NFC vs RFID

NFC is a subset of RFID operating at 13.56 MHz with a deliberate short range of under 10 cm for secure interactions. RFID encompasses LF, HF, and UHF frequencies with read distances up to 12 meters. NFC supports bidirectional peer-to-peer, while most RFID is reader-to-tag.

Use NFC for consumer-facing tap interactions and payments; use RFID (especially UHF) for supply chain and long-range asset tracking.
