ProtectCode™ Solution

For many modern businesses QR codes are a vital tool to doing global business. But the standard technology has one key flaw – QR codes can be copied and counterfeited if they do not have multiple levels of authentication and security.

Normal QR codes are open source and can be created, and therefore copied, by anyone. But, YPB’s next-generation ProtectCodes™ can go well beyond normal QR code technology. Each ProtectCode™ can have the option of two-factor overt and covert authentication, by including YPB’s MotifMicro™ or YPB Tracer technology combined with unique serialisation.

When a customer scans a MotifMicro™ QR code they are notified immediately if the product they are holding is verified or not – instant authentication that protects your brand from fakes making their way into the market.

Our bespoke ProtectCodes™ can also be scanned by any smartphone, and using our cloud-based YPB Connect Platform, your brand can encourage customer loyalty opportunities, ensuring authenticity triggers engagement.
