Or, as suggested, use the whole phone as a smart tag, placing it in "device mode" with a suitable applet that sends your whole key w/o the limit of 400 bytes. Too bad it's quite easy to reprogram the tags, IIUC, so the applet method should be preferred. IMOP, such an applet should be able to use bluetooth, too, to allow sending the key to non-nfc enabled phones (but maybe a simple file manager could be enough for this? Maybe some file managers already allow to send via NFC too)...
