Hi Product Hunt! 👋 I'm the solo developer behind TapRef.
Local businesses thrive on foot traffic and reputation, but moving a customer from the real world to a digital action (like leaving a review or booking online) usually involves friction.
Enter TapRef: Custom-branded NFC cards backed by a powerful routing dashboard. Customers just tap their phones to access a Link Hub, a digital menu, or our standout feature: a compliant Review Gating mode that routes 4-5 star experiences to Google Maps, and 1-3 star feedback to a private form for the owner.
I'm currently launching this Pre-order phase to validate demand. While the physical PVC card is the key to the interaction, my main focus is building a robust SaaS backend that brings real value, flexibility, and analytics to business owners.
I would love your feedback on the platform, especially your thoughts on the hybrid hardware + freemium SaaS business model! Let me know what you think. 👇
