    {
      "question": "Can attendees tap the fabric wristband on their phone after the event?",
      "answer": "Yes. The NFC chip's NDEF record is programmed at the factory and remains active indefinitely. Attendees tap the band on any iPhone (XS or later, iOS 14+) or modern Android — the phone opens the configured URL: photo gallery, Spotify playlist, highlights video, next-event pre-sale page, sponsor offer, or social-media link. Post-event tap behaviour is measurable through the platform analytics, turning every band into a long-tail marketing asset."
    },
    {
      "question": "Is the RFID chip damaged by rain or washing?",
      "answer": "No. The RFID module is sealed in a PVC or silicone housing before being woven into the band; the assembly tests to IP67 — withstands rain, sweat, swimming, and hand-washing without functional degradation. The chip and antenna are never exposed to moisture across the band's lifetime."
    },
    {
      "question": "Why one-way sliding lock instead of a reusable closure?",
      "answer": "Because the structural value of a fabric festival wristband is the anti-share posture. A reusable closure (snap, watch-clasp) lets attendees transfer their band to a non-paying friend at the gate; a one-way slider makes that physically impossible without cutting and visibly destroying the band. Multi-day camping vs day-pass tier programmes only work when the band cannot be transferred. Reusable-closure wristbands belong on member / season-pass / gym programmes — not festivals."
    },
    {
      "question": "Which chip should I specify?",
      "answer": "Festival access + post-event-tap marketing: NTAG216 (888 B NDEF, smartphone-readable). Cashless food + beverage payment: MIFARE DESFire EV3 (AES-128, on-chip stored value, offline-capable POS) or Ultralight C (3DES, disposable-tier cashless). Multi-application (access + cashless + zone permissions): DESFire EV3 with file-system partitioning. Hands-free walk-through portal counting (entry zones at 100k+ attendee festivals): UHF Impinj Monza R6 or R6-P, optionally as a dual-frequency band paired with NFC."
    },
    {
      "question": "What MOQ and lead time should I plan?",
      "answer": "MOQ 500 fabric bands with full-colour sublimation + NFC chip; lead time 15-20 business days from artwork approval. Rush production at 10 business days available for orders up to 5,000 bands with a rush surcharge. UHF variant adds a slight per-band premium without extending lead time. Bulk-pricing tiers at 2,000 / 5,000 / 10,000 / 25,000+ quantities; samples available before bulk commit."
    },
    {
      "question": "Can the band carry sponsor branding without becoming visually cluttered?",
      "answer": "Yes — sublimation full-bleed on both faces gives 4-6 distinct print zones (front-main, back-main, edge-strip, lock-engraving, near-lock cinch zone, and the inner face if double-layer construction). Typical layout reserves the front-main face for event identity, the back-main for sponsor logo and attendee tier, the lock for sequential numbering, and the inner face for safety / map / venue info. Pre-press sample matching ships before bulk production."
