MOTTIE

How it works

One tap. No app.
Your choice of link.

Every Mottie carries a small NFC chip sealed behind its emblem. Phones read it the way they read a contactless card.

  1. Activate

    Tap your new piece and enter the code from the card in its box. You choose your name, photo and links.

  2. Wear

    On a tie, a lapel, a dress or a uniform. Nothing to charge, nothing to switch on.

  3. Connect

    Anyone holds their phone to the emblem and your profile opens: LinkedIn, CV, save your contact.

What is NFC?

The technology of your bank card,
hidden in a piece of jewellery.

NFC means Near Field Communication. When a phone comes very close, it creates a small radio field. The chip uses that field to wake up and pass on one web address. The phone opens it.

  • No batteryThe phone powers the chip for an instant. Nothing to charge, ever.
  • Contact onlyIt reads at 0 to 1 cm. Nobody can read it from across the room.
  • One addressThe chip only holds the address of your piece. Your details live on your profile, and you change them whenever you like.
  • Through metalMetal blocks normal chips. Ours sits on an anti-metal layer, made for jewellery.

Works with your phone

  • iPhone. XS and newer: hold the top of the phone to the emblem, then tap the notice that appears. That notice is an Apple security step.
  • Android. With NFC turned on (it usually is): hold the middle of the back of the phone to the emblem.
  • No NFC? Type the short address printed on the card in the box.
