Get Started with V1CE

So, you’ve just bought your first V1CE card, and you want to make the most of it. You’re in the right place! Here, we’ll be diving deep into everything your V1CE card is capable of, dissecting how to use every action and more.

Let’s begin with best practices on how to use your V1CE card.

Firstly you must watch the short video below; if you need help, you can join our live chat below or email hello@v1ce.co.uk.

Best practises

All V1CE products are embedded with an NFC tag; once your product passes within an inch of a receiving NFC tag found in compatible smartphones, it will share what information you have set. Take a watch of the video here for how to use your V1CE product effectively.

Before your card arrives.

Create a V1CE account ready for when your product arrives by visiting this website app.v1ce.co.uk. you can either sign in (existing customers) or create an account by entering your email address and password/logging in with Facebook.

Your V1CE account will feature a demo card with which you can create and assign actions. Once your card has arrived and activated, your new card will replace your demo card, but all existing actions will remain. Your demo card can only be scanned 50 times.

Please note that this account you are creating here is not the same account you may have created at checkout upon purchase.
