# Can NFC Cards Work at Large Networking Events?

Large networking events are actually one of the best environments for NFC business cards. Here is why, and what to keep in mind when using them.

## The Noise Problem at Large Events

At a big networking event, everyone is exchanging contact details. Paper cards are everywhere. An NFC card creates a moment that is different from everything else happening around you. The tap and response is quick, engaging, and memorable.

## Practical Advantages at Events

You never run out of cards. No need to bring fifty paper cards and worry about quantity. One NFC card handles unlimited taps. You do not need to carry a wallet full of cards home at the end of the night.

## Handling the Volume

At a busy event, some people will prefer a quick scan over a tap. The QR code on the back of your Tappio card handles this perfectly. Both methods point to the same profile.

## When the Internet Is Slow

Large events sometimes have overwhelmed Wi-Fi networks. If signal is poor, the tap still transmits the URL. The recipient may not be able to load the page immediately, but the link is saved and will load as soon as they have signal.
