How do I activate my Smart Card?

Scan the QR code on the back of your card with your phone camera. Follow the on-screen instructions to create your account and set up your digital profile. Your card is ready to use in minutes.

First-time activation

  1. Take your new V1CE Smart Card out of the packaging

  2. Flip it over to find the QR code on the back

  3. Open your phone camera and point it at the QR code

  4. Tap the link that appears on your screen

  5. Create your V1CE account (or log in if you already have one)

  6. Fill in your details — name, title, phone, email, photo

  7. Click Publish or Go Live

Your card is now active. When someone taps it or scans the QR code, they will see your digital profile.

Activating a card from your dashboard

If you already have a V1CE account and want to add a new card:

  1. Log in at app.v1ce.co

  2. Go to NFC Cards in the left menu

  3. Click Activate Now or Add Card

  4. Scan the QR code on the back of your new card

  5. Choose which digital profile to link it to

  6. Click Save

Setting up a card for someone else

If you are a team admin setting up a card for an employee:

  1. Log in to your Teams admin account

  2. Make sure the team member has been invited and accepted

  3. Go to NFC Cards

  4. Activate the new card

  5. Assign it to the team member's profile

Alternatively, you can give the card to the team member and let them scan the QR code themselves. They will be prompted to join your team.

My card came with an order but I cannot find it in my dashboard

If you ordered through the website and cannot see your card in the dashboard:

• Make sure you are logged in with the same email you used to order • Check that the card has been scanned at least once to register it • If the card shows as assigned to another user, contact our team with a photo of the QR code

Tips

• Your card works immediately after activation — no waiting period • You can change your profile details at any time without affecting the physical card • If you have multiple cards, each one can link to a different profile
