Protect your pets

It's the 21st century, and there are countless ways to keep track of your pets. But what happens when your dog gets lost? Unless you're one of the lucky ones who live in a city with a comprehensive network of stray animal services, it can be surprisingly difficult to find a missing pet.


That's why QR code tags for dogs are such a good idea. If you've ever scanned a QR code, you know how easy it is to use — just point your smartphone at the code, and it loads up whatever info is embedded in it. QR code tags for dogs ensure that your lost pets will always be found, even if they don't have microchips or other identification tags attached to their collars.

Modernize your resume

There are many different ways you can use a QR code to share your resume. The most obvious is to include a QR code on your business card, but this isn't always practical. This is where a QR code for resumes comes in handy. If you're looking for a job and need to share your resume with potential employers, the best way to do so is through a resume QR code. This allows you to keep your resume private and secure, but still makes it easy for employers to access your documents if they want more information about you.


QR codes for resumes work just like any other QR code that you might encounter. Simply scan the code with your smartphone or tablet's camera app and it will open up an email containing your resume as an attachment. QR codes for resumes make you look modern and simplify the application process.

Enhance your portfolio

QR codes are a great way to link to your portfolio. Instead of having a URL on your business card or resume, you can have a QR code linking right to your portfolio. This is especially useful if you're trying to network with potential employers or clients. When someone scans the code, they'll be taken directly to your website or social media profile page.

This is especially useful if you're networking with people who don't have time to sit down and watch your reel or read your resume. They can scan the code in two seconds and get an immediate snapshot of what kind of work you're capable of doing. Additionally, with built-in tracking and analytics, you know when your portfolio is being viewed, taking the guesswork out of networking.

Are QR codes a security risk?

Like anything that links to the internet, QR codes can be security risks if they are not used properly. However, if you follow these protocols, it reduces the risk. 
‍

  1. Ensure that the QR code links to a secure website with an SSL certificate and that it is encrypted. 
  2. Avoid using static, non-GDPR/CCPA-compliant QR codes. Flowcode’s are dynamic and strictly adhere to the most modern privacy regulations
  3. Limit the information on the QR code to what is necessary. Do not include sensitive data such as passwords or credit card numbers.
  4. Regularly update your QR codes. Malicious actors may have access to outdated versions of your code that may contain vulnerable information or links to malicious websites. 
  5. Monitor the usage of your QR code regularly to detect any suspicious activity or misuse of your code quickly before it becomes a security issue.
