Write asset links to NFC tags
Learn how to write asset links to NFC tags to quickly and securely share asset details with your team.
Why use NFC tags for assets?
NFC (near-field communication) tags allow fast contactless asset data transfer between devices, reducing the time and effort required for asset tracking. You can attach NFC tags to various assets, such as equipment and tools, and then simply copy the asset link from the asset profile and write the data onto the tags.
Whenever your team members are on-site, they can just use their mobile devices to scan a tag you’ve attached to an asset and view the asset profile in SafetyCulture. This approach reduces the chances of errors and streamlines asset data entry.
What you'll need
Your mobile device must support NFC, and you must turn the setting on before writing the asset link on the NFC tag.
