I tried a similar scenario: The phone has a rfid reader built in, so I put the rfid tag on the charger and tried letting the phone read it, but quickly discovered that android can’t/wont read rfid tags unless the phone is unlocked, which defeated the elegance of the solution. I hadn’t considered buying a standalone reader and attaching the tag to the phones, that sounds a lot more complicated.
