Near Field Communication (pre-packaged API)

Near Field Communication (NFC) is a technology that enables communication between smartphones and other devices up to a distance of 10 cm. The connection between NFC devices happens within a tenth of a second. NFC consumes less power. NFC-supported devices are indicated with NFC Tags or tickets.

Some uses of this technology are:

• You can make payments with your smartphones without using any credit card or cash.
• You can buy tickets.
• You can share files, photos, or videos.

The data is stored in tags in a standard format. You can also store data in different formats. For more information on NFC, click here.
