ABOUT US
RFID specialists putting the keys you already own back in your hands.
OUR STORY
Fobber launched in 2020 with a simple aim. To challenge an industry that had become increasingly monopolistic and detrimental to consumers. As RFID access control spread across the UK's apartment buildings, commercial spaces and vehicles, the companies, landlords, and agencies managing those properties had little incentive to keep key copies and replacements fair or affordable, and so we set out to be the alternative.
Founded by Jacob Riggs, a British ethical hacker, we are run by a team of experienced security researchers, and that depth of expertise in RFID technology is what powers the services we provide. From proprietary cloning techniques to a streamlined order-to-delivery process and multi-point quality assurance testing, we pay close attention to every key before it ships. We are not built on high margins, but on volume and customer satisfaction, and we strive to remain the best in the market when it comes to understanding real-world RFID systems.

A note from the Founder
I launched Fobber to solve a problem I'd observed developing throughout urbanised areas from the rapid rise of sky-rise apartments, commercial properties, and electric smart cars that commonly rely on RFID door access control systems managed by third parties.
Too often, these third parties represent greedy property management and automotive agencies that capitalise on the fact that their customers sometimes need key fobs copied or replaced simply to access their own properties. I watched customers feel pressured into accepting key copying and replacement services through contracted 'lock-in' relationships that command extortionate prices - a problem compounded by the proprietary nature of RFID technology.
Fobber was my answer to that problem - a service built to put the keys people already own back in their hands.
