If you are looking to buy an NFC business card in Egypt, you have probably noticed that the market has grown significantly over the past few years. There are now several brands, materials, price points, and features to choose from. This guide covers everything you need to know before making a decision.
What Is an NFC Business Card?
An NFC business card is a smart card embedded with an NFC chip that opens your digital profile the moment someone taps it against their smartphone. One tap shares your phone number, WhatsApp, email, social media profiles, website, PDF files, location, and more — no app required for the recipient.

Why Are Professionals in Egypt Switching to NFC Cards?
The shift away from paper business cards in Egypt has been driven by three things: the rise of smartphone usage, the growing importance of digital presence, and the simple frustration of running out of paper cards at the wrong moment.
An NFC business card solves all three problems. It works on any modern smartphone, it links directly to your full online presence, and it never runs out. One card lasts a lifetime.
What Types of NFC Business Cards Are Available in Egypt?
Cardtap offers four main product categories, each suited to different needs and budgets.
NFC Plastic Business Cards
NFC plastic business cards are the most popular choice for everyday professionals. They are lightweight, waterproof, durable, and available in multiple designs including Black, White, Gradient, and Summer Edition. The card size is 8.5 × 5.5 cm — identical to a standard business card — so it fits in any wallet or cardholder. The chip inside is an NTAG213, which is compatible with all NFC-enabled Android phones and all iPhones from the iPhone XS and later.
Plastic NFC cards are ideal for freelancers, sales professionals, real estate agents, healthcare workers, and anyone who networks regularly and wants a practical, affordable smart card.
NFC Metal Business Cards
NFC metal business cards are the premium tier. Available in Black, Gold, and Silver finishes, metal cards make an immediate impression the moment you hand them over. The weight alone communicates quality before the recipient even taps the card.
Metal NFC cards from Cardtap come in two finishing options. Laser Engraving produces a precise, elegant design with no colours — ideal for a minimalist, executive look. UV Printing reproduces your logo and brand colours in full, vivid detail directly on the metal surface — ideal for businesses that want their card to reflect their brand identity.
Metal cards are the preferred choice for executives, founders, lawyers, doctors, luxury brand representatives, and senior corporate professionals.
Custom NFC Business Cards
Custom NFC business cards are available in both plastic and metal, with your own logo, brand colours, and layout printed on the card. There is no minimum order — you can order as few as one card. Custom cards are ideal for companies, startups, and individuals who want a card that is uniquely theirs.
NFC Tags
NFC tags are circular adhesive smart tags (3 × 3 cm) that stick to any surface. Attach one to the back of your phone, your laptop, your desk, or anywhere you want to create an instant tap point. They work exactly like an NFC business card but without the card format.
How Much Do NFC Business Cards Cost in Egypt?
Cardtap offers some of the most competitive prices for NFC business cards in Egypt. Plastic NFC cards start from 349 EGP. Metal NFC cards start from 799 EGP. Custom-designed cards are available in both plastic and metal with no minimum order requirement. All orders include free shipping across Egypt.
What Should You Look for When Buying an NFC Business Card in Egypt?
Not all NFC business cards are equal. Here are the key factors to consider before buying.
First, check the NFC chip type. The NTAG213 chip used in Cardtap products is one of the most reliable and widely compatible chips available. It works with virtually every NFC-enabled device on the market.
Second, check whether the digital profile is included. Some suppliers charge a monthly subscription for the profile platform. Cardtap includes the digital profile for free with every card — no subscriptions, no hidden fees.
Third, check whether you can update your profile. A good NFC business card lets you update your information at any time without reprinting. With Cardtap, your profile is always editable from any device.
Fourth, check the card dimensions. Standard business card size is 8.5 × 5.5 cm. Cardtap cards match this exactly, so they fit in standard cardholders and wallets without any issues.
Fifth, consider the finishing options. If you are ordering a metal card, make sure the supplier offers both laser engraving and UV printing so you can choose the finish that suits your brand.
How Long Does Delivery Take?
Standard Cardtap orders (non-customized) are typically delivered within 2 business days across Egypt. Customized orders take up to 4 business days from the date your design is approved. Free shipping applies to all orders.
