Frequently Asked Questions

The Liquid Badge works with with any NFC-enabled device, however, as a back up we also include a QR Code that works on  any smart phone manufactured in the past 10 years–if your phone is older than 10 years old, perhaps you should think about upgrading your phone first! 🙂 

If you’ve got an Android or iPhone that’s less than three years old the Liquid Badge will probably work but you can check for your phone here for compatibility.

Most people need just one–unless you change your first name often. The Liquid Badge is designed to be flexible and you can change your business and contact information as often as you’d like.

Even for tech-savvy entrepreneurs and business people, only 1 Liquid Badge is necessary. If you network a lot and and ware many hats representing a number of different companies or brands you may want to purchase a second Liquid Badge just so you don’t have to keep updating it over and over again.

Liquid Badge enables you to hold up your badge and anyone on the call can scan your badge remotely. This enables efficient distribution of your contact information instantly to their phone rather than having to use the chat and transfer the contact info.

Your Liquid Badge orders are typically packaged, prepared, and shipped within 4 business days of ordering. Shipping for one badge is $4.95 and typical delivery timeframe is between 3 to 9 business days. Depending on your location, you may receive items much earlier.

By definition, NFC or Near Field Communication requires that you place the smartphone within approximately half an inch of the name badge. In fact most people just tap the badge with their smartphone. The QR Code will typically work up to one to two feet away.

Due to the proximity requirements of NFC, some people are more comfortable using a lanyard and placing the Liquid Badge inside the pouch (not included). However, a lanyard is not necessary as the Liquid Badge comes with a very strong three piece neodymium magnet to keep it affixed to wherever you place it.
