Why EmergencyContact

Built for the real world

NFC powered

Any modern phone can tap it. iPhone or Android β€” no app to install.

Instant access

A bystander reaches your emergency contacts in seconds, right when it matters.

Private & secure

Your information is safeguarded, POPIA-first β€” only what's needed to help you ever appears.

Water resistant

IP68-rated silicone. Sweat, rain and river crossings won't bother it.

No battery. Ever.

Passive NFC means nothing to charge and nothing to pair. It just works, for years.

Getting started

Up and running in minutes

1

Register your band

Tap your new band with your phone and create your profile β€” POPIA friendly.

2

Add your people

Add up to 3 emergency contacts β€” the people who should get the call. They stay in control, always.

3

Live your life

Wear it on every run, ride or hike. If you ever need help, help can find your people.

The moment that matters

When someone needs to help you

They tap your band with their phone, choose what help is needed β€” and help is requested. Simple for a stranger, safe for you.

POPIA first

Less is more.
Private by design.

One principle: share the least, protect the most. Your details are safeguarded and only surface when it truly matters.

  • The bare minimum, always

    We collect and show as little as possible β€” just enough for a helper to help.

  • Your people stay in control

    Your emergency contacts manage their own participation, any time.

  • Transparency built in

    You always know how your band is being used.

  • POPIA-first

    Designed around South Africa's privacy law from day one.
