On older iPhone models (iPhone 6 to X), NFC technology is not automatically activated. The other person must switch on the NFC technology in the control centre.

Sometimes the NFC widget has to be activated in the settings to appear in the control center. Furthermore the screen has to be on, the airplane mode has to be off and the camera has to be closed.
