AccessGrid

AccessGrid, based in the US, provides an innovative API for NFC access passes that leverage MIFARE DESFire technology, enhancing security and efficiency in access control systems across various sectors. AccessGrid specializes in developing APIs that enable NFC credentialing solutions. Founded in 2024, the company is headquartered in Miami, US. In October 2025, AccessGrid secured USD 4.

4 million in Seed funding, led by Harlem Capital Partners and supported by Exceptional Capital, Spice Capital, and HF0. The focus of this investment is to expand its engineering team and enhance its mobile NFC access management system. AccessGrid offers a robust API for NFC (Near Field Communication) access passes compatible with MIFARE DESFire technology. This API allows businesses to issue NFC credentials readable by approximately 50 different DESFire-capable NFC readers.

The primary application of AccessGrid's products is to improve security and convenience in access control systems across various sectors, including corporate environments, educational institutions, and event management. Their solutions enable secure access to restricted areas, streamlining credential management and user access rights, and are marketed throughout North America and Europe. AccessGrid generates revenue by licensing its API to businesses implementing NFC access control solutions, typically in B2B relationships. Clients subscribe to the service or form partnerships to integrate the technology into their existing systems, paying for access to the API based on user numbers or transaction volume.

While specific pricing details are not available, the company focuses on maintaining lasting relationships with clients requiring reliable NFC credentialing solutions. AccessGrid intends to utilize the USD 4. 4 million raised in Seed funding to expand its engineering team and enhance its mobile NFC access credential management system. The company is actively working on upcoming products to improve its API offerings, with plans for market expansion into additional regions of North America and Europe by late 2025.
