    • The first one is the exact size of a credit card, often used for personal identification
    • The two to the right can be put on key chains, for e.g. contact information
  • Middle row:
    • The first one can be screwed/riveted on, e.g. for rugged equipment identification and instructions
    • The middle one has print underneath a plastic dome, for e.g. signage and marketing
  • Bottom row:

    • The second one can be scanned even when put on metal

They are claimed to be compatible with all smart phones (Android, iOS, Windows) and use NTAG or ICODE chips.

All can be encoded with a CliqTags URL (verified).

Generally, the bigger the antenna the easier they are to read and write (verified), yet of course within the limitations of NFC.
