Systems, methods, and/or devices for enabling configuration of NFC devices acting in a listening operation mode are disclosed. In some examples, an NFC-enabled device may select a listening mode profile from a list of listening mode profiles that define parameters for configuring the NFC-enabled device. In some aspects, the list of listening mode profiles may include a set of configuration parameters and corresponding parameter values for peer-to-peer (P2P) listen mode profile, a Type 3 Tag (T3T) listen mode profile, a Type 4A Tag (T4AT) listen mode profile, and a Type 4B Tag (T4BT) listen mode profile.
