Many Android phones have a built-in NFC reader. To check whether your phone has a built-in NFC reader, follow these steps from Android Authority.

1. On your Android device, tap on Settings.
2. Tap More.
3. Scroll down and you should see NFC and Android Beam options.

Also from Android Authority, if your device has NFC, the chip and Android Beam need to be activated so that you can use NFC:

1. Go to Settings > More.
2. Tap on the NFC switch to activate it. The Android Beam function will also automatically turn on.
3. If Android Beam does not automatically turn on, just tap it and select Yes to turn it on.

Smartphones’ NFC capabilities operate in tandem with Android Beam. If Android Beam is disabled, it may limit NFC’s sharing capacity.
