PRODUCT SETUP

How to activate your NFCPlate product.

Activate each product, choose where it should take customers, and manage everything from one NFCPlate account.

LIVE PORTAL PREVIEWS

See every activation step in the portal.

Open a preview in a new tab and follow the callouts below. The dashboard and activation previews use sample data; exploring them will not claim or change a real product.

STEP 01

Open your NFCPlate account

Go to portal.nfcplate.com, or scan the QR code on your NFCPlate product to open the portal.

If you already have an account, sign in. New to NFCPlate? Create an account, then continue to product activation.

STEP 02

Activate your product with its code

In the portal, choose “Activate product” and enter the unique code printed beneath the QR code on your product. This connects that product to the account you are signed into.

STEP 03

Choose where customers should go

Select the destination for this product and paste its link. You can use a Google Business Profile or review link, a Facebook Page, an Instagram profile, a TikTok profile, or another page you want customers to reach.

If you want to share several destinations from one product, create an Only One Link page and use its single published link here.

STEP 04

Copy a link from your social profile

Open the platform’s share or profile menu, copy the public link, and check that it opens the right business profile before saving it.

  • Google: Open your Business Profile in Search or Maps and copy its profile link. For reviews, use Ask for reviews in Search or Customers → Reviews → Get more reviews in Maps, then copy the review link.
  • Facebook: Open your business Page, choose its Share option, and copy the Page link.
  • Instagram: Open your profile, choose Share profile, and copy the profile link.
  • TikTok: Open your profile, choose Share profile, then Copy link.
STEP 05

Put multiple links on one Only One Link page

Go to onlyonel.ink, choose a template, add the social profiles and other links you want to share, then publish your page.

Copy the published Only One Link URL and paste that single link into the product’s destination field in the NFCPlate portal.

STEP 06

Name and manage all your products

Give each product a name you will recognize, such as Front Desk, Checkout, or Instagram Stand. Repeat activation for every product using its own printed code.

Products activated under the same NFCPlate account are managed together in the portal. Open a product there whenever you need to update its destination.

STEP 07

Test the tap and the QR code

Tap the NFC area with a compatible phone, then scan the QR code with the camera. Both should open the destination you selected.

Check that the page is correct before placing the product where customers can reach it.

Common questions

What if NFC works but the QR code does not?

Check lighting, camera focus, reflections, and whether the complete QR code is visible. Confirm the destination is active, then contact support if the printed code still cannot be read.

What if the wrong page opens?

Sign in to the product management area, verify the selected product, and update its destination. Test again before returning it to customer use.

Should I test the product before displaying it?

Yes. Test both NFC and QR and confirm that the destination belongs to the correct business.
