Linking Your RFID Card to Your 4Geeks Perks Account

🤖 Explain with AI

The 4Geeks Perks Card is an RFID-based smart card that links directly to your personal digital wallet within the 4Geeks Perks platform. By linking this card to your account, you can effortlessly redeem benefits—such as purchasing coffee, snacks from vending machines, or accessing corporate dining—with a simple tap, eliminating the need for cash or manual vouchers.

This guide explains how to link a new RFID card to your profile and activate it for immediate use.

Prerequisites

Before you begin, ensure you have the following:

  • Active 4Geeks Account: You must be able to log in to the 4Geeks Console.
  • Physical RFID Card: You should have received your 4Geeks Perks Card from your HR or Facilities manager.
  • Card ID: Locate the unique serial number printed on the back of your card.

Step-by-Step Instructions

Follow these steps to associate your physical card with your digital wallet.

Step 1: Log in to the Console

  1. Open your web browser and navigate to the 4Geeks Console.
  2. Log in using your corporate credentials.

Step 2: Access Your Personal Wallet

  1. From the main dashboard, locate the Perks module in the navigation menu.
  2. Click on My Wallet or Personal Settings.
  3. You will see your current point balance and transaction history.

Step 3: Register New Card

  1. Look for the “Manage Cards” or “Link RFID Device” section.
  2. Click on Add New Card.
  3. A form will appear asking for the Card ID.
  4. Carefully enter the unique alphanumerical code found on the back of your physical card.
  5. (Optional) Add a descriptive name for the card (e.g., “Primary Office Card”).

Step 4: Activate and Confirm

  1. Click Link Card or Activate.
  2. The system will verify the ID. Once successful, you will see a “Status: Active” confirmation next to your new card details.
  3. Your card is now ready to use at any supported terminal.

Tip: If you do not have your physical card with you, you can also use the 4Geeks mobile app as a “Smart ID” to redeem perks via NFC or QR codes.

Common Use Cases

Scenario 1: Touchless Coffee Redemption

  • Situation: You want to grab a morning coffee from the office Coffee Station without carrying your wallet.
  • Action: Simply tap your linked 4Geeks Perks Card on the reader attached to the coffee machine.
  • Result: The cost is automatically deducted from your digital points balance, and the coffee is dispensed instantly.

Scenario 2: Vending Machine Snacks

  • Situation: You need a quick snack between meetings.
  • Action: Select your item at a supported smart vending machine and tap your card.
  • Result: The system verifies your balance in real-time, authorizes the transaction, and dispenses the item, logging the transaction in your history for transparency.

Troubleshooting

Issue 1: “Invalid Card ID” Error

  • Cause: The serial number may have been mistyped, or the card is not yet registered in the company system.
  • Solution: Double-check the number on the back of the card. If the error persists, contact your HR administrator to ensure the card batch has been provisioned.

Issue 2: Card Reader Beeps but No Transaction Occurs

  • Cause: You may have insufficient points in your wallet, or the card might be inactive.
  • Solution: Log in to the 4Geeks Console to check your wallet balance. If you have enough points, verify that the card status is set to “Active” in your settings.

Issue 3: Lost or Stolen Card

  • Cause: Physical loss of the card poses a security risk to your points balance.
  • Solution: Immediately log in to the portal, navigate to Manage Cards, and select Deactivate or Report Lost for that specific card. This instantly freezes the card to prevent unauthorized usage. You can then request a replacement from your administrator.

Conclusion

Linking your RFID card to 4Geeks Perks unlocks a seamless, cash-free experience at your workplace. By following these steps, you ensure secure access to your benefits and complete visibility over your usage history.
