Overview of TAGBASE

Bridging the real world with the virtual one

TAGBASE is a platform that enables secure, app-free authentication of physical products using cryptographically protected NFC tags. It bridges the physical and digital worlds through real-time verification flows, blockchain integration, and tamper-proof hardware — all accessible via a mobile browser.

TAGBASE is designed for easy integration, high scalability, and long-term trust — giving developers everything they need to build secure, verifiable, and transparent systems around physical goods.

Key Capabilities

  • App-free verification: Users can verify products instantly with a tap — no app required.

  • Unclonable tags: Built on the NTAG 424 DNA chip with AES-128 encryption and dynamic URL generation.

  • Secure delta-based verification: A two-step validation process ensures each scan is unique and authentic.

  • Blockchain integration: Optional minting of NFTs or FTs to link physical items to digital ownership records.

  • Developer-ready: Open APIs, REST endpoints, and SDK-ready tooling.

  • Modular architecture: Supports web portal integration, back-office workflows, and secondary market tooling.

What Problems Does TAGBASE Solve?

  • Counterfeiting: Static QR/NFC tags are easily cloned. TAGBASE provides dynamic, cryptographic protection.

  • App friction: Most anti-counterfeit systems require dedicated apps. TAGBASE works with the browser out of the box.

  • Resale risk: TAGBASE enables resale platforms to verify that a seller has physical access to the product.

  • Brand trust: Verifications can power loyalty, personalization, and new digital experiences.

  • Compliance: TAGBASE is built to support upcoming Digital Product Passport (DPP) requirements in the EU and beyond.

Typical Use Cases

  • Luxury goods: proof of authenticity for watches, handbags, fashion items

  • Cosmetics and personal care: tamper-proof packaging and origin verification

  • Premium beverages: unique digital identities for bottles, vintages, and releases

  • Medical and wellness devices: patient-level verification and secure content access

  • Art and collectibles: physical provenance tracking + NFT-based digital twin

Why Developers Use TAGBASE

  • Clean, RESTful API design

  • NFC writer support (USB and Raspberry Pi)

  • Open ecosystem: no proprietary lock-in

  • Built for flexibility: supports everything from small-batch luxury to mass-market scaling
