RFID Wristbands

RFID wristbands bring access, identification and payment functions together in one practical event credential. Depending on the chosen wristband, chip and system, they can support entry control, cashless transactions, accreditation and attendance reporting.

Choose from fabric, silicone, disposable and reusable RFID wristbands, including custom-shaped tags and options for short- or long-term use. Branding can be adapted to your event, while chip selection is matched to the required application and reading system.

Hi, I’m Nemo! I’ve been watching closely as these wristbands are made and the materials are selected, so they gave me a job. Apparently, I have to work for my kibble now that I’m all grown up! They even gave me a title: Nordic Wristbands’ two-braincell customer service specialist. I’m not sure about that. Anyway, answer a few quick questions, and I’ll match you with the right material. I’ve seen Jone do it!
