Goodz are wooden collectibles that link to your favorite digital audio content. They let you collect and share your music in physical form without the hassle of traditional media like cassettes or vinyl records.
Simply tap your Good against your phone's NFC reader for a few seconds, and your content will be delivered! For more instructions on how to properly tap your Goodz, please click here to visit our support section.
If you have bought your phone in the last 3-4 years then it almost certainly will. If your phone is older than that you might want to Google it first to be 100% sure. Search for "Is the (your phone's make and model) NFC enabled?" to find out.
First you specify which music playlist you want your Goodz to link to. Then you just tap it with your phone to be immediately taken to that playlist via the magic of Near Field Communication (NFC) technology.
What is Near Field Communication (NFC)? It’s the same technology used for Apple Pay and Google Pay that is built into nearly all modern phones. Have you ever paid at a store or coffee shop by tapping your phone? That’s NFC. It is an increasingly popular way to access information, pay for goods and services, and to prove the authenticity of physical objects.
Nope! No app is required. Just tap your Goodz and it will launch the landing page in your browser. From there just hit the “Listen Now” button to get started.
No camera required! While NFC is similar to QR codes in that it will take you to a designated URL, it does so with just a tap so you do not need your phone’s camera to use it.
Goodz are built to last, incorporating robust basswood and a resilient UV printing process in their manufacturing. The basswood provides a sturdy foundation, and the UV printing, which uses ultraviolet light to quickly dry the ink, forms a protective layer, ensuring exceptional durability. This special printing method makes Goodz scratch resistant, allowing them to maintain vibrant colors and high-quality graphics even with daily wear and tear.
In addition to their external toughness, Goodz feature an NFC (near field communications) chip that can handle over 100,000 scans without ever needing an external power source. Solidly embedded within the wood of the Goodz themselves, these chips are both water and shockproof.
Whether displayed on a shelf, attached to a keychain, or passed from pocket to pocket, Goodz will endure for years to come, showcasing both their quality and reliability as premiere collectibles.
Sustainability is integral to Goodz, influencing every aspect of our practices.
Our collectibles are crafted from pieces of basswood, measuring 2.5" x 2.5" x ~1/8". Basswood, chosen for its rapid growth, stands out as an exceptionally sustainable wood crop.
In our commitment to environmental responsibility, we employ a UV printing process. This method surpasses traditional inks in eco-friendliness by being entirely VOC-free. Unlike inks with volatile organic compounds (VOCs), which include alcohols, glycols, esters, hydrocarbons, and ethers, our UV printing uses UV light for drying the ink. This innovation minimizes environmental impact by avoiding the release of substances that, when evaporated during printing, can harm both our atmosphere and our health.
Our crates are made out of PLA (Polyactic Acid) plastic, a biodegrable, bioactive, and carbon neutral plastic originally derived from renewable resources like corn starch or sugar cane. Taking our commitment a step further, we exclusively use only recycled PLA in our manufacturing.
Finally, we prioritize using both recycled and biodegradable materials in our packaging whenever possible.
At Goodz, we strive to not only create exceptional collectibles but also to do so with a conscious and sustainable approach, safeguarding the well-being of our planet and its inhabitants.
