Frequently asked questions

Everything about ordering, your card, NFC and payment in one place.

Ordering & delivery

How do I order my own health card?

Choose a card, fill in your details during checkout (name, medical information and emergency contacts) and complete your order. You see a live preview of your card. It is then shipped within a few working days.

How long until I receive my card?

After placing your order we make and ship your card within 3 working days. Delivery time after that depends on PostNL.

Can I order multiple cards or for someone else?

Yes. You can order as many cards as you like, also for family or friends, as long as you enter the correct details per card. A second card even comes with a discount.

Can I change my details after ordering?

As long as your card is not yet in production you can still adjust the details via your account. Once we start printing it is fixed, so please double-check before you check out.

Can I return my card?

Because every card is custom-made with your personal details, returns or exchanges are not possible, except in case of an error on our side, which we will of course fix free of charge.

The card & personalisation

What types of cards are there?

We offer cards for gastric bypass, gastric sleeve, allergies, epilepsy and a do-not-resuscitate (DNR) card, among others. You can also build a general health card.

What goes on my card?

The front clearly shows what the card is for (e.g. MEDICAL ALERT). The back holds your name and the fields you fill in: GP, hospital, pharmacy, emergency contacts and extra medical information. Fields you leave empty don't appear on the card.

What material is the card made of?

The card is sturdy PVC in credit-card size, printed using dye-sublimation: the ink draws into the surface for a crisp, durable result that holds up to everyday use.

What if I have multiple conditions or allergies?

In the 'Extra information' field you can briefly list multiple conditions, medicines or allergies. Keep it concise so it fits legibly on the card and the key info stands out.

NFC & medical profile

What is NFC and do I need an app?

NFC is the same technology as contactless payment. Hold the card to a phone and your online medical profile opens automatically, no app or install needed. NFC is optional; your card works fine without it too.

Does NFC work on every phone?

NFC works on almost any modern phone, both Apple and Android. Hold the card against the back of the phone and your online profile opens automatically, no app or install needed.

Who can see my medical data and is it safe?

You decide per item what is publicly visible and what stays private. The rest is managed securely in your account. Your data is stored on EU servers and not shared; the profile is only reachable via your unique, unguessable link.

How is the NFC card secured?

The card uses an NTAG424 DNA chip. With every scan it creates a fresh, encrypted code — the NTAG424 DNA technology (also called ‘SUN’) — that we verify. So your medical profile only opens when someone holds your actual card against a phone: a copied or forwarded link won't work. Your data is also stored encrypted and GDPR-compliant on EU servers.

Can I update my medical profile later?

Yes. You manage your online profile entirely yourself via your account: update medical details, medication and emergency contacts whenever you like. The physical card never needs reordering for that.

Use & safety

Is the health card an officially recognised medical device?

No, the health card is not an officially recognised medical device. It is an aid that complements official documents and quickly gives responders the right information in an emergency.

Where should I keep my card?

Keep the card where responders quickly find it, for example in your wallet next to your ID. You can optionally add a matching keychain so the details are always on your keys.

Is the card suitable for children or the elderly?

Absolutely. The card is for anyone who wants to make key information clear quickly in an emergency, especially for children or elderly people who may not be able to tell it themselves.

Payment & shipping

Which payment methods can I use?

You pay securely via Mollie with iDEAL, Bancontact, Klarna, Riverty, credit card or bank transfer, among others.

When is shipping free?

Shipping is free from € 40 in your cart. Below that we charge a small shipping fee, shown in your cart.

Do I get an invoice for my order?

Yes. After payment you automatically receive a confirmation with the invoice by email. You can also always find it in your account.
