NFC tag reading

🔍 What is an NFC tag?

📱 NFC tags are digital identifiers embedded in some credit cards and most recent phones.

💳 Compatible cards usually display a specific logo (NFC waves). To check compatibility, simply hold the card or phone close to the reader: a reaction should occur.

📲 On Android devices, the NFC sensor is usually located on the back of the device. The Cash Register app must be installed for NFC interactions to work.

💡 What do NFC tags allow?

🎁 If you use the loyalty system, NFC tags allow you to quickly identify a customer and access their profile: loyalty points, credit notes, receivables, etc.

🙋 NFC tags can also be used for user identification (salespeople, managers). Simply scan a card or compatible phone to log in.
