NFC Card Terms
Effective November 8, 2026, version 2026-11-08.2
These terms apply when you use NFC cards, stickers, tags, stands or similar items ("Cards") with Ovelo, in addition to our Terms of Service.
1. How cards work
You can use any NFC Card you choose. For each Card you create in Ovelo, we give you a unique web address (a "card link"). You put that link on the Card's chip, and the Card then opens whichever of your pages you pick, which you can change at any time. A card link works only while it's linked to an active page on an account in good standing. If a page is paused, removed or deleted, or you remove the card link, the Card shows a notice instead.
2. Writing cards
- You can write a card link onto a chip with any NFC app. On the Pro plan, you can also write it from inside Ovelo on supported phones (currently Chrome on Android with NFC switched on). We can't guarantee this works on every phone, browser or chip.
- Writing replaces whatever was on the chip before. Make sure you own the Card and that nothing else on it is needed.
- Ovelo never locks a chip. If you lock a Card yourself with another app, it can't be rewritten, but you can still change the page it opens from Ovelo.
3. Compatibility
Cards open on phones that support NFC, which includes most recent iPhones and Android phones. Some phones need NFC switched on, and some cases or metal surfaces can block it. We recommend also showing a QR code or the page link for customers whose phones can't read NFC.
4. Cards you buy elsewhere
Cards you buy from someone else are their products. Faults, delivery and returns for those Cards are between you and the seller. Only buy Cards and designs you have the right to use.
5. Ready-made Ovelo cards
If we supply Cards ourselves (for example, cards with a code printed on them), anything we tell you at the time of purchase about price, delivery and replacements applies to those Cards. The code on such a Card is linked to the account that adds it; to move it to another account, remove it from yours first.
6. Misuse
We may disable card links that are copied onto Cards you don't control, cloned, or used to break our Acceptable Use Policy.
7. Your legal rights
Nothing in these terms limits rights you have under the law that applies to you.
