7. Implementing NFC: Sourcing and Programming Chips

Part 8 • NFC-Enabled Collectibles for Fan Ownership

Implementing NFC requires:

<ul> <li><strong>NFC Chips:</strong> These can be purchased in bulk from suppliers (e.g., NTAG213 chips are common). They are tiny and can be embedded discreetly.</li> <li><strong>NFC Writer App:</strong> A free app on your smartphone (e.g., NFC Tools) allows you to write URLs or other data to the chips.</li> <li><strong>Web Hosting:</strong> You'll need to host the digital content (audio, video, web page) that the NFC tag links to.</li> </ul> While it requires some DIY effort, the cost per chip is very low (cents per unit in bulk), making it an affordable technology to experiment with.
