We believe that the guiding principle of NFC is to make life simple.  Any NFC phone can interact with tags on posters and signage, receiving web links to external content.

So what makes Tag Center special?

Tag Center turns the typical URL pop-up into a branded landing page with information on what you are about to download. It gives you the option to store tags in your History for use at a later date. Just picked up an NFC voucher from your favourite brand but not in town today? Tag Center will store the content so you can redeem it in store later on. There’s also the option to add tags to a Favourites section. NFC posters might not be on every bus shelter quite yet, but within a year they’ll start to crop up more and more. It would be easy to lose that competition win you picked up among the vouchers for paperclips and tea bags; with Tag Center you can store the things that are special to you in a Favourites list, making it easy to find them whenever you need to. Loyalty cards, business cards and more can also be stored in the app.

And everyone likes a bargain. What better deal than a freebie? We want people to enjoy NFC so we’re continuing to give Tag Center away for free.

The app is now available on Ovi, BlackBerry App World and Android NFC phones. Once you’ve downloaded it and had a look around, let us know what you think! We continue to develop our apps and appreciate feedback (good or bad!).

Tag Center voted Top 10 App

Tag Center Application

Nokia N9 users have voted Proxama’s NFC application Tag Center as one of their favourite apps and we couldn’t be happier! 2011 was a brilliantly busy year for us and we released a number of mobile payment solutions and applications into the market. One of our biggest campaigns was for VOX cinemas where we helped bring free movie experiences to Dubai film fans and treated them to some popcorn vouchers as well. Tag Center was a key ingredient in bringing this to life: vouchers, show information and more can all be collected and stored on the app. And we’re so excited about giving everyone a chance to experience NFC and contactless, that we’re giving the app away for free. We want to know what you think works, what doesn’t and how we can make NFC even more accessible and user-friendly.

If you have a Nokia N9, you can find the app here. Another Nokia NFC handset? Click here to see if your phone is compatible. To download the Android version, vist the marketplace.
