Luggage tags
Who likes to write their whole name and information in luggage tags so everybody can see it? Probably nobody, but we do it anyway because there is always a chance our bags will end somewhere else, and we will want them back.
Well, there is a more natural way to share your information more privately, keeping all eyes away from your personal information.
You guessed it, I know… QR codes are the solution!
Create your dynamic QR code, enter your information, print it and paste it to your luggage tag. If your bags get lost, then all need to do is to scan the code with the camera of a smartphone and that person will see your contact information and will be able to return your bag.
Special messages
Doesn’t matter the occasion, a video is always an excellent way to put your personal touch in a gift. Christmas and birthday cards are great but, what if you could add something even more special to them? That is possible with QR codes. Create your QR code, choose the video you want to reproduce in it and then printed in a small piece of paper or sticker. Then you need to paste it into the card and ta-dah! You will send the best Christmas or birthday card ever!
QR codes for the seniors
A fantastic and practical use of QR codes is the one that helps the senior and the disabled community to keep track of their medicines. QR codes help the senior population by storing the information of all of their medications on a webpage that family members keep current. When the senior goes to the doctor, they need to give the nurse the QR code which takes them to the current list of medications. This is a fantastic and useful use of QR codes for our senior population that keeps growing every day.
Keep memories alive
Another great and practical use of QR codes is to keep track of your baby’s first movements, steps, words etc. in video format.

ID tags for pets:
