A new contact is captured through an NFC-enabled card, but the follow-up can still be forgotten once the conversation moves on. dot. cards can trigger a Zapier workflow when a new contact is created, when an existing contact is updated or when either event occurs. Mobile Message can then send an SMS to a team member with a reminder to follow up.

This is useful for salespeople, exhibitors and networking teams who use dot. cards to share and manage contact details. The text can include the contact information that dot. cards passes to Zapier, such as the person’s name, phone number or organisation. It gives the owner a prompt soon after the exchange, while dot. cards remains the place to manage the contact record. The workflow sends selected details at the event and does not create a native two-way contact sync.
