We are proud to announce a strategic partnership between Tappr and STC, a leader in RFID solutions for retail.
STC helps retailers digitize their stock and optimize operations through custom RFID technology. Tappr provides Digital Product Passport (DPP) software that transforms product data into compelling, connected experiences.
Together, we are combining our strengths to create a unified solution for fashion and textile brands. This collaboration brings RFID and DPP together in one connected ecosystem and makes full product traceability a reality.
"At STC, we believe that the future of retail is rooted in traceability and sustainability. That’s why our partnership with TAPPR, combining their Digital Product Passport solution with our RFID solutions, creates the perfect synergy for retailers. Together, we’re offering a powerful toolset to help brands meet new consumer expectations!"
- Xavi Garcia, CEO at STC
What This Partnership Delivers
This powerful integration of RFID and DPP technology delivers significant advantages for retailers seeking to modernize their operations and customer engagement:
- Full Product Traceability: RFID tracks inventory from manufacturing to point of sale. DPPs extend that visibility through the entire product lifecycle. One complete chain of custody, without blind spots.
- Enhanced Customer Experience: Combine STC's RFID-powered phygital solutions in-store with Tappr's rich, post-purchase DPP engagement. Customers get seamless experiences whether they're browsing in-store or interacting with products months later.
- Stronger Brand Storytelling: Inventory data meets comprehensive product histories. Brands can finally tell complete, transparent stories about their products and values.
- Future-Proof Innovation: Adopt technology that adapts as regulations change and customer expectations evolve. This ensures infrastructure investments appreciate in value over time, rather than becoming obsolete.
Customer Experience as the Differentiator
This partnership is a natural fit because both STC and Tappr share a fundamental belief in the power of experiences.
We have both seen how technology can transform retail when implemented thoughtfully.
STC has always been built for the shopping experience. Their RFID systems go beyond logistics, turning physical stores into interactive and intuitive spaces.
That mindset aligns perfectly with how we built Tappr. Digital Product Passports shouldn't just check a regulatory box. DPPs should create real value for customers and brands.
For example, RFID technology can instantly tell a customer about product availability and variants while they're shopping. Later, that same product's DPP can provide care instructions, styling tips, sustainability information, or exclusive brand content. The customer journey doesn't end at checkout: it evolves.
Built for Tomorrow's Retail
Our teams are committed to providing solutions that are not only effective today but built to last, and adapt to the challenges and opportunities of tomorrow's retail environment.
By combining real-time operational data with engaging experiences, we're creating new possibilities for how fashion brands connect with their customers.
I’m very excited about our new partnership with STC, Their deep RFID expertise and strong presence in Iberian retail align perfectly with our vision at Tappr. We share a commitment to delivering real, long-term value to both brands and customers. By combining STC’s local knowledge and technology with our Digital Product Passport platform, we’re creating a truly connected product experiences across Spain and Portugal. Looking forward to what we can achieve together!”
