Send digital receipts via NFC

I see there are options to send digital receipts via email or text message to customers and there is also an option for customers to repeatedly receive digital receipts if they use the same credit card again (which is on file) - which sounds good https://www.clover.com/help/get-customers-to-follow-you/. I wonder if it is possible to send receipts via the NFC interface to an Android or iOS smartphone, if the customer would have a special app for this service. I have read https://docs.clover.com/docs/building-with-android-nfc but I am not really acquainted with NFC and would like to know if it is technically possible? Can the Clover device send the signals or is a separate NFC sender device necessary? Why is there no Clover provided app that serves this purpose as it would help merchants to avoid printing receipts? I did not find anything like this on the app market

Thanks for the question. Unfortunately we currently do not support receipts via NFC. Clover devices do not support NFC Beam so transferring receipts is not really feasible.
