Security

Locked the moment it’s made.

Every card and tag that leaves W2Taps is programmed once, then sealed. Once your link is set, it stays set — no one tapping your card out of curiosity, no passerby with the wrong intentions, no accident, can change where it points.

The lock

Why we don’t explain exactly how it works

We won’t publish exactly how the lock works. That’s deliberate — the fewer people who know, the safer every card stays.

What we can tell you is this: it’s built into the chip itself, it’s checked before your order ships, and it isn’t something that can be undone with an app, a tap, or a guess.

Sealed on programming

The write is closed before the card leaves us. There’s no open chip going out of the door.

Checked before it ships

Every card is tapped and verified against the page you asked for.

In practice

What that actually means

01The link stays liveThe link you set is the link that stays live — today, next month, next year.
02Nobody else can rewrite itNo one can reprogram your card once it leaves our hands. Not a customer, not a stranger, not by accident.
03Changes stay yoursIf you ever do need to point it somewhere new, that’s something only you control, on your terms — you ask us, we reprogram it.
It’s a small detail most people never think about — until the one time it matters. Why we lock every card

Frequently asked questions

Almost every phone from the last several years supports NFC — it’s the same tech used for contactless payments, so if a phone can tap to pay, it can tap our cards. On the rare older or unsupported device, we can still send the link another way, like a text or a quick message — just let us know.

No — we don’t use QR codes at all. W2Taps exists to move past them: no camera app, no scanning, no black-and-white square to line up, just a tap. NFC is already built into modern iPhones and Android phones, so it’s faster and cleaner than any QR code.

Yes. The NFC chip is rewritable, so if your website changes or you want to point it somewhere new later, we can reprogram it — no need for a new card.

No app needed for you or your customers. Tapping uses the same NFC hardware already built into modern iPhones and Android phones.

A Business Card is the single card you hand to a person. A Tap Card is placed around your shop in multiple spots, each pointing somewhere different. A Tap Tag goes directly onto one specific product or item, with one fixed link for that item.

Yes, on the Business Card and Tap Card — colour, logo, front and back text and a font style are all yours to choose. Tap Tags can take your own custom tag design too. Send us what you have and we’ll set it up.

Add our Tap Tree software to a Business Card — list up to 6 links (name and URL) and one tap opens all of them on one page. It works just as well as a company profile as it does a personal one. Already have your own link-in-bio page? You can use that instead.

You talk to us. Send a message or the contact form and we’ll confirm what you need, show you a design, and arrange delivery directly. No cart, and no card details taken on this site.

We currently offer our fastest hand-delivery turnaround in West London as we grow, with the rest of the city following at the same standard soon. Message us if you’re further out and we’ll check.
