Pain Points

Updating paper signage takes more time and effort than you might think

Printing, cutting, and laminating are required every time information changes

Design styles and guidelines vary across different locations

Outdated signs and labels linger, causing confusion on-site

Even minor changes require staff travel time and manual swapping

Display devices requiring power, wiring, or Wi-Fi limit placement options

Mistakes and missed updates multiply across multiple locations

Updates Instantly
On-Site

Once updated, the display holds its image continuously without any power source. Just place it down and it's ready to use.

Fit / Not Fit

Start with Locations that Require Frequent Updates.

Leveraging the advantage of zero batteries and zero Wi-Fi, it is built for scenarios where you need to reliably update information on demand rather than keeping a constant network connection.

Still Have Questions?

Don't worry—getting started is simple and straightforward.

Q. Can I test just a few units first?

A. Yes. You can start with a single unit, and paid samples are also available for pre-deployment testing.

Q. Are there bulk discounts for ordering multiple units?

A. Yes. The 6-pack automatically includes volume pricing directly on the product page. For large-scale or multi-location deployments, we provide custom quotes with tier-based volume discounts. Please reach out via our contact form for details.

Q. Can I update multiple devices remotely all at once?

A. No. Units are updated individually via NFC. This product is not intended for applications requiring real-time, remote batch updates across hundreds or thousands of tags.

Q. How does this differ from traditional Electronic Shelf Labels (ESL)?

A. EZ Sign requires no batteries, wiring, or Wi-Fi, as each unit is updated individually via NFC. It serves a different operational use case than standard ESL systems, which rely on continuous wireless communication and centralized remote updates.

Q. Which models are supported by the SDK?

A. Writing capabilities are currently supported for select models on Windows (paid option). Please contact us via the inquiry form for details on supported models and system requirements.

Q. What is the minimum order quantity for custom logo printing or frame colors?

A. Minimum order quantities vary depending on the specific customization requirements. Please contact us via our inquiry form for more information.

Q. What payment methods do you accept?

A. Standard checkout supports Credit Cards, Google Pay, PayPay, PayPal, and more. If you require invoice-based payment (purchase orders), please contact us using the inquiry form.

Q. Can these be used outdoors?

The device can be stored at temperatures of up to 50°C. However, since E-paper technology is sensitive to heat, we do not recommend outdoor use.

Q. Is updating the display difficult?

A. Not at all. Simply create your design using a smartphone app or Windows PC, then tap your phone or reader against the unit. The process takes just 3 easy steps. Detailed setup guides are available in our Help Center.
