Taplink rolls out NFC and QR-enabled smart business cards across your entire organisation — centrally managed, consistently branded, and ready to scale as your team grows.
Smart business cards for teams
Provision branded cards in bulk. Update details centrally. No app required.
Works on Android and iOS — for every connection your team makes.
Smart business cards combine the familiarity of a traditional card with NFC (Near Field Communication) technology, letting your team share rich, up-to-date information with anyone holding a smartphone.
Each card stores your team member's digital identity — contact details, role, company website, social profiles, even product videos — all linked to a centrally managed profile.
When the card is held near an NFC-enabled smartphone, the recipient instantly sees your employee's profile — no app to install, no friction. They can save the contact in seconds.
Profiles can carry far more than a phone number: clickable links to product demos, case studies, calendars, or PDFs. Every team member effectively carries your sales toolkit in their wallet.
Track how often cards are tapped, which profiles get the most attention, and how your team's outreach is performing — visibility your business cards never gave you before.
The result: a more convenient, branded, measurable way for your team to make every connection count.
Every card carries your corporate branding and links to a profile that fits your visual identity. Equip ten employees or ten thousand — Taplink handles bulk provisioning, central management, and consistent presentation across your whole organisation. No app required for recipients on Android or iOS.

1. We work with you on a card design that matches your brand guidelines.
2. You provide your team roster — we handle the rest.
3. We print, encode, and ship cards to your offices or directly to staff.
4. Your team taps cards on prospects' phones or shares via QR code.
5. Recipients save your team's details to contacts in seconds.
6. You manage profiles, departures, and rebrands from one dashboard.
7. As the team grows, you order more cards from the portal, and assign spare stock to a new starter the same day.
A Taplink rollout is not just cards. Every card is backed by a central admin portal, so you run your whole team from one place. When someone joins, leaves, or changes role, you update their profile centrally and the cards already handed out keep working with the new details. That management layer is what sets Taplink apart from a plain printed card.
It also means your brand travels with every card. Set your company Facebook, Instagram, X and LinkedIn addresses once, and they appear on every employee profile, so a tap points a new contact at your company presence and not only at the individual who handed the card over.
A printed card hands your details out and the exchange ends there. A Taplink profile can also collect theirs, so the tap that introduces your rep is the same tap that captures the lead.
Every profile can show a “Share your details” form. The visitor gives a name and an email address or telephone number, and can add a company and a note.
The cardholder is emailed the moment a lead comes in. Nobody has to remember to check a dashboard, and nothing waits for a weekly report.
The visitor has to tick a consent box, and the moment they gave it is stored with the lead. That is the record a POPIA-minded buyer will ask you for.
Every lead your company captures lands on one dashboard, and exports to CSV from your own account whenever you want it.
What it does not do, so you can plan around it: there is no CRM integration, no lead scoring, and no automatic follow-up. Leads arrive by email and leave as CSV, and what happens next is yours.
From national brands to growing businesses, real teams run Taplink.
Real client cards. Personal details are redacted for privacy.
From a business card meant to be shared, to a safety inspection tag that must never be faked, Taplink gives every tap exactly the proof it is worth. Choose your level. Pay for what the moment needs, and nothing you do not.
Every Taplink tag is more than a link. As the stakes rise, so does what the tag and our servers can prove about each tap: from a simple share, to catching a copy, to rejecting one outright, to confirming the tag has never left the asset it was fixed to.
Tap to share, instantly. No app, no fuss.
Know your tag is the real one, and get warned the moment a copy shows up.
A copied tag simply will not work.
Proof the tag is genuine, the tap is fresh, and it is still on the asset.
Layer a location audit trail onto any secured tag (Tiers 2 and up). Each tap can record where and when it happened, giving you a running history of your asset in the field. It is an audit trail, not a guarantee: the reading comes from the scanning phone, so treat it as strong supporting evidence rather than absolute proof. For location you can fully trust, Tier 4 anchors the tag to the asset itself.
A phone taps the Taplink tag. No app required.
The tag hands our servers a signal only a genuine tag can produce. We check it in real time.
Genuine and fresh, and you are through. Copied, replayed, or tampered, and we flag or block it, depending on your tier.
Not sure which tier fits? Tell us what a faked tap would cost you, and we will point you to the right one.

Taplink is built and run by Strata Logic, a South African web and enterprise software company. We ship production Laravel platforms to enterprise clients — Taplink is the same engineering applied to digital business cards.
No — recipients see your team member's branded profile in their phone browser and can save the contact in one tap. No app, no signup, no friction.
Yes. iPhones running iOS 14 or later read NFC tags natively, and the QR code on the back of every card works on any smartphone — Android or iOS — going back many years.
Yes. We work with you to produce a card design that matches your brand guidelines. Every card and every digital profile carries your corporate branding.
You update or deactivate their profile from the central dashboard. The card already in someone's wallet keeps working with the new details — no reprinting required.
Your first rollout runs 7 to 14 working days from sign-off on the card design. We encode, print, and ship cards to your offices or directly to staff.
Same day, if you hold spare stock. We can ship spare unassigned cards alongside your rollout, and your administrator assigns one to a new starter from the portal in minutes. Until a card is assigned, its page shows a neutral holding message carrying your company logo. If you need more cards, you order them from the portal and we print and ship them.
Yes. You can hide your street address, your postal address, and your company switchboard number, each independently, across every one of your company's profiles. The country is still shown. Each employee's own name, job title, email address and mobile number are unaffected. Hidden fields are also stripped from the contact card a visitor downloads, so they are genuinely withheld rather than merely hidden on the page.
We quote each rollout based on team size and any customisation. Most quotes turn around in one business day. Use the contact form on this page, or email web@taplink.co.za.
We print and ship from South Africa, and deliver anywhere in South Africa and Namibia.
You do. Your data is held centrally in your account. Captured leads export to CSV from your dashboard at any time, and we will provide a full export of your team's profile data on request.
Tell us about your rollout. How many cards, what your team looks like, what your brand needs — we'll come back with a tailored quote within one business day.
