Smart Phone Card Trick demo Videos and photo walk through.
This magic trick can be performed many different ways. These videos show a few different methods but the end result is a selected card is covered with the spectator’s fingerprints and then he or she shuffles their own card back into the deck. The deck is returned to the box and a thumbprint is placed in the center of the box. Using their own NFC enabled phone, they open any camera or barcode scanner and scan their own thumbprint. Their selected card is displayed on their own smartphone and they can take the card they selected with them as a souvenir!
Their selected card
Their fingerprints on the card

There you have it!
Smart Phone Card Trick!
(Did we mention it’s not the same card every time you do the trick? It really can be ANY card you choose!)
You can repeat this trick back to back all night and you will have different results each time you perform the effect.
- Select a card
- 9 of Hearts for this example
- Place your fingerprints all over the card, trying not to smudge them!
- Shuffle your card back into the deck
- Open the card box
- Card box is empty
- Place the entire shuffled deck back into the box
- Place a clean thumb print on the box
- Using your barcode scanner or camera, scan the thumbprint
- Start at the bottom of the deck
- Work the scanner up over the fingerprint
- Once scanned, it will detect the card that has the matching fingerprint
- Displays the selected card on the spectator’s own smartphone!
- Finish by giving them the actual card and the image on their phone as a keepsake!
