FAQ
About the network
How many products has BirdHaus authenticated?
The BirdHaus authentication platform, Scanacart, has issued 13,613,521 NFC tags. Consumers have tapped those tags 9,162,242 times and run 2,939,248 label-code checks. 10,328,300 verification checks carry a location, spread across 46 countries. The network map on bybirdhaus.com shows where those checks happened.
What does a product scan tell a brand?
Each scan records the product, the time and the approximate location. Brands use that to see where products sell, notice grey-market diversion, catch cloned tags, which are shut off automatically, and reach customers with rewards. BirdHaus shows this on a map and in a brand portal.
