Tap Essential 3 at an angle with three tiles in place: info, email and shop.

Tap Essential 3

The Tap Essential 3 is the shortest route onto your counter. It carries 3 magnetic tiles with our standard icons, so there is no artwork to prepare and no proof to wait on. Pick your colours, give us your links, and it ships. Any customer with a smartphone (iPhone 11 or newer, or any NFC-enabled Android) taps a tile to leave a Google review, follow your Instagram, or reach any link you choose. No app to download, no camera to aim. Just tap.

Three independently programmable magnetic tiles. Each one links to a different destination, and each can be reprogrammed by you at any time.

Good questions. Honest answers.

No account, no software, no setup wizard. Your Tap Tiles products work straight out of the box. Everything is pre-loaded before it ships.
Yes. Download the free NFC Tools app, tap any tile to your phone, and update the link in seconds.
All NFC-enabled Android phones and iPhone 11 and newer. That covers the vast majority of smartphones in use today.
iPhones take a brief moment to detect as a security measure. Hold the top edge of the phone steady on the tile for a second. On Android, make sure NFC is enabled in Settings and touch the camera bump or centre of the phone's back to the tile.
Yes on both counts. They're made from durable recycled and biodegradable plastics and handle getting wet. Wipe them down without worry.
No. NFC tiles are passive. They draw power from the phone reading them. Nothing to charge, nothing to replace.
Yes. For an additional €15 per part we'll source filament matched to your brand. Some colours may not be available from our suppliers. If so we'll confirm the closest match with you before printing. Every colour in the standard palette is included at no extra cost.
Not on the Essential. It ships with our standard tile icons and no branding, which is what keeps it quick and inexpensive. For an embossed logo, the Tap Board range carries a printable plate.
Always. A digital proof is sent for your approval before we go into production. Nothing gets made until you sign off.
Across the EU, subject to availability. Reach out and we'll confirm what's possible for your location.

A note on custom colours

We source filament from our suppliers, so some colours may not be available at this stage. If yours isn’t, we’ll reach out to confirm the closest match with you before printing.

Almost there.

Before we take your build: your Tap Essential 3 arrives pre-programmed, every tile can be reprogrammed by you with a free phone app, and each order supports a small network of local makers. We’ll send a digital proof for your approval before anything is produced.
