Frequently Asked Questions

What are NFC tags?

NFC (Near-Field Communication) tags are compact, wireless devices capable of storing and transmitting data, which can be accessed by NFC-enabled smartphones. Similar to the technology found in contactless payment cards, security badges, and public transit passes. Within NiftyTag's platform, these tags are employed to securely encode and relay crucial information regarding an artwork's authenticity and ownership on the blockchain. These tags can not be forged or duplicated.

Why do we use blockchain technology?

Blockchain technology is employed for its unparalleled security and transparency, ensuring the integrity of artwork provenance, authenticity and ownership records, thereby fostering trust in the art market.

Can NiftyTag be used by artists without a technical background?

Absolutely. NiftyTag is designed to be user-friendly, requiring no technical expertise. Our intuitive app guides you through each step, from tagging your artwork to setting up your online store.

How do I attach a NiftyTag to my artwork?

Attaching a NiftyTag is very straightforward. Each tag comes equipped with a durable adhesive backing designed for a permanent bond. Simply peel off the protective layer and affix the tag to your artwork's rear side. Alternatively, some artists have embedded the tag on the front, seamlessly integrating it beneath their painting. Our user-friendly mobile app provides step-by-step guidance, ensuring the tag is not only firmly attached but also digitally connected to your artwork, safeguarding its authenticity and provenance.
