Vera Tags

Identity built into every product.
Proof in one tap.

Applied once, a Vera tag proves your product is genuine on every tap. A copy can't pass, and your customer needs nothing but their phone.

Connect to a certificate

Only the genuine product opens a verified certificate

Every single tag scan is verified before redirecting to the product's certificate hosted on the brand's website or provisioned Vera subdomain.

  1. Tap

    The phone reads the tag on contact. No app to install.

  2. Verify

    Vera checks the scan's credentials are genuine and single-use before redirecting to its certificate.

  3. Connect

    The certificate opens on the brand's own website, or on a provisioned Vera subdomain — whichever the platform is set to.

Trust in one tap. A channel for life.

A direct channel to the people holding your products, who get provenance, ownership transfer and lost-or-stolen reporting.Instant product and brand trust — and a direct channel to the people holding your products. Product owners get more: provenance, traceability, ownership transfer, lost-or-stolen reporting, and digital capabilities that add value across the product's lifespan.

Item-level identity

Not just the SKU. Every single item, identified.

A SKU names a product line. A Vera tag gives each item its own identity and certificate.

Questions

Questions about tags

Why not QR codes, or the labels we already use?
A printed QR code or label is the same on every unit and every scan, so a photo or a copy passes for the original. A Vera tag computes a new code on every tap with a key that can't be read off it, so a copy is recorded as an invalid scan, and you see where it happened. It can also sit inside the label you already sew in: woven labels and care tags are standard forms.
Do the tags need a battery or charging?
No. The tag draws what it needs from the phone that reads it, so there is nothing to charge, service or replace for the life of the product.
Does a customer need an app to scan one?
No. A tap opens the phone's own browser. There is nothing to install on either side of the transaction, and the same tag is also readable at range by warehouse and retail RFID.
What stops someone copying the link and passing it off as genuine?
The tag computes a new code on every read, using a key that cannot be read off it, and each read carries a counter. A copied link reproduces an old code, so it is recorded as an invalid scan rather than shown as verified.
What happens if a tag is damaged or has to be removed in a repair?
The tag is replaced and the certificate is rebound to the new one. The record is never deleted — the product keeps its whole history, and the retired tag stops resolving.
Can we get a tag made for our product rather than picking from a catalogue?
Yes. Alongside the catalogue forms, we work with brands to develop tags in speciality shapes and functions for their use case.
Does anyone at our factory need a Vera account?
No. A box of tags can be bound to a product before it ships, so every tag in it already has its certificate. Whoever fits the tag just fits it, and the certificate activates on whatever your settings say.
