NEAR FIELD COMMUNICATION BASED DATA TRANSFER
Various embodiments of systems and methods for near field communication based data transfer are described herein. Initially an NFC tag receives dynamic data from a data management system. Next the NFC tag forwards the received dynamic data to a portable electronic device. Based on the forwarded dynamic data, the NFC tag receives data update from the portable electronic device. Finally, the NFC tag updates the data management system with the data update.
