Both open your profile on someone's phone. They differ in the gesture — and the best cards carry both.
Hold the phone near the card; the profile opens. No app, no aiming, no distance to judge. It feels like magic in person and needs nothing but a modern phone.
A QR works on any camera, at a distance, on a screen or in print — and on older phones without NFC. It is slower (open camera, aim, tap the banner) but it never leaves anyone out.
Every TapAdd card taps by NFC and also shows a QR from your profile. You never have to guess which the other person can use.
See how the tap works or browse cards.
The TapAdd way: pick your object — the Prime metal or PVC card, the Flex silicone band, the Pulse phone sticker, the Clip keyring or the Totem counter stand — and one tap opens your TapAdd profile, updatable for life.
Yes — a tap opens the profile in about a second, with no aiming. A QR needs the camera app and a moment to focus.
No. TapAdd gives you both on the same card and profile, so you're covered in every situation.
