atuch.com is based in US and ships world-wide.

Foremost, thank you for mentioning us. You have compiled a very comprehensive resource list.

Just wanted to let you know that we are located in Sunnyvale, California (heart of Silicon Valley) and we ship nfc tags & smart posters world-wide.

Cheers,

-Alok - Founder of Atuch
[NFC Hacking] Bardamuz:
Soon we will be on that list but with a really special stuff, witch we believe (according to our survey) will be a needing and a most have for NFC mobile enabled.

We will keep you update asap.

Cheer from Asia
[NFC Hacking] nfc-tag-shop.de:
If you don't mind, please add nfc-tag-shop.de on that list.

We are the first NFC Shop based in germany. Shipping in germany is free and to other countrys as low as possible :)

Thanks :)
[NFC Hacking] JamesR913:
How should these tags be formatted for an HTC one x?
[NFC Hacking] NFCZone.net:
It's not necessary to buy the tags pre-formatted, the One X got no problem writing to the tags ;)
[NFC Hacking] krohnjw:
Just for accuracy, the bug is present in 4.0.2, fixed in 4.0.3. If you are on 4.0-4.0.2 you can't format blank tags using Android's libraries. However NXP's Tag Writer will do manual formatting.
[NFC Hacking] Hydromea:
Sparkfun Electronics (www.sparkfun.com) also sells them! Great website also.
[NFC Hacking] gkrawiec:
I wish I had known about NXP tagwriter earlier. For several months I kept telling people to either wait for 4.0.3 or install a mod. A friend just tested it and it works perfectly, format with NXP and then use NFC Task Launcher with no problem in 4.0.0-4.0.2.
[NFC Hacking] Bardamuz:
it also work like a charm in my Xperia S stock 2.3.X … Task launcher is quite good the only weak point it’s he use large memory tags for is instruction instead of (for example) the couple : Liveware , SmartTags from Sony witch can use Ultralight Mifare
[NFC Hacking] Ruuhkis:
Thanks for nice list! :P
[NFC Hacking] t3rmin:
Great list. Thanks!

In italy is realy difficult to find...only on web store
[NFC Hacking] tr.slate:
Here in the US I haven't really been able to find them in retail stores either, but hopefully through this list everyone will be able to find an online nfc store that ships to their country.

If you find any new ones for Italy that aren't on the list, post them here and I'll add them to the OP.:)
[NFC Hacking] tconwa1:
Just bought 20 from tagsfordroid.com with the free keychain added... I cannot wait for this. Used to play with Tasker all the time but bot caught up with changing phones and roms to often while I was a Sprint employee.

Now that it is integrated with Tasker, oh my oh my I cannot wait.

Definitely going to play around with the usual, in car home work locations profiles, but things will definitely get interesting with Glympse use.

Depending on how much I can jam pack onto 1k tag, I may consider setting up complete sets of full profiles with the use of different launchers and layouts and home switcher, changing ringtones, etc etc to fit personal vs work use layouts.

May adhere one to my portable iHome rechargable speakers, and with Tasker and NFC Tag Launcher set it up to under the context of being plugged in to headphones set media volume this, launch spotify that, etc.

Have one for the movie theater, set phone to vibrate, send incomming call to voicemail, autoreply to sender I am in a movie I will call you back later, set up rules if the same caller calls within a timeframe play a single beep notification etc.

Possibilities are endless here.
[NFC Hacking] StormMcCloud:
I have to give tagsfordroid props. I just ordered a set from them at 10am this morning and they already processed and shipped the order.
[NFC Hacking] 21stNow:
Samsung came out with a press release for their TecTiles that said that they would be available in the major US carriers' stores. So far, I haven't found a store that had them. If anyone knows of a carrier store that sells them, let me know. TecTiles are more expensive than other NFC tags that I have seen online but when you factor in convenience and the speed of getting them, along with no shipping costs, it may not be too bad.
[NFC Hacking] kc_exactly:
I called all the local phone retailers and none of them carry them. This is despite the fact that Samsung wrote in their press release they are "available now" at all four major phone providers in the store.

I am in Kansas City. Best Buy, Radioshack, and Microcenter don't have them either. Am I missing something. They don't even have generic tags from another company. Anyone know of another store to try or have they had luck at any of the phone provider's retail locations?
[NFC Hacking] krohnjw:
They aren't available until June 21
[NFC Hacking] unlinker:
This store: nfc-supplies store on Ebay (search Google) is shipping to Italy with low shipping costs (about 10,5 euros for 5 38mm tags).
[NFC Hacking] vijaytholpadi:
Does someone know any vendors in South Asia? Preferably India? Else wouldn't mind an affordable shipping option.

Thanks in advance.:)
[NFC Hacking] AnwarAshore:
Has anyone in the UK tried RAPIDNFC.COM ?
[NFC Hacking] tr.slate:
Yeah, $15 US for 5 tags is wayyyy too much for me. I can find them at one of the links in the OP for about $1 US. Glad to see them pushing the tech though.
[NFC Hacking] NeoVR:
Yes.. i ordered a bunch of 10 NTAG203 tags from there on sunday night, arrived in the post this morning - just messing about with them on my SGS3 now.
[NFC Hacking] NFCZone.net:
Cheap Shipping

We do shipping to Italy.. If you select the cheapest shipping option, you can get

a "standard" size package for around 5-10 USD.

Shipping time to italy is 2-3 days. ;)

---------- Post added at 07:57 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:52 PM ----------

Hey, we sent a package to Singapore today.. 17 tags.. shpping: $4.45 USD ;)

So if you can't find a vendor in India, you know where to find us :cool:
[NFC Hacking] Step666:
Without wishing to seem disrespectful to the OP, this is exactly the sort of thing the Wiki should be used for - that way anyone can update the list.

I have now created a wiki page for NFC Tags and have started to copy across some of the details found on here.

But it would go a lot quicker if other people chipped in.

Also, on the Wiki page, I've added a 'minimum order quantity' listing for all retailers. I felt it was pertinent as some sites have minimum quantities of 100 or more.

If anyone else does copy stuff across from here to there, just do as I've been doing so far and put in '???' - I'll do the leg work at some point and check each site individually.
[NFC Hacking] Bardamuz:
hi thanks for the dirty job ;-)

only one things is not so easy to edit the wiki , i have the complete list of existing NFC tag , but as it's not that simple ( or i am not familair with such format) i can't update it
[NFC Hacking] Step666:
It takes a bit of getting used to, I admit but it's the first time for me too and I'm picking it up as I go along.

There's an editing guide that's worth a quick look.

Alternatively, if you PM me the info, I'll see about entering it myself when I have a bit of time.
[NFC Hacking] Bardamuz:
thanks again i will learn and do it .... it's not a such big deal
[NFC Hacking] krohnjw:
I updated your tag listing, shops listings and apps sections with some more info and details
[NFC Hacking] Bardamuz:
excellent job mate ... nearly complete wiki

But for the Xperia smart Tag you are wrong i have test it with many NFC device and it work fine if you have the Liveware app and the SonySmart app's

and in the app's you forgot the Samsung Tectile (US only)
[NFC Hacking] unlinker:
I've received the tags yesterday, only 4 days. Really fast :)
[NFC Hacking] Step666:
Are you sure?

I thought the SmartTag app only worked with tags that were pre-formatted to match it - the SmartTag tags have some sort of incomprehensible code on them that the app matches to the actions and if you didn't have that, it wouldn't work.
[NFC Hacking] krohnjw:
I didn't edit any existing apps.

They will work, but you need a secondary app to write the blank tags with the URI's that Sony's app looks for, otherwise they won't work. Sony's app doesn't write anything to the tag, it just associates a set of commands with the found URI (numbered 1-5).
[NFC Hacking] Step666:
That's what I thought - I'll update the note.
[NFC Hacking] ylexot:
Nice work, but I would like to suggest that the prices for the apps be listed in their native currency. That will keep the prices from becoming inaccurate due to currency conversion fluctuations.
[NFC Hacking] Bardamuz:
Sure at 200% , i have tested both (Sony & Samsung) in various device (currently i have 7 NFC device)

@krohnjw: that right the sony app's write nothing
[NFC Hacking] ylexot:
Also, what is the difference between "Free" and "Free with upgrades"? :confused:
[NFC Hacking] Step666:
If I can work out what the prices are in the native currencies, I'll do that.

Otherwise all I can do is put in the prices I see.

That's a very good question.

It's not one of the ones I entered, so I'm not sure.

I think we're talking across purposes here.

If you scan a completely blank/unwritten-to tag with the SmartTags app, does it work with them?
[NFC Hacking] krohnjw:
NXP's app has basic functionality for free. Under settings you can change the application "level" which is upgraded via an in app purchase.
[NFC Hacking] Step666:
Do you happen to know how much the in-app purchase costs?
[NFC Hacking] Bardamuz:
Yes it work in both way , write a new tags use the sony original tag, the Sony Tag can also be erased and use with other NFC app's (the Samsung Tag also)
[NFC Hacking] krohnjw:
No, it needs to have one of the 5 URIs written to it before it will recognize the tag as anything.
[NFC Hacking] krohnjw:
Looks like they are all free right now (promotion). Unsure when they implemented that or how long it will last (or expire at all).
[NFC Hacking] Step666:
That's what I wanted to know, thanks.

The note against that app already reflects that.

Ok, thanks.
[NFC Hacking] ylexot:
Looks like NFC ReTAG PRO is from Germany, so we'll need someone from the EU to get the Euro price for that one.

NFC Quick Actions is from Spain, so another Euro price is needed for that one.

NFC Task Launcher is from the US and the native price is $1.99.

I like the change to the NFC TagWriter price. Much clearer.
[NFC Hacking] Step666:
When I browse the Play Store website and click on any of those apps as though I'm going to purchase them, the currencies for all 3 change to USD.

So I've switched all of the prices over to USD instead.
[NFC Hacking] Blo0dyGER:
Here's another store: androidbands they're shipping from germany to Europe an the US.
[NFC Hacking] Ashcunak:
heads up, if your looking on sparkfun search for "mifare" not "nfc"
[NFC Hacking] denenatse:
I bought some from tagsfordroid.com and they took a while, but they work great, neat Droid on the front too. They are also stickers.

[NFC Hacking] Doekus:
This app is not compatible with your Samsung GT-I9100 Telfort

- NFC Task Launcher

- NFC Tagwriter by NXP

Whyyyy How can it be....:confused:

( i have the galaxy S 2 NFC - I9100P )

Anyone ?
[NFC Hacking] beldzebubas:
Great. Thanks!
[NFC Hacking] krohnjw:
The Play Store defines those compatibilities. Is the device newly updated with Nfc? Does it have a modified build.prop ?
[NFC Hacking] Doekus:
I no that i have the NFC chip but how can i update Nfc and modified build.prop?

Thx
[NFC Hacking] Juicy92:
Dang there are so many different kind of tags and stuff. If I want to make some that will say stick in my universal car dock that will turn on dock mode and pandora and gps, will a 1k card fit all that? How about one that will turn my phone to silent and connect to wifi. I have so many possibilities, just not sure if 1k will fit. Also is there a certain type of tag that is better than others?
[NFC Hacking] krohnjw:
1K is overkill for that. 144 bytes should be plenty (NTAG203 / Ultralight C).
[NFC Hacking] Skyrocketing:
How do you know which type of tag you need? I see both the Mifare 1K and the NTag Type 2 (144 bytes) but will the Type 2 be able to automate tasks? What can the 1K do that the Type 2 can't?
[NFC Hacking] Juicy92:
I went for the mifare 1k tags as it is a lot of memory and is formatted with ndef (I think something like that) and they are rewritable. I got them from tagsfordroid.Com and will update compatibility when I get them. I payed 15.99 for ten plus a free key chain I can stick a tag to, and shipping was free
[NFC Hacking] sasha8200:
Any suggestion of seller for India
[NFC Hacking] Dakidd516:
The whole NFC tagging will make things so much easier
[NFC Hacking] brisk5181:
diygadget.com also sales NFC tags

http://www.diygadget.com also sells NFC tags, $9.49 USD for 10 PCS shipped (USA or Canada), very good price.

http://www.diygadget.com/10-pcs-nfc...exus-nexus-s-sony-and-other-smart-phones.html

They ship US orders from Niagara Falls, NY (first class mail), Canadian orders from Toronto, so it is very close to me. I just placed my order, will report back.

New Store for Android Themed NFC Stickers

hey gang - there's now another place to get NFC Stickers - AndyTags.com

They are Android themed and are a derivative of the Android Mascot, Andy.

Full Disclosure: I created AndyTags. I had visited here a month or so ago when I was looking for tags myself. I wanted tags that not only worked great but also looked cool cause you know, if you're gonna put these stickers in various places to trigger tasks, you want them to look good. Not being satisfied with what I found available I started looking into designing my own tags.

The standard tags are Mifare Compatible 1K. 1K may be more than a lot of people need, but this way you're covered either way and they are not over priced. They are black background with Andy Outline in 5 different colors - Blue, Red, Green, Pink, Orange.

There is also an anti-metal Tag available - same specs basically - it has black background with white outline.

Anyway here's the link to the website if you wanna check them out: http://www.andytags.com

I've tested them with many different NFC apps on the market and they work great with all of them, including the Samsung Tectile app, though that is definitely NOT one of the better NFC task apps.
[NFC Hacking] gkrawiec:
Hi, we wanted to let you know that at tagsfordroid.com we have added a new item to our NFC tag bundle promotion. Stickers!

Really cool android robot stickers! Now you can stick them to the tags and differentiate them.

Orders of the 5,10 and 20 piece bundles will be getting them for free starting today Thursday August 30.

So now you get

rigid plastic weather proof NFC tags + keychain + vinyl stickers.

Let us know what you think about them!

Where do i get NFC tags in Bangalore, India?
[NFC Hacking] alankstiyo:
in Mexico you can find them in sony shops, bought 4 for 400 pesos that's like 35 dlls

in India why not try in any sony shop???
[NFC Hacking] gkrawiec:
35 dollars for 4 tags?!?!?!?!?!?!? wow! You can order them online and most stores ship worldwide and you will get a MUCH better deal. Since they dont weigh much you most likely wont get issues with customs either. We've shipped many to Mexico and have never heard of people complaining about shipping or customs problems.
[NFC Hacking] alankstiyo:
well that's the problem here, custom agents sometimes steal things.

and I dont find it that expensive, it was a rough calculation, let me check a correct one, 30 dlls for 4 of them. xperia ones so it's a bit more expensive
[NFC Hacking] gkrawiec:
Yes, xperia and tectiles....expensive :)
[NFC Hacking] FC360:
Carphone warehouse sells them although they are a bit expensive as they are £14.99 for a pack of 4. They are called Sony Xperia NFC Smart tags however I am assuming they will work with all NFC smartphones but could be wrong?

Here's the link
[NFC Hacking] SkzBR:
I have xperia tags working fine with SGS3 :)
[NFC Hacking] gkrawiec:
With the exception of 1k tags working on blackberries (they dont) basically all other tags work on most phones. I know I am being a bit vague...but that is our experience. Until now blacberries are the only ones that have had trouble with 1k tags (they work with other types)....all other combinations have worked (though i dont know if we have sold to all types of nfc compatible phones).

I ordered 5 tags on ebay before I found this app: AnyTAG (the xda news feed featured it)

It reads a lot of tags (like the ticket idea above), including credit cards. (chase freedom for example)
[NFC Hacking] Balounfc:
Identive rating.

Hello guys,

I've just received some NFC tags from identivenfc website go and check them out! ( I can unfortunately post the url :) )

I run a small restaurant in Paris and was quite interested by social networking with NFC tag. I follow identive NFC and Identive France(obviously better for me!) on twitter and saw that they have some new designs (social network logo, bluetooth, wifi,...and other that you can see for yourself.)

I assume that I'am one of the first customer for these new designs. But I receive them in less than a week, print quality is quite impressive and will perfectly match my Restaurant expectation. I can encode these tags with Samsung Tectiles for example...Now wait and see for customer and comment on my social media campaign.

Plus I don't know if you're interested in but I've read on their webstore that Identive will launch a tag management platform with several options and an android app'...They look quite involve in NFC expansion.

Just to let you know that I'm quite happy with my order!

Cheers!

And if you want a checkout my restaurant/Bar just google " WorkShop bar Paris! ;)
[NFC Hacking] yjbeach:
They need to make the NFC tags black. White sticks out to much on cars with dark interiors. Entertainment systems, etc.. (I would purchase more in a dark color) I have seen some on amazon.com but they average X2 or X3 times as much as the white NFC tags.
[NFC Hacking] mynameisNike:
I used the type 2 wet inlay type from tagstand in my home on wood surfaces. They are mostly clear but the antennae shows. May not be what you have in mind exactly but it looks much better than white.
[NFC Hacking] tom70de:
I put adhesive film that you find in all sorts of colors or patterns. They work fine though the film on top.

But Sharpie does the job as well if they just need to be black ;)
[NFC Hacking] hollywoodfrodo:
We sell only black tags with a cool Andy Android logo at AndyTags.com. They are more expensive than the blank white ones - printing and manufacturing ain't free or cheap, but you can get 5 for $10 and free shipping to US ($3 Intl.) so I'd say that's fairly inexpensive. They're cheaper if you buy more, of course.
[NFC Hacking] Xelstyle:
Still looking to see if anybody has an bits of information to offer up on the pack of 10 from diygadgets.com

I'm sure there's not much to save other than the type of packaging it is, but pictures or anything would be greatly appreciated.

Living in Canada, paying $10 for 10 NFC stickers plus free shipping?! Pinch me.
[NFC Hacking] mercado79:
Nice. I hadn't seen these before. I did, however, want to point out that the url is diygadget.com (no s).

http://www.diygadget.com/10-pcs-nfc...exus-nexus-s-sony-and-other-smart-phones.html

They're on sale for $9.49 right now by the way.

@hollywoodfrodo The Andy Tags ones look great, but aside from the added price (vs the diy gadget ones), the site says that they're not compatible with the Nexus 4. That's what I need! This is the first time I've heard about compatibility issues. What gives?!
[NFC Hacking] Jazzy Josh:
It looks like nfclabels might be shutting down. Their twitter doesn't seem to exist and they don't have any items in their store anymore. As well, 5 of my tags were of the wrong style. I'm emailing them now to see if they will fix this, but otherwise it looks like they are done.

Bit of a shame, their tags were really cheap. $0.88 per tag w/ free shipping.
[NFC Hacking] joao22:
Samsung Tectiles and other Mifare classic type tags are only supported by devices with an NXP nfc controller chip. More and more phones will have nfc chip from other supplier. Nexus 4 is first phone with a Broadcom nfc chip ....

(Windows 8 phones support the classic, but it must be NDEF formatted first.)
[NFC Hacking] mercado79:
Don't know if it's even possible, but I saw someone say that the 4.2.1 update brought Mifare. Anyone care to give that a try? Or is this clearly impossible?

[NFC Hacking] player911:
I'm building a setup for a customer that incorporates NFC wristbands and a few hundred Nexus7 tablets. We are looking for 2000pcs initially.

Can the N7 read the tag from the LCD or does it require back access? I don't have any NFC tags available ATM to test with. It would be a pain to try reading a tag off a bracelet that requires your hand in the back.

I'm looking to just use each tag to go to a website with a unique userid. Such as http://www.Google.com/userid=S5JE9B

Does the N7 natively just go to those websites or do you HAVE to have an app installed?

UPDATE:

Bought a few wristbands and testing is done. The N7 can read tags no problem from the FFC area on the top front. The camera being my target. Works like a champ. Writing the tags using TagWriter and launches the broswer as desired!

So just a heads up th camera area is sensitive to reading NFCs.
