NFC Marketing
for
Artists, Musicians, and Creatives

Make your next fan interaction unforgettable.

Imagine someone tapping your sticker, button, or card—and instantly landing on your music, videos, merch, or socials. No QR codes, no typing. Just tap.

At OnTheDL Media, we’re bringing Near Field Communication (NFC) to the streets, venues, and merch tables—giving local artists and musicians an edge in how they connect with fans.

What is NFC and How Does It Work?

NFC (Near Field Communication) is the same technology used in contactless payments and digital transit passes. With a simple tap of an NFC-enabled phone (which most modern phones are), your fan can instantly be directed to whatever digital destination you choose.

There’s no app required, no scanning—just tap and go.

Creative Use Cases for NFC

Here’s how you can use NFC with style:

🧢 On hats, jackets, pins, buttons: Embedded tags that shout “tap me”

🎤 On your merch table: Fans tap a tag to instantly follow you or buy merch

📸 Backstage or street promo: Stickers that link to exclusive behind-the-scenes content

💿 Vinyls/CDs: Include a card or sticker that links to your digital download

🎟️ Show passes or badges: Turn access passes into digital hubs

Why NFC is a Game-Changer for Artists

Traditional marketing methods—QR codes, flyers, business cards—are useful but limited. NFC is sleek, fast, and feels like the future. Here’s how it can elevate your brand:

✅ Stand out at live shows, festivals, and in everyday encounters

✅ Instant access to your music, Spotify, YouTube, or EPK

✅ Trackable engagement and analytics (know when/where fans tapped)

✅ Reusable and customizable

✅ No batteries, no maintenance
