NFC chips
Wireless proximity transmitters
NFC chips are small electronic components that enable near-field communication—wireless data transfer between devices held close together.
They power contactless payments, transit cards, and smartphone features like tap-to-pay.
NFC chips can be embedded in cards, phones, stickers, or even implanted under skin.
