A $1 investment that makes your product smarter than anything else on the shelf.

The minting fee isn't a subscription — it's a one-time activation that permanently ties a physical tag to the Tapped platform. From that moment on, whatever is embedded in your product becomes a living, updatable connection between you and your customer.

Your customer scans the tag when they receive the product. They claim it to their free Tapped account. Now they can update what it does, schedule actions, set routing rules, and manage it from anywhere — all without touching the physical object again.

You sold them a product. You also gave them a platform. That's a differentiator no amount of packaging can replicate.

When your customer grows, so does the ecosystem — and so does your value.

Most customers start on Tapped's free plan. But the businesses and brands you sell to? They manage fleets of tags — across retail displays, product lines, and events. When they upgrade to a paid Tapped plan, you're the one who brought them in. Your craft opened the door. The platform kept them there. That's not just a sale — that's a relationship that compounds.

Maker FAQ
No. The minting fee is the only cost to you as a maker. There's no monthly subscription required to activate tags for your products. You pay $1 per tag, one time, and that's it on your end.
Any standard NFC Type 2 or Type 4 chip works — NTAG213, NTAG215, NTAG216, or similar. These are widely available and inexpensive. Tapped also supports QR codes as a standalone or fallback option, so you can use whatever format fits your product best.
The tag stays registered on the platform. If the product is transferred to a new owner, it can be re-claimed through their Tapped account. You don't need to do anything — the tag lives on independently of its current physical location.
Yes. When you mint a tag, you can configure a default destination — your shop, a product page, a welcome video, or anything else. Until your customer claims and customizes it, that's what they see.
Absolutely. Tapped works with any sales channel. As long as your product has an NFC chip or QR code embedded, your customer can claim it regardless of where they bought it.
