Two ways to sell
1. Sell cards (with stock)
Buy blank NFC cards, create the codes in the agent dashboard, write them to the chip, then sell one package: card + PIN slip. The customer activates it with the PIN.
2. Sell services (no stock)
Help food stalls, cafés, salons or offices set up a digital menu, bookings, stamp card, table QR stickers or staff profiles. You charge your service fee directly to the customer.
You can combine both, e.g. 15 table stickers + digital menu + setup as one package.
Step by step
- Create a free indolines account, then fill in the agent form below. Once approved, the "Agents" menu appears.
- Buy blank NFC cards or stickers (see types below). Test one card first.
- In the agent dashboard, create as many card codes as you have stock. Each code has its own PIN.
- Write the code link to the chip: with an Android phone in Chrome straight from the dashboard, or with the NFC Tools app.
- Print the PIN inserts (10 per A4) and put one in each card package.
- Sell. The buyer taps the card on their phone, signs up, enters the PIN, and the profile is live.
- The dashboard shows which cards are sold (activated) and your results per month.
Card bought
- NTAG215 (recommended) or NTAG213 / NTAG216, 13.56 MHz. As PVC card, round sticker, key fob or wristband.
- For sticking on metal or magnetic phone cases: choose anti-metal stickers.
- Do not buy MIFARE Classic 1K / S50 or 125 kHz RFID cards: many phones cannot read them as a link.
- Printed cards (logo, name, QR) can be ordered from a PVC card printer. The QR on the card uses the "for QR" link from the dashboard so phones without NFC work too.
- Customers' e-money, ATM, office or access cards cannot and must not be written to.
Price & profit
The selling price is entirely your decision. Work it out yourself: blank card + printing + your time helping set up the profile.
Example calculation (example numbers only, market prices change):
| Blank NFC card + printing | Rp 12.000 |
| Sold including profile setup | Rp 75.000 |
| Your profit per card | Rp 63.000 |
State the price clearly before the sale. Don't say indolines sets the price: it's your price.
Agent rules
- Honest. Explain what is free and what is Pro. Do not promise features that don't exist, income, or a "smart card" that can pay.
- Not MLM. No sign-up fee and no bonus for recruiting other agents. Do not sell "agent positions", membership packages or mandatory stock to others.
- The account belongs to the customer. Customers sign up with their own email and password. Never ask for, write down or store a customer's password. Hand the PIN slip to the buyer.
- Personal data. Enter customer data only with their permission, and only what they want to show. Delete customer photos and notes when asked.
- One code, one card. Do not write the same code to several cards, and do not sell codes that are already used.
- Your warranty. Broken, misprinted or unreadable cards: you replace them, as promised to the buyer.
- The indolines name. You may use the name "indolines card" and its logo to sell. Do not claim to be the head office or the only official agent, and do not build copycat sites.
- No spam. No mass messages to strangers or to groups without the group admin's permission.
- Your own business. Agents are independent sellers, not indolines employees. Taxes, business permits and bookkeeping are your responsibility.
- Violations. Agent status can be revoked. Cards customers already bought keep working.
Marketing
Who buys
- Sales, property agents, insurance, dealers: swap contacts often, an NFC card looks professional.
- Food stalls, cafés, restaurants: digital menu with table QR, WhatsApp orders, stamp card.
- Salons, workshops, clinics: bookings and Google reviews via a sticker at the till.
- Offices & schools: uniform cards for staff or teachers (company plan).
- Events & communities: organisers, speakers, small businesses at bazaars.
What works best
- Use your own card. Show it by tapping a prospect's phone: 5 seconds, no app.
- Visit businesses in person with ready-made sample table stickers and a digital menu.
- WhatsApp status and short videos: "tap, profile opens". Ready-made material is in the agent dashboard.
- Offer packages, not just cards: card + profile setup, or table stickers + menu.
- Ask happy customers to write a review or recommend you.
Sales results in the agent dashboard
- Codes created, sold and unsold, per stock.
- A card counts as sold when the buyer activates it with the PIN.
- Results per month: enter your selling price per stock, the dashboard adds up the revenue. This figure is just a note for you.
- Your own agent link (/a/…): a page with your contact details, and everyone who signs up through it counts as your customer.
Questions & answers
Do I get commission on Pro?
No. Pro is indolines' income to pay for servers and development. Your income comes from cards and services, directly from buyers.
Can buyers use an iPhone?
Yes. iPhone XS and newer read NFC cards without an app. Phones without NFC just scan the QR on the card.
What happens if I stop being an agent?
Cards customers have bought keep working. You can delete unsold codes.
Can I set up the profile for customers?
Yes, together with the customer on their phone, or via "Gift": you fill in the profile, then hand it over with the handover code. The customer chooses their own password.
How many codes can I create?
Up to 100 codes per stock, and up to 300 unsold codes at a time. Need more? Contact us.
Customer's card lost or broken?
The profile is not lost. Sell a new card; the customer adds it under Cards with code + PIN, and the old card can be deactivated.
