Each product receives a unique QR code printed on a tamper-evident holographic sticker. When scanned by a consumer using a smartphone camera, the code is checked against our centralized database in real-time. The system immediately confirms if the product is genuine or potentially counterfeit, displaying the results along with any relevant product information.
Our solution works across virtually all physical products vulnerable to counterfeiting, including pharmaceuticals, food and beverages, cosmetics, electronics, automotive parts, apparel, and more. We offer different sticker sizes and formats to accommodate various packaging types.
We employ multiple security measures: tamper-evident holographic stickers that show visible damage if removed, unique serialized codes that can only be verified once, real-time monitoring for suspicious verification patterns, and optional additional security features like microtext or hidden markers for high-risk products.
Yes, our platform offers API integration with most enterprise systems. We provide comprehensive documentation and developer support to connect with your ERP, CRM, supply chain management, or other business systems, enabling automated code generation and verification data synchronization.
When a counterfeit is detected, our system immediately notifies your brand protection team with details including the verification location, time, and product information. You can choose to alert the consumer through the verification interface and optionally collect their contact information for follow-up. We also provide analytics to help identify counterfeit hotspots and patterns.
