1) Download NFC Tools

NFC Tools is a free app available on both Android and iOS. It allows you to program any NFC tag (in this case, your Stammy card) from a mobile device. Download and install the app from the Play Store or Apple Store.

4. Select a Record

On the Add a record screen, choose which option you want to use to encode your Stammy card. The most common option is Custom URL/URI, which programs the card to open any webpage. Note: some of the other options may not work with certain devices. Select the option you want. A screen will open where you add the information you want to encode, and then select OK.

5. Enable Programming

Your new record will now appear on the Write screen. You can change, duplicate, or delete the record at any time. Select Write/Byte to enable the programming process.

6. Program your Stammy Card

If you are using an iPhone, place the NFC card at the top center of your phone. If using an Android, place the card along the back middle of the phone. A checkmark will appear when the process is complete. If an error appears instead of the checkmark, repeat step 5.

7. Success!

Your card is now programmed! Hold a smartphone near your Stammy NFC card to send the encoded information to the phone. Note: some Android phones may need to have an NFC setting turned on to read your card
