhone and Android phones?
Yes. The card is NFC Forum Type 2 compliant. iPhones (iPhone 7 and newer) and most Android phones with NFC hardware can read and write NDEF data using compatible apps.
What is the minimum order quantity for OEM customization?
OEM orders (custom printing or encoding) typically require a minimum of 500 pieces. Smaller quantities may be accommodated with a setup fee. Contact DO RFID Reader for specific requirements.
How long does bulk production take?
Standard blank card orders ship within 3–5 working days. Orders requiring printing or data encoding typically require 7–15 working days depending on volume. Rush production can be arranged for project-critical timelines.
Can I request a sample before placing a bulk order?
Yes. Single-unit samples are available at US$0.32. For pre-programmed or printed samples, contact DO RFID Reader with your specifications for a sample quotation.
Does this card support password protection?
Yes. The NTAG213 chip includes 32-bit password authentication. Once the password is set, the card requires the correct password before allowing write operations or read operations (depending on configuration).
Is this card waterproof?
The PVC material is water-resistant for incidental exposure such as rain or hand washing. The card is not designed for prolonged submersion. For harsh environments, consider an encapsulated NFC tag instead.
How do I request a quote for bulk or custom orders?
