Key Features

• Generate Unique Codes – Create 1 to 10,000 guaranteed unique verification codes in a single batch.

• Printable QR Tags – Generate and print professional QR code tags directly from the admin panel for your physical products.
• Frontend Verification – Simple shortcode [brandprot_verify] allows customers to verify product authenticity instantly.
• Smart Verification Logic – Automatically detects and flags first-time verifications, duplicate attempts, and invalid codes.
• Comprehensive Logging – Track all verification attempts with detailed information including IP, browser, and timestamp.

• Security First – Built with WordPress security best practices, including nonce verification and data sanitization.
• GDPR Compliant – Stores minimal data (IP address for security) with no PII collection.

How It Works

1. Generate Codes: Go to the “Generate Codes” page to create a batch of unique codes.
2. Assign to Products: Link these codes to your WooCommerce products.
3. Print Tags: Select codes and use the “Print Tags” bulk action to generate QR code labels for your packaging.
4. Distribute: Attach the codes/tags to your physical products.
5. Verify: Customers scan the QR code or enter the code on your verification page to confirm authenticity.

Verification Statuses

• Valid: The code exists and is being verified for the first time. The customer sees a success message.
• Used: The code has already been verified. The customer is warned that the product might be counterfeit or the code reused.
• Invalid: The code does not exist in the system. The customer is alerted to a potential fake product.
