From campaign activations to anti-counterfeit programs.
Commercial model
Pricing is built around business value, not around the chip alone
A serious rollout includes product identity, visual assets, claim rules, mobile passport, dashboard, alerts, integrations and support. Hardware is only one layer.
1
Pilot: validate one product line, batch or edition with real users.
2
Hardware: NFC, QR, seals or cards according to risk and volume.
3
Platform: authentication, passport, warranty, benefits, analytics and alerts.
4
Scale: reseller or white-label rollout with governance and integrations.

What are you modelling?
Choose vertical, volume, security and channel. The model separates program cost, protected product value and possible margin without forcing a spreadsheet.
Commercial estimate. It excludes formal quote terms, taxes, logistics and real purchase discounts.

Total cost per unit
USD 1.01
Protected product value
USD 450,000
Cost over protected value
5.6%
Simple read
For an enterprise client, the key number is protection cost per unit against product value and the commercial data unlocked after the tap.

How to read it
Annual investment = tags + encoding + setup + SaaS. ROI is read against protected value, fraud reduction and post-tap sales.
Tag profiles by budget and risk
Technology is selected by business goal: content, serialization, SUN anti-replay, physical tamper or tokenization. A rollout can combine visible QR/GS1 with NFC so it stays affordable and scalable.
SECURE NTAG215/424 DNA
QR / GS1 Digital Link
Tag cost
USD 0.01-0.04 approx.
Best fit
Content, recall, batch, landing pages, manuals and entry-level traceability at high volume.
Unlocks
Analytics, simple warranty, post-scan lead capture and low-cost marketplace visibility.
Secure policy
Does not unlock premium ownership or tokenization by itself: it can be copied or forwarded.
Recommended for this estimate
NTAG213 / NTAG215
Tag cost
USD 0.08-0.22 approx.
Best fit
Events, credentials, wristbands, mass activations and mid-ticket products.
Unlocks
Physical UID, server-side rules, points, clubs and duplicate control by batch.
Secure policy
Good for loyalty and serialization, but without cryptographic SUN it is not premium anti-clone.
Recommended for this estimate
NTAG 424 DNA
Tag cost
USD 0.45-0.75 approx.
Best fit
Premium products, cosmetics, documents, selected agro and operations with real copy risk.
Unlocks
Dynamic SUN, CMAC, replay detection, passport and auditable technical evidence.
Secure policy
Claim and tokenization require a fresh tap, consumer session and tenant commercial policy.
NTAG 424 DNA TT
Tag cost
USD 0.90-1.20 landed AR
Best fit
Wine, luxury, pharma, seals, caps and packaging where opening or tamper state matters.
Unlocks
Physical tamper, lifecycle, warranty, marketplace, ownership and Polygon/Amoy token.
Secure policy
Ownership opens only with fresh tap + purchase proof/policy; replay or saved view blocks actions.
Hardware + encoding
USD 12,300
Setup / go-live
USD 2,200
Annual SaaS
USD 10,764/year
Activatable tags
23,000 tags
Assumptions
Includes estimated physical tag cost (QR/GS1 from cents, NTAG213/215 low cost, NTAG424 DNA TT up to about USD 1 landed in Argentina), encoding, annual SaaS and setup. Protected value uses average ticket by vertical to explain ROI, loyalty and post-tap sales.
