What Are QR Code Labels?

QR code labels are smart tags you can print and attach to any item. Unlike traditional name labels that only show a name, Cooe's QR code labels connect finders directly to you through instant notifications - all while keeping your contact information completely private.

How they work: When someone finds your item, they point their phone camera at the QR code. The code automatically opens a web page where they can notify you. You receive an email (and optional SMS) with their contact information within seconds. No app needed. No personal information exposed. Simple, fast, effective.

How to Make Your QR Code Labels Last

Printing Options:

Option 1: Waterproof Label Paper (Best)
Buy waterproof label paper from Officeworks ($10-15 per sheet). Print your QR codes directly onto the waterproof material. Survives dishwashers, rain, sun. Lasts years.

Option 2: Laminate Regular Prints (Budget)
Print on regular paper or cardstock. Laminate with clear contact paper or laminating pouches (available at $2 shops). Cut to size. Nearly as durable as waterproof paper.

Option 3: Clear Packing Tape (Quick Fix)
Print on regular paper. Cover completely with wide clear packing tape on both sides. Provides basic waterproofing for indoor items.

Application Tips:

Best Placement Locations:

School bags: Inside front pocket or on bag bottom (protected from sun/rain)
Lunch boxes: Top of lid (visible, easy to scan)
Water bottles: Bottom (less wear) or wrap around middle
Keys: Small label on keyring or key fob
Laptops: Bottom of laptop or inside laptop bag
Luggage: Inside luggage ID card holder

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use any printer?

Yes! Any home printer works - inkjet or laser. For best results with waterproof paper, use laser printers or pigment-based inkjet. Dye-based ink can smudge when wet.

What size should I print the QR codes?

Minimum 2cm x 2cm for reliable scanning. For items scanned from a distance (like luggage), use 5cm x 5cm or larger. Our generator offers multiple size options.

How long do the QR codes last?

Forever! Your QR codes never expire. The labels themselves last 1-3+ years depending on wear and printing method.

Can I update my contact information later?

Yes! Log into your Cooe account anytime to update email, phone, or notification preferences. Your existing QR codes automatically use the updated information.

What if someone scans my QR code by accident?

No worries! Scanning opens a page asking "Did you find this item?" If scanned by accident, they simply close the page. You're only notified when someone submits the found item form.

Can I use the same QR code on multiple items?

You can, but we recommend generating separate codes for different items. This helps you identify which specific item was found when you get notified.
