Contactless NFC membership cards are widely used in membership management in restaurants, bars, hotels, salons, and so on.

The NFC contactless membership card that is used for membership management has the following advantages:
1. Good durability: There is no mechanical contact between the contactless NFC card and the reader, avoiding various failures due to contact reading and writing. In addition, there is no exposed chip on the surface of the contactless NFC card, so there is no need to worry about the chip falling off, electrostatic breakdown, bending damage, etc., which not only facilitates the printing of the card but also improves the reliability of the card.
2. Convenient operation: Since the non-contact NFC card reader can operate the card within 8cm, there is no need to insert or remove the card, which is very convenient for users to use. The non-contact NFC card has no directionality when used, and the card can be swiped in any direction to complete the operation, which greatly improves the speed of each use.
3. Extended function: The storage structure characteristics of the non-contact card make it multi-purpose and can be applied in different systems.
