Why Australians choose ZapCard over Tapt
No card expiry risk
With a subscription card, a lapsed payment means a dead card — at a conference, a client meeting, or a trade show. ZapCard has no subscription to lapse. Your card works every time.
One-time cost beats ongoing fees
$39 once. A Tapt subscription pays for itself in month one — but keeps renewing. Every month after that is money you're paying to keep something that could have been yours outright.
All features included at purchase
Lead capture, Apple Wallet pass, and multiple profiles are all included in ZapCard's $39 price. No feature gating behind a premium tier.
Team deployments stay simple
ZapCard team pricing is $29/card once for 5 or more. No per-user monthly billing, no seat management, one invoice. Teams of 20 is 20 × $29 — paid once.
One less SaaS subscription
An NFC business card is a product — it doesn't need to auto-renew every month. ZapCard is a purchase, not an obligation. One fewer line in your subscription audit.

ZapCard is $39 once — your profile stays live indefinitely, no renewal required. Same NFC function, different long-term cost.
Does ZapCard work the same way as Tapt?
Yes. Both use an NFC chip in a standard-size card. Tap to a smartphone and your digital profile opens in the browser — no app required. ZapCard includes a QR code on the reverse for older phones. The core tap-to-profile experience is essentially identical.
