About Adapt ID

Adapt ID: contactless identification and digital solutions from Lincolnshire

Adapt ID is an accredited British company that designs and produces contactless identification solutions and digital tools to connect customers with businesses. Its activity combines physical products —NFC cards, tags, stickers and signage— with software platforms for online booking, food and drink ordering, event and festival access control, brand marketing, tracking and analytics, and loyalty and membership programmes. The company states that sustainability is a central pillar of its activity.

The company operates from its offices and production facility in the Lincolnshire Wolds, where it manufactures and dispatches its products. It states that orders placed before 14:00 are dispatched the same working day, and products arrive pre-configured and linked to the Adapt ID platform. Users only need to specify at checkout the design or logo they wish to have printed; once received, products are activated with a tap and the digital profile can be edited as many times as desired.

Products and hardware

The Adapt ID catalogue includes contactless business cards made from various materials: plastic with black edges, pure carbon fibre, eco-friendly PLA with white or black edges, laser-engraved walnut, brushed stainless steel, rose gold metal, laser-engraved black metal, printed bamboo and gold models. The company also sells NFC tags and stickers, signage and accessories. Among its featured products are the carbon fibre NFC card, presented as an item that combines NFC technology with the durability and lightness of carbon fibre, and biodegradable PLA cards, aimed at professionals looking to reduce their environmental impact.

NFC cards allow users to share contact information, social profiles, portfolios, websites, reviews, music, online shops and menus simply by tapping them against a compatible phone. The company emphasises that the card's destination can be changed without the need to re-encode it, allowing links or content to be updated without replacing the physical medium.

Platforms and software

Alongside the hardware, Adapt ID offers a digital ecosystem that synchronises all its products. This platform enables digital profile management, full tracking of taps or interactions, reverse lead capture, online booking, data-driven marketing and ordering solutions. The company states that its system automatically integrates with over 2,000 partner software solutions.

The platform's applications are organised into several areas: online booking, food and drink ordering, event and festival access control, marketing and brand engagement, tracking and analytics, and loyalty and membership programmes.

Sectors it serves

Adapt ID targets its solutions at event organisers, hospitality and accommodation establishments, sports and equestrian, food and drink, health and safety, automotive, property and estate agents, corporate and education, logistics and transport, and marketing and creative.

Commitment to sustainability and security

The company places sustainability at the heart of its activity and offers biodegradable material options, such as PLA cards, for environmentally conscious professionals. In terms of security, Adapt ID holds Cyber Essentials Plus accreditation, which supports the protection of data managed through its products and platforms.

Manufacturing and customer service

Adapt ID describes its production as handcrafted and carried out at its facilities in the Lincolnshire Wolds. The company invites visitors to tour its studio and production facility to see the process first-hand. Regarding service, testimonials on its website highlight the speed of dispatch —in some cases, orders placed on a Monday afternoon were received the next day— and the quality of the service received. The company presents itself as a British provider of smart, contactless business cards and states that it has received a UK industry award.

Activity data

The website displays runtime statistics that, at the time of analysis, reflected over 990,000 cumulative taps, 45,739 active profiles and 1,917 happy customers. The company states that these figures are automatically updated every hour.
