Buy Bulk NFC Cards: Tier Prices From 6.99 to 2.00

Buy Bulk NFC Cards: Tier Prices From 6.99 to 2.00 - NFC BULK

If you resell Google review cards, or you roll them out across your own client base, the only two numbers that decide anything are your cost per card and how fast the stock arrives. This page ties both to a quantity, so you can buy bulk NFC cards without asking for a quote first. Every tier price below is the shelf price including VAT, and every order is dispatched from the Netherlands within 24 hours.

At NFC BULK you buy bulk NFC cards at a fixed tier price: 5 pieces cost 34.95 euro (6.99 per card) and 1000 pieces cost 1995.00 euro (2.00 per card), a 71 percent drop per card. Cards ship blank from the Netherlands and every order leaves within 24 hours.

What does it mean to buy bulk NFC cards?

Buying bulk NFC cards is purchasing one and the same blank NFC card in a larger pack size, so the price per card drops as the pack size grows. There are no eight different products in the range and no separate specifications per tier. It is one blank card, offered in eight quantities, from a small starter bundle to a full bulk bundle.

Blank means the card carries no logo and no printed name. You print it yourself, have it printed, or resell it blank and let the end customer link it to their own Google review URL. That is the difference with a shop that sells one printed card to one business owner: here the artwork step is yours, and so is the margin on it.

Full tier table: price per card and total order value

Quantity Total price incl. VAT Price per card
5 pieces 34.95 euro 6.99 euro
10 pieces 59.95 euro 6.00 euro
15 pieces 82.95 euro 5.53 euro
20 pieces 99.95 euro 5.00 euro
50 pieces 199.95 euro 4.00 euro
250 pieces 699.95 euro 2.80 euro
500 pieces 1149.95 euro 2.30 euro
1000 pieces 1995.00 euro 2.00 euro

From the smallest to the largest tier the cost per card falls from 6.99 euro to 2.00 euro, a 71 percent drop. Prices are verified shelf prices, not indications, so you can copy them straight into your own calculation sheet.

What does the 24 hour dispatch window mean for your planning?

Every order at NFC BULK leaves the warehouse in the Netherlands within 24 hours of being placed. In practice that means your restock cycle is measured in days, not in production weeks, because there is no artwork approval, no print run and no import handling between your order and your stock.

That changes how much you need to hold. When lead times run into weeks, you buy a large tier to cover the gap. With a short dispatch window you can buy the tier that matches demand you have already sold, and reorder when you are halfway through. If you are moving cards to walk-in clients, a 50 pack keeps your shelf light while you test which businesses actually pay. If you have signed a batch of clients, the 250 piece bundle at 2.80 euro per card gives you room to fulfil and still have samples left over.

When is it worth jumping to the next tier?

Jump a tier when the saving per card multiplied by the cards you will actually sell is larger than the extra cash you tie up. That is arithmetic, not gut feeling, and the tier table gives you both sides of it.

Two concrete steps from the table:

  • From 50 pieces at 4.00 euro per card to 250 pieces at 2.80 euro per card you save 1.20 euro per card, the largest single step in the range.
  • From 500 pieces at 2.30 euro per card to 1000 pieces at 2.00 euro per card you save 0.30 euro per card, so this step only pays off if you are confident about volume.

The expensive mistake is not buying too big, it is buying 5 pieces eight times in a row at 6.99 euro per card. The small tier is a sample pack: it exists so you can test the tap on your own phones and show a real card to a client before you commit. Once the demand is proven, the 50 piece bundle at 4.00 euro per card is usually the first tier that behaves like stock.

What you pay and what you keep: a worked example

Take the 250 tier. You pay 699.95 euro for 250 cards, so 2.80 euro per card. Suppose you resell at 12.50 euro per card, an example resale price and not a promise, since you set your own prices. That is 3125.00 euro in revenue against 699.95 euro in purchase cost, so 2425.05 euro gross before printing, shipping and your own time.

The same logic at the other end of the table: at 1000 pieces you pay 1995.00 euro, so 2.00 euro per card. At the same example resale price of 12.50 euro the gross on a full batch is 10505.00 euro. Whether you get there depends entirely on how many businesses you can actually reach, which is why the how to resell guide is worth reading before you order the largest tier. If you want the margin question broken down per print method instead, the article on printing costs and margin per print run covers that side.

How do you build your own price sheet from the tier table?

Build your price sheet from your own purchase tier, not from the tier your client would pay if they bought direct. Pick the tier you buy at, add your printing and handling cost per card, then set one resale price and keep it stable across clients.

A workable structure looks like this:

  1. Your cost base. One number from the table, for example 2.80 euro per card at 250 pieces.
  2. Your added cost. Printing, packaging and the time to program each card, per card.
  3. Your resale ladder. One price for single cards, a lower one for a shop that takes ten, a lower one again for a chain. You are effectively running your own tier structure on top of ours.

The advantage of a published tier table is that you can tell a client what a card costs you at volume and still defend your price, because what you sell is not the plastic. It is the setup, the printing and the fact that the card works on the counter the day it arrives. The comparison between NFC and QR codes is a useful argument to have ready when a client asks why a card beats a sticker.

Buy bulk NFC cards without minimums or design fees

There is no minimum order beyond the smallest tier and no artwork cost, because the cards are shipped blank. The entry point is the 5 piece sample pack at 34.95 euro, which is there to be tested rather than resold at margin.

That also means no waiting on a design round. A shop that prints your client's logo needs approval, a proof and a print slot before anything ships. Buying blank moves that step to you, which is slower per card but far faster per order, and it is what makes a 24 hour dispatch window possible at all.

How to place your first bulk buy

Start by deciding whether you are stocking or fulfilling. If you are stocking speculatively, order the tier you can sell through in one season. If you are fulfilling orders you already have, order the tier that covers them plus a handful of samples.

Then do three things in order: order a small pack and tap it on both an iPhone and an Android phone, write down the exact resale price you will hold, and only then move up the table. The starter bundles cover the test phase and the bulk bundles cover everything from 50 pieces upward, where the per card price starts working in your favour.

Frequently asked questions

What is the cheapest way to buy bulk NFC cards?

The lowest cost per card is the 1000 piece tier: 1995.00 euro in total, which works out at 2.00 euro per card. Compared with 6.99 euro per card at 5 pieces that is a 71 percent drop. It is only the cheapest option in practice if you can sell through the batch, otherwise the 250 tier at 2.80 euro per card ties up far less cash.

Are the cards delivered blank or printed?

All cards are delivered blank, with no logo and no printed text. You print them yourself, outsource the printing, or resell them blank so the end customer links the card to their own Google review URL. Because there is no artwork step at our end, there are no design fees and no proofing delay before your order ships.

How fast is an order dispatched?

Every order is shipped from the Netherlands and leaves within 24 hours of being placed. That applies to the small sample pack and to the 1000 piece tier alike, since the cards come from stock rather than from a print run. It means you can reorder when you are halfway through a batch instead of holding weeks of buffer stock.

Which quantity should a reseller start with?

Start with 5 pieces at 34.95 euro to test the tap on your own phones and to show a physical card to a prospect. Once you have paying clients, the 50 piece tier at 4.00 euro per card is the first quantity that behaves like real stock. Move to 250 pieces at 2.80 euro per card when repeat demand is proven.
