Can you see who tapped your NFC business card?
You can see that someone tapped your card — when, where, what device — but not who they are unless they voluntarily fill out a lead capture form. Anonymous tap data gives you engagement metrics; named leads require the recipient to opt in.
What anonymous tap data tells you
Every tap on your NFC card generates an analytics event. You can see: the exact time and date, the device type and operating system (iPhone 15 Pro / iOS 17, Samsung Galaxy S23 / Android 13), approximate geographic location based on IP address (city-level, not GPS precise), which links they clicked on your profile, and how long they spent on the page. This is genuinely useful data for understanding your networking activity.
Named leads: opt-in only
If you include a lead capture form on your profile and someone fills it out, you get their name, email, phone, and any other fields you've asked for. This data is tied to that specific tap event. You can then follow up directly. Without a form, you only know someone was there — not who.
How to get more named leads
Add a brief lead capture form to your profile with a compelling reason to fill it out: 'Send me your info and I'll add you to my client newsletter,' or 'Leave your contact and I'll follow up with our current pricing.' The ask should match the context of where you're handing out the card. A form with a clear value exchange converts significantly better than a generic 'contact me' form.
Can I see the name of someone who tapped my card?
Only if they fill out a contact form. Anonymous taps show device and location data, not a name.
Does tap analytics require any setup?
No — most platforms log taps automatically the moment your profile is active. You don't need to configure analytics separately.
Can I see if someone saved my contact?
Not directly in most platforms. You can see if they clicked the 'Save Contact' button, but whether they actually confirmed the save in their contacts app isn't trackable.
