Frequently Asked Questions

Will the QR code work if the hat gets wet or dirty?
Yes! QR codes are surprisingly resilient. We recommend printing on waterproof sticker paper or laminating regular prints. Even if parts get dirty, the code usually still scans. For best results, place the label inside the hat band where it's protected.
Where should I put the QR code label on a school hat?
The best spot is inside the hat band or under the brim where it's hidden from view but easy to find when checking for identification. This keeps your child's privacy protected while making it easy for teachers or office staff to scan.
Is my contact information visible on the QR code?
No! Your email and phone number are never visible on the QR code. The label only contains a unique ID. When someone scans it, they see a form to report finding the hat. Only after they submit their details do you receive a notification with their contact information.
How much does this cost?
Cooe is 100% free forever. Generate unlimited QR codes at no cost. No subscriptions, no hidden fees, no trial that expires. Just free labels for all your child's belongings.
Can I use the same QR code for multiple hats?
While you technically could, we recommend using a unique QR code for each hat. This makes it easier to identify which specific hat was found (e.g., "Summer hat" vs "Winter beanie"). Since codes are free and unlimited, there's no reason not to use separate ones! Tip: You can also label your school uniform, library bag, and swimming bag while you're at it.
What if my child changes schools?
No problem! The QR code is linked to your email/phone, not to a specific school. As long as you use the same contact details, the code will continue working at any school. You can update the item description in your account if needed.
