Frequently Asked Questions — Event RFID India
- What is the minimum order quantity for RFID wristbands?
- Minimum order is 100 pcs for silicone and PVC wristbands, and 500 pcs for disposable Tyvek wristbands. We recommend ordering 5–10% extra as a buffer.
- Can we get wristbands in 3 days for an urgent event?
- Express production is available for select wristband types with plain or simple printing. Contact us with your requirement and we'll confirm feasibility. Stock items can dispatch within 24–48 hrs.
- HF (13.56MHz) or UHF — which frequency for events?
- HF (13.56MHz / NFC) is standard for cashless payments and gate access — works reliably near bodies and liquids, and supports NFC-enabled smartphones. UHF is better for long-range applications like marathon chip timing or vehicle access.
