Staging — test data only

Give a little. See where it goes.

Givable World gives physical gifts a digital journey. Scan a QR code or tap an NFC tag, add a small mark if you like, and pass the object on when you’re ready.

How it works For publishers

Development preview. Public editions are not open yet.

Orange Bean character with a tag — Object concepts · made to be passed by hand

White ceramic mug with a blue handle, wraparound ribbon design and blank code area — Object concepts · made to be passed by hand

Receive it.

Scan the code or tap the NFC spot to see the story so far.

Add a chapter.

Choose a mark or a preset message, or leave a blank chapter. A country is optional.

Pass it on.

Give the object to someone else when you’re ready. Return later to see what followed.

Your object. Its own story.

A card from a shop. A keepsake from a museum. A mug on its way to a new kitchen. You choose and source the objects.

Printed journey cards with a blank code area — Journey card

Metal sunrise coin, front and back — Sunrise coin

Enamel message-bottle charm — Bottle charm

Cloud plush with a flat label — Cloud plush

Concept artwork · blank areas reserve space for unique codes.

Scan or tap. Same story.

Choose how people open the journey. The right fit depends on the object and the moment.

QR · point your camera

A printed code works well on cards, mugs and labels. Keep it easy to spot and scan.

NFC · tap the object

Build a tag into a card, charm or keepsake. A compatible phone can open the journey with a tap.

Tap here

Make the tap spot obvious. Add a QR option for people who prefer to scan.

For publishers

You choose the gift. We connect the chapters.

Start with an object people will want to keep for a while, then give to someone else. An edition brings its artwork, introduction and story together.

The original publisher stays in the journey. A separate “Publisher message” can change or disappear without rewriting that beginning.

Read the participant guide

Create an edition

Choose the object, artwork and introduction. You source and distribute the physical objects.

Give each object its own code

Generate a different code for every object. Download QR print files or use each item link for NFC.

Check, then activate

Check each code against its object before activating the batch. People decide when to pass it on.

A few things you might be wondering.

Do you supply the objects?

You choose and source them. The objects shown here are design concepts, not products for sale.

Does anyone need an app?

The journey opens in a browser. Participants do not need an account to add a chapter.

Can I use NFC instead of QR?

Yes. An NFC tag can open the same item journey as its QR code. Give each object its own link, mark where to tap and test the finished object with compatible phones. NFC is an optional physical tag, not included in every concept.

Does everyone have to add something?

No. A mark, a preset message and a country are optional. Keeping the object for a while is fine too.

Can I print one code on a whole batch?

Each object needs its own code so it can have its own journey. The publisher generates distinct codes, downloads the print files and checks each code against its object before activation.

How do I come back to my chapter?

After adding a chapter, use “Save your place” to create a private return link. Keep it safe: anyone with it can act as you. Share the public journey link instead. Without a saved private link or a browser that remembers you, access to your controls may be lost.
