Frequently Asked Questions

Will grease or oil damage the NFC card?

No. Our cards are sealed with industrial-grade coating that resists oil, grease, brake fluid, and common shop chemicals. Wipe clean with any shop rag.

What if customers aren't tech-savvy?

The beauty of NFC is its simplicity — just tap. No app downloads, no QR scanning, no typing. The QR backup is there for anyone who prefers it.

How do I handle negative reviews from the cards?

NFC cards dramatically increase your positive review volume. The math works in your favour — for every 1 negative review, you'll gain 15-20 positive ones.

Can I put one in each service bay?

We recommend the service counter as the primary location, since that's where the customer interaction happens. Additional cards for bays are available in multi-packs.

Need AODA, MTO, or DOT-compliant lettering? Our compliance lettering specialists have you covered.

Do the cards need batteries or charging?

No. NFC cards are passive — they draw power from the phone that taps them. No batteries, no charging, no maintenance. They work for 10+ years.
