Help & setup

Set up your NFC tag with any link

WhatsApp, LinkedIn, YouTube, Linktree, a website, a Google review link and more.

Asked us to program it when you ordered? It's already done. Just unlock your phone and tap.

1 Before you start

  1. Unlock your phone. A locked phone won't read or write tags.
  2. Android: make sure NFC is on (Settings, then Connected devices or Connections).
  3. Install the free NFC Tools app.

NFC Tools for iPhoneNFC Tools for Android

Get your link first. In most apps, open your profile, tap Share and then Copy link. For WhatsApp, use https://wa.me/16135550100 with your number, country code first and no spaces.

2 Add your link

  1. Open NFC Tools and tap Write, then Add a record.
  2. Choose Custom URL / URI. Not the plain "URL / URI" option: that one adds its own https:// and your link would break.
  3. Paste your full link, including https://, for example https://instagram.com/printpluto.
  4. Tap OK.

3 Write it to your tag

  1. Tap Write.
  2. Hold the tag against your phone's NFC spot: iPhone top edge, near the front camera. Android the back, around the middle.
  3. Keep still until it says Write complete. If it fails, try again a little slower.

4 Test it

Close NFC Tools, unlock your phone and tap the tag. It should open straight away. 🎉

⚠️ Never tap "Lock tag" or "Set password" in NFC Tools. Locking is permanent: the tag can never be changed again.
