In a method of producing a transponder (T1, T2, T3), a substrate (1, 91) is provided. The substrate (9, 91) comprises a first area (2), a second area (3) adjacent to the first area (2), and a first electric contact (8, 98) adjacent to the second area (3). An electric device (50, 80) is placed in or on the first area (2), preferably without touching the first electric contact (8, 98). Subsequently, a conductive glue (12) is applied on the second area (3) and on the first electric contact (8, 98) so that the conductive glue (12) electrically couples the first electric contact (8, 98) with the electric device (50, 80).
