HOW SMARTEFACT WORKS
Smartefact is an Art digital Identity platform that leverages blockchain technologies and NFC to enable art galleries, museums, auction houses, experts, collectors and more... to authenticate artwork and manage collections. It is the first service of its kind using the secure Emer blockchain and as well as our advanced protocol EmerCert, which we created to establish a robust chain of trust between the players.

How to register an artwork?
Step 1
Request the registration of an artwork
Click here to request the registration of an artwork. Our team will then contact you to verify your credentials in relation to the artwork.
Step 2
Verified issuer submits artwork
Once your credentials have been verified and validated, you will receive access to upload your artwork using the Smartefact platform.
Step 3
Artwork is registered in blockchain
Once the artwork and the issuer are registered, they will appear in both the Smartefact App and in independent Emer blockchain explorers.
Step 4
Apply NFC tag to physical artwork
For physical artworks such as painting, a unique NFC tag is created for that artwork and is sent to the issuer. Scanning that unique NFC tag will verify the authenticity of the records for that artwork and issuer, which can be searched and found in the Smartefact system. Digital Artworks do not have NFC tags obviously, but printed photographs of a digital artwork can be registered as a physical artwork and receive a unique identifier NFC tag.
Step 5
Download the Mobile App
The mobile App is used to scan the NFC tag on the artwork and guarantee the autenticity of the records.
