NFC added to iPhone 8 and X

 

With the advent of the iPhone 8, iPhone 8 Plus and the iPhone X natively supporting NFC (meaning you don’t need to download an app to read NFC Smart Posters or read NFC tags), this means that both IOS and Android users will be able to easily tap on NFC tags to gather additional info, send text messages and more (see our articles How NFC is changing the way customers interact with products, Using NFC tags for advertising or How does NFC actually work? All your questions answered).

Android has had NFC functionality since around 2010 and advertisers have been hesitant to fully embrace NFC as an effective advertising method as it only worked for approx half of the Smartphone market.

“Now that iPhones are supporting NFC, advertising opportunities for Australian businesses have grown considerably and the forward-thinking businesses that get in on the ground level are the ones that are going to benefit most from this change.” says Easitag Managing Director Warwick Debney.

5 businesses using NFC in their marketing and kicking goals

Thursday, January 30, 2020
It’s hard to believe the release of the very first iPhone was only 13 years ago. If you had told the average consumer fifteen years ago that in the space of little over a decade, almost the entire population of the planet would have a mobile device that could give them instant access to the internet, pay for products, stream their favourite TV shows and music, use GPS to help them navigate, take high-quality video and replace a multitude of electronic and digital products, you could very well have been considered a nut case. Only a few short years later we’ve now come to rely on this technology and take it for granted in our everyday lives. The proliferation of mobile apps and products that integrate with mobile phones has created an entirely new market of opportunity, not only for business but for marketers and advertisers too.
