Customer Encoding

Customers may encode blank tags using the GoToTags Desktop App, which is supported by Windows, macOS and Linux operating systems.

Customers may also encode with their NFC-enabled Android phone, or specific versions of the Apple iPhone and iOS, utilizing third-party applications.

Non-NDEF NFC Encoding Formats

GoToTags Desktop App supports NDEF-based NFC tag encoding and limited non-NDEF encoding of raw data on Type 2 and 5 tags.

A non-NDEF format is generally advised when the customer has a pre-existing system and desires legacy support for that specific system. The following applications typically use a non-NDEF format and cannot be encoded by the GoToTags Store or Desktop App:

Payment (credit card, banking…)
Transportation
Secure entrance (HID Global cards and key chains)
Some ticketing systems
Other proprietary formats

In these cases, the customer will have to encode their tags.

GoToTags Tag Encoding Service

GoToTags provides a paid service to those customers who do not wish to perform their own encoding. The customer can purchase the GoToTags NFC or UHF RFID tag Encoding Service when they buy their NFC tags. Learn more about the ordering process.
