Cerfinity vs rfxcel Serialization Software

Cerfinity authenticates products and records their custody through a provenance record linked to tamper-evident seals with unique cryptographic identities. A customer can check an item by tapping an NFC seal or scanning a QR code without downloading an app or creating an account. The seal can record an irreversible change when packaging is opened, and time-stamped entries can document custody at authorized checkpoints such as producers, distributors, logistics partners, and retailers. Authentication options include NFC, covert micro-mark authentication, and QR verification. Brands can access supply-chain views and counterfeit-concentration data. Listed sectors include spirits and wine, luxury fashion, graded collectibles, specialty food, pharmaceuticals, beauty, and electronics. The pharmaceutical offering includes serialization support, cold-chain monitoring integration, track-and-trace, recall management, and pharmacy-system integration. Cerfinity says its records can support EU Digital Product Passport, EUDR, and FSMA Rule 204 traceability needs. A qualifying brand can use a 30-day pilot with 500 certificates and white-glove onboarding. The Founding Partner plan is $249 a month; NFC seals are billed separately by unit.

rfxcel Serialization Software is a paid web application for assigning and tracking serial numbers on saleable products, with an emphasis on Life Sciences supply chains. Serialization links each unit’s unique number to information such as origin, batch number, and expiration date. Users can assign serial and lot numbers to inbound or outbound products, using numeric, alphanumeric, sequential, random, hexadecimal, or random-probability formats. Numbers can be encoded as barcodes, data matrices, or RFID tag URIs. Verification checks detect duplicates, validate formats and packing levels, and confirm whether received numbers were previously allocated. The system supports pallet serialization, aggregation, serial verification, and regulatory reporting. It stores transaction histories, including voided and reprocessed events, and audits master-data changes. rfxcel says it connects to thousands of Life Sciences trading partners and supports required data formats. Pricing is on request.
