How Taptics works

Pick your stand to see what we need from you, what happens when it arrives and what your customers see.

Taptics Google

More Google reviews: customers tap their phone or scan the QR code and leave a review on the spot.

What we’ll ask for

Your business on Google (its name and town so we can find it). That’s all.

  1. 1
    When you buy

    On the product page or in “Choose your stands”, search for your business under “Link your stand”. It’s optional: if you do it, it arrives ready to use. If you’re buying several for different locations, you can pick a business for each stand.

  2. 2
    When it arrives

    If you already linked it, just switch it on and place it. If not, tap your phone on the NFC area or scan the QR code, search for your business, enter your email, press “Activate plate” and type the 6-digit code we email you. It takes a minute.

  3. 3
    Your customers

    They tap their phone (NFC) or scan the QR code and your Google listing opens, ready for the review. Nothing to download, on iPhone and Android.

  4. 4
    Afterwards

    In your dashboard you see how often it’s used and can change which business it opens. Optional: with “Rating first”, low ratings reach you as a private message (customers can always post on Google too).

How to activate a Google stand when it arrives, then how a customer leaves a review.

Taptics Instagram

More followers: they tap their phone or scan the QR code and your Instagram profile opens.

What we’ll ask for

Your Instagram username, for example @yourbusiness.

  1. 1
    When you buy

    Enter your username under “Link your stand”, on the product page or in “Choose your stands”. It’s optional: if you do it, it arrives ready to use.

  2. 2
    When it arrives

    If you didn’t, tap your phone or scan the QR code, enter your username and email, press “Activate plate” and type the 6-digit code we email you. Test it: your profile will open.

  3. 3
    Your customers

    They tap their phone or scan the QR code and land straight on your profile to follow you.

  4. 4
    Afterwards

    From your dashboard you can change the profile any time and see how often it’s used.

Instagram

Taptics WiFi

Customers scan the QR code and join your WiFi without asking for the password.

What we’ll ask for

Your WiFi network name, security type and password, before you buy. They’re engraved in the QR code, so this is required.

  1. 1
    When you buy

    Type the details exactly as they appear on your phone or the router label. We show the QR code on screen: scan it with your phone at your venue and, if it connects, the stand will work too. Tick the confirmation box and add it to your cart.

  2. 2
    When it arrives

    It arrives ready: nothing to activate and no account to create. If you made a typo, reply to the confirmation email before we engrave it.

  3. 3
    Your customers

    They open the camera, point it at the QR code and tap “Join”. Works on iPhone (iOS 11 or later) and Android (10 or later; older ones with Google Lens). If you asked for it, the network name and password are engraved too.

  4. 4
    Afterwards

    The QR code holds the network and password: if you change them, the stand stops connecting and you’ll need a new one. We recommend a guest network with a fixed password. The WiFi stand has no NFC (iPhones can’t join WiFi via NFC) and needs no dashboard.

For every stand

The light

Hold the button on the base to switch it on or off, and tap it to change colour. It charges with the micro-USB cable included.

Works without battery too

NFC and the QR code work even with the light off or a flat battery: the battery only powers the light.

Your dashboard

Google, Instagram and logo stands are managed at app.taptics.eu (“My dashboard” in the menu) with the email from your order: we send you a code to log in, no password needed.

More stands, bigger discount

Mix any you like: 2 stands −€19.99, 3 −25%, 4 −30%, 5 or more −35%. They all count, including your logo stand.

FAQ

Do I need to install an app?

No. Neither you nor your customers: everything opens in the phone’s browser.

Do I have to activate it every time?

No. You set it up once and it stays ready for your customers.

What if I get the WiFi details wrong?

That’s why we show you the QR code before you buy, so you can test it. If there’s still a typo, reply to the confirmation email before we engrave the stand.
