What Is an NFC Bible Verse Wristband?

An NFC Bible verse wristband has a small NFC chip built inside. Hold a compatible smartphone near the wristband and the phone can read the chip and open a link.

TrustJesusBrand’s Daily Bible Verse NFC Wristbands come as a 3-pack for $9.99 and include an NFC Bible verse card. Any of the three wristbands or the card can open the Daily Bible Verse page.

What does NFC mean?

NFC stands for near-field communication. It is the short-range technology used for things such as contactless payments and tap-to-connect accessories.

The NFC chip does not need a battery. Your phone supplies the small amount of energy needed to read it when held close.

Do you need an app?

No. There is no app to download and nothing to charge. When the phone recognizes the NFC chip, it displays a notification. Tap the notification and the Daily Bible Verse opens in your browser.

What is the included NFC card for?

The included card works the same basic way as the wristbands. Keep it in a wallet, Bible, bag, car or another convenient place and tap it with a compatible phone when you want to open the Daily Bible Verse.

What phones work with it?

Most modern NFC-enabled iPhones and Android phones can read the wristbands and card. The best scanning position depends on the phone. On many iPhones the reader is near the top, while Android antenna placement varies by model.
