Configure NFC Stickers

While most desks can be equipped with the Connect, it’s also possible to use an NFC sticker that can be placed on top of any surface. The benefit is that these can be treated like a Connect so that desk check-ins can be made on any location.

To use the NFC sticker the following requirements must have been met:

  • A desk needs to be configured
  • The NFC ID of the sticker must be known or;
  • the GoBright App must be installed on a phone with NFC support (all regular Android phones, Apple iPhone 7 or higher)

For the needed support on different types of phones NTAG213 based NFC stickers are advised to be used, and also large NFC stickers (30-38mm diameter) are advised for optimal scanning.
