Tap. Done. That's it.

The scanner does one thing — tap or scan. Everything after that is automatic. From first contact to delivered experience in under a second.

1

Someone taps or scans

A customer holds their phone to your NFC tag or scans the QR code. Their device opens a permanent, unique URL tied to that specific tag. That's the only thing they do.

2

Tapped resolves the action — in milliseconds

Automatically and instantly, Tapped evaluates everything you've configured for that tag — schedules, sequence position, routing rules, conditional logic — and determines exactly what to deliver. No input from the scanner. No delay. Zero friction.

3

The right experience appears — automatically

The person sees precisely what you intended, with no app to download and no action required on their end. You can update what that experience is at any time — without touching, reprinting, or replacing the physical tag.

One tag. Any experience.

Every tag is backed by an action — the thing that happens when someone scans it. Tapped supports twelve distinct action types, each built for a different use case. Swap between them any time — no reprinting, no rewiring.

link

URL Redirect

Send anyone who scans to any web address — a product page, a video, a menu, a booking form. Change the destination any time without re-printing the tag.

Most Common
contact_page

Digital Contact Card

Generate a fully branded vCard that saves directly to the scanner's Contacts app. Includes name, phone, email, company, website, and a profile photo. Great for business cards that never go stale.

vCard / NFC Business Card
wifi

Wi-Fi Access

Tap to join a Wi-Fi network — no password typing, no QR code on the wall. You control the credentials from your dashboard and can rotate them any time. Works with WPA2, WPA3, and open networks.

Hospitality & Events
assignment

Form & Survey

Collect information from scanners before delivering the destination experience. Build custom forms with text, dropdown, checkbox, and rating fields — responses land in your dashboard and can trigger webhooks.

Lead Capture & Feedback
webhook

Webhook / Automation

Fire an HTTP POST to any URL the moment a tag is scanned. Connect to Zapier, Make, Slack, your CRM, or any custom backend. Every event includes the tag ID, timestamp, device info, and location data.

Integrations & Automation
call_split

A/B Split Test

Divide scan traffic across two or more actions by percentage. Run experiments to find what content, destination, or offer performs best — then commit to the winner with a single click.

Testing & Optimization

Conditional Route

Route scanners to different destinations based on rules — scan count, device type, time of day, or custom logic. The first condition that matches wins. Ideal for returning customer flows and device-specific experiences.

Smart Routing
format_list_numbered

Sequence

Assign a multi-step sequence as the tag's active action. Each scan advances to the next step. Perfect for onboarding flows, drip content, or experiences designed to unfold over time.

Multi-step Experiences
code

HTML / Rich Content

Deliver a fully custom HTML page directly in the scanner's browser — no redirect required. Embed video, images, buttons, and branded layouts. Ideal for product pages, menus, or any experience where a URL alone isn't enough.

Custom Pages
sms

SMS / Text Message

Pre-populate a text message — phone number, recipient, and body already filled in — so the scanner taps once and sends. Great for opt-in campaigns, promotions, or any two-way customer communication flow.

Messaging
mail

Email Compose

Pre-compose an email with the recipient address, subject, and body already filled in. One tap opens the scanner's native mail app, ready to send. Perfect for feedback requests, vendor inquiries, or B2B outreach tags.

Outreach
call

Phone / Click-to-Call

Trigger an instant call to any phone number when the tag is scanned. Ideal for service counters, support lines, restaurant reservations, or any touchpoint where the fastest path to a human is what matters most.

Direct Contact

Schedules

Your tag behaves differently based on when it's scanned.

A schedule lets you define time-based rules for what a tag does. Assign different actions to different time slots — by time of day, day of week, or a specific date range — and Tapped automatically serves the right one when someone scans.

  • Morning hours redirect to your breakfast menu. Evenings go to the dinner menu. The physical tag never changes.
  • Monday–Friday sends visitors to your office location. Weekends send them to your online store.
  • An event-specific promotion runs through the weekend, then automatically reverts to your standard page Monday morning.
  • Holiday hours, seasonal sales, and limited-time offers all run themselves — you just set the schedule.

Sequences

A different experience every time they scan.

A sequence is an ordered list of actions that a tag walks through one step at a time. Each scan automatically advances to the next step — no input required from you or the scanner. Choose how the sequence behaves when it reaches the end.

  • First scan: a welcome video. Second scan: your product catalog. Third scan: a discount code. Fourth scan: a reorder link.
  • Onboard customers through a multi-step setup guide — each tap takes them to the next stage.
  • Drip exclusive content to repeat scanners — early access, loyalty rewards, behind-the-scenes posts.
  • Reset a sequence manually or automatically to start the journey over for returning customers.
Sequence Modes
Linear Advance step by step, stop and hold at the final step.
Loop Cycle back to step one after the last step — endlessly.
One-Shot Play through once, then stop. No repeat.
Random Serve a random step each scan — great for variety or surprise content.
Progress can be tracked globally (all scanners share a single position) or per device — so every unique phone advances independently through the same sequence.

Shared Sequences

Publish once. Every subscriber stays in sync.

A shared sequence is a sequence you publish for other Tapped users to subscribe to. When a subscriber assigns the shared sequence to their tag, their tag follows the steps you define. When you update the sequence, every subscriber's tag automatically reflects the change — no action required on their end.

  • A brand can push a campaign sequence to hundreds of affiliate or partner tags at once — everyone runs the same experience simultaneously.
  • A franchisor publishes a seasonal promotion sequence; all franchisee tags update automatically on the launch date.
  • A maker publishes a "product care" sequence for their item; customers who claimed the tag always see the latest care instructions.
  • Subscribers can see what's in the sequence before subscribing, but cannot edit it — the publisher maintains full control.

When you update a step in any published sequence, all subscriber tags reflect the change on their very next scan — automatically.

Conditional Routing

The same tag. A smarter destination every time.

Conditional routes let you define a ranked set of rules. When someone scans the tag, Tapped evaluates each rule in order and delivers the first destination that matches. Anyone who doesn't match any rule falls through to the default action.

  • Scan count — first-time scanners see an intro page; repeat scanners skip straight to the offer.
  • Device type — iOS users go to the App Store; Android users go to Google Play; desktops go to the web app.
  • Time of day — route to different experiences based on when the scan happens, independent of a full schedule.
  • Day of week — weekday vs. weekend routing for businesses with different operating modes.

Groups

Manage dozens of tags in one step.

Groups let you organize tags by location, product line, team, or any category you choose. Assign an action, schedule, sequence, or route to an entire group at once — every tag in the group updates instantly. No need to configure each tag individually.

  • Assign one action to 50 tags in a single click — every tag in the group points to the same destination immediately.
  • Apply a schedule across all tags in a booth, shelf, or event zone — the whole group switches content on the same timer.
  • Wire a sequence to a group and every tag in it advances together — or track each scanner's progress individually.
  • See aggregate scan counts, device data, and top-performing tags across the whole group from a single view.
  • Reassign all tags in a group to a new experience in seconds — ideal for seasonal rotations, event changes, or rebrands.
