Tap.Giving makes custom NFC tap-to-donate discs for political campaigns. A campaign orders discs printed with its own artwork, places them where supporters gather (fundraiser tables, rally signage, campaign offices, canvass kits), and every tap or scan opens the campaign's donation page. Discs cost $5.00 each for 100 to 199, $4.00 for 200 to 399, and $3.50 for 400 or more, one time, with free shipping and no monthly fees. Every disc carries a locked NTAG213 chip and a printed QR code to the same destination, and the campaign can change where taps land at any time in the free Redirect Dashboard.

  • Custom discs printed with your campaign's artwork, edge to edge.
  • NFC tap plus a printed QR code on every disc, both to your donation page.

  • 4-inch (100 mm) round or square. 3M adhesive backing is standard.

Where do tap-to-donate discs go during a campaign?

A campaign runs on rooms full of people who already agree with it. The problem is the gap between that room and the donation page: a link read out loud, a website address on a slide, an intention to give later that fades by morning. A disc closes the gap at the moment it matters, while the supporter is standing in front of you.

The same set of discs follows the campaign from event to event. Because the destination lives in the dashboard and not on the disc, the discs stay the same while the page behind them changes with the race.

Fundraisers and house parties

A disc on every table and one by the door. Guests give in the moment, while the ask is still in the room, instead of meaning to visit the website when they get home.

Rallies and meet and greets

Signage and welcome tables carry the same disc. A supporter who came out to hear the candidate can give before they reach their car.

Campaign offices

One at the front desk and one by the coffee. Walk-ins, volunteers, and visitors all meet the same simple way to give, every day the office is open.

Canvass kits and field work

A disc in every kit lets a good doorstep conversation end with a gift, not just a flyer. The printed QR code covers any phone that cannot tap.

How it works

  1. 1

    Order your discs

    Approve your free proof, pick round or square, and order 100 or more. Pricing is one-time, shipping is free, and most orders arrive about 2 to 3 weeks after artwork approval.

  2. 2

    Place them where supporters gather

    Stick discs on fundraiser tables, rally signs, office counters, and kit boards. The 3M adhesive backing is standard, and optional screw holes suit permanent signs.

  3. 3

    Supporters tap and give

    A tap or scan opens your donation page. Your donation platform takes the gift and issues the receipt. Tap.Giving never touches the money.

Most iPhones from the iPhone XR onward and most Android phones from the last several years read NFC with no app. The printed QR code covers every other phone, and both go to the same page.

What the disc does not do

Tap.Giving sells hardware only. We are not a payment processor, and no donation ever passes through us. The disc opens a page; everything after that belongs to the donation platform your campaign already uses.

That means your platform keeps handling the gift itself, the card details, the receipt, and the compliance reporting your treasurer files. Nothing about your finance operation changes except how supporters reach the page.

It also means our pricing stays simple: one one-time price for the discs. No percentage of donations, no per-gift fee, no monthly subscription, and nothing taken out of what your supporters give.

Where discs work on the campaign trail

If supporters gather there, a disc belongs there. Campaigns place them anywhere a conversation already happens:

  • Fundraiser tables. One disc per table puts the donation page in front of every seated guest.
  • Podium and stage signage. The sign behind the speaker carries the same ask as the speech.
  • Welcome and check-in tables. Supporters can give the moment they arrive, before the program starts.
  • Campaign office counters. A standing invitation for every visitor, volunteer, and delivery of yard signs.
  • Canvass kit boards. The kit that leaves in the morning carries a way to finish the conversation with a gift.
  • Event booths and fair tables. A staffer's table at a county fair or festival becomes a giving point, not just a flyer stop.

Built for every kind of campaign

A city council race and a statewide campaign run the same play: put the donation page within one tap of the people already in the room. Discs carry a local candidate's artwork as easily as a ballot measure's message, and a PAC can point every disc at the page for the race it is backing this week.

Your donation page can change. Your discs do not have to.

Every Tap.Giving disc includes the Redirect Dashboard, free, for as long as you own the discs. When your campaign needs taps to land somewhere new, sign in and change the destination. The change takes effect in seconds, there is no limit on how often you change it, and the discs in the field never need to be touched.

Campaigns live on changing links: a primary page gives way to a general election page, a special fundraising drive runs for one weekend, a platform migration moves everything. Your printed discs survive all of it, because the destination lives in the dashboard rather than on the disc.

Destinations can be set per disc or per group, so the discs at headquarters can open a different page from the discs in the field kits.

Every disc also carries a printed QR code

Some phones cannot read NFC, and some supporters simply prefer to scan. Every disc therefore carries a printed QR code next to the tap point, and both open the same destination.

Nothing is lost either way: the QR code is printed as part of your artwork, changes whenever you change the destination in the dashboard, and never needs a separate sign or card.

What tap-to-donate discs cost a campaign

Pricing is one-time and published:

  • $5.00 per disc for 100 to 199 discs
  • $4.00 per disc for 200 to 399 discs
  • $3.50 per disc for 400 or more discs

The minimum order is 100 discs, because every disc is custom printed with your campaign's artwork. That minimum deserves a plain word: a hundred discs suits a campaign with real rooms to fill, such as recurring fundraisers, a staffed office, a field program, or a rally schedule. If your campaign is a handful of volunteers and a single event, a printed QR code on a sign may honestly cover it, and we would rather tell you that than sell you discs you will not place.

There are no setup fees, no monthly fees, and no per-gift fees. Shipping is free. Most orders arrive about 2 to 3 weeks after artwork approval, as an estimate rather than a promise, and there is no rush service. Every order is covered by a 30-day money-back guarantee.

There are no samples, because every disc is custom printed. Instead, you approve a free design proof of your actual artwork before anything is produced, so you see exactly what your discs will look like.

Questions campaigns ask

What is the minimum order?

100 discs. Every disc is custom printed with your campaign's artwork, so production starts at 100. Pricing is $5.00 a disc at 100 to 199, $4.00 at 200 to 399, and $3.50 at 400 or more.

How long does it take to get our discs?

About 2 to 3 weeks from artwork approval. That is an estimate, not a promise, and there is no rush service, so order ahead of the events you want them for. Shipping is free.

Can we change where the discs point later?

Yes, any time, in the free Redirect Dashboard. Changes take effect in seconds and there is no limit on how often you change. Point discs at a primary page now and a general election page later without reprinting anything.

Which donation platforms does it work with?

Any of them. The disc opens whatever donation link you give it, for example an Anedot donation page. If your campaign changes platforms, update the destination in the dashboard and the same discs keep working.

Is a QR code included?

Yes. Every disc carries a printed QR code alongside the NFC tap, and both go to the same destination. Phones that cannot read NFC, and supporters who prefer scanning, use the QR.

How durable are the discs?

They are waterproof PVC, 0.85 mm thick with a matte finish, and the NTAG213 chip inside is locked. The 3M adhesive backing is standard for tables, signs, and counters, and optional pre-drilled screw holes suit permanent mounting.

What if they do not work for our campaign?

Every order is covered by a 30-day money-back guarantee. If the discs are not right for your campaign, contact us within 30 days for a refund.

Can we order a sample first?

No. There are no samples, because every disc is custom printed. Instead, you approve a free design proof of your actual artwork before anything is produced, so you see exactly what your discs will look like.
