Can I pass data, from the received NFC data, to my iOS app using some kind of antenna or alike?

I know Apple confirmed that NFC chip is limited to Apple Pay only for at least one year, but they did not indicate whether the company would continue to limit the developers from accessing it after that time.

The thing is, we have this kind of idea... using NFC to pass the data to a receiver then this receiver will pass the data to our iPad app. I don't know if this is even possible, so any ideas is much appreciated thanks.

edit:

This is not actually a duplicate of one of my references above 'cause I just want to know if there are any hardware or something like antenna to pass the received data to my iOS app.

Actually, API and the hardware itself is my concern. After a few reads, I confirmed that there's still no docs about the API for this one.

    there is no api for interacting with the NFC reader according to your sources so i would say its not possible – Fonix Aug 11 '15 at 05:00

One possible option might be to use a separate RFID reader with BT interface. One possible source is Chafon in China, but there may be others as well.

I have not used it and don't know how easy or difficult it may be to use such a device for NFC. It might involve some coding on the phone to create the NFC protocol stack there.
