For vehicles, helmets and the things you carry
Let people contact you about your car, your helmet or your bag — without revealing your phone number.
The QR is free. The sticker is optional.
Stick a Scanblip QR on your car, your helmet or your suitcase. Anyone who needs you — a blocked driver, a neighbour who saw your lights on, someone who found your bag on a train — scans it and sends you an alert. You get an email. They never see your number, and you never see theirs.
Create my free QRI scanned a QR
Free* for the basics. No app to install.
*The QR, the alerts and the safety controls cost nothing, and always will. A printed sticker is a paid optional extra.
- Your number is never shown
- Any phone camera scans it
- Alerts arrive by email
Five steps
How it works
From an empty account to a code on the thing itself, without an app, a password or a phone number changing hands.
Create your free QR.
Sign in with your email, register your thing, and your permanent QR is ready to download in about two minutes. To switch it on, verify your own WhatsApp number once — one free message, never shown to anyone, and not asked again for a year.
Print it yourself.
Download the QR as PNG or SVG, or the printable kit, and print it at home or at any print shop. A ready-made weatherproof one is an optional extra you can buy instead.
Stick it on the thing.
On a car: the outside, on painted metal or the number-plate surround. On a helmet: the shell, where a first responder will look. On a bag or a laptop: anywhere flat a phone camera can see, with the white margin around the code left intact.
People scan it when they need to alert you.
They pick a reason — blocking, lights on, damage, emergency — and can add a short message. They verify their email and WhatsApp first, so nobody can spam you anonymously.
You receive the alert privately.
An email with the reason and the message. No phone numbers change hands in either direction.
The promise, drawn
What each side sees
Two people, one message, and no contact detail crossing between them. This is the whole of it.
What a scanner sees
What it is, a nickname only if you choose to show it, your optional note, and the list of reasons.
Never your name, number, email or address.
What you see
The reason, the message, the time and a visitor label like “Visitor #7K2Q”. You can block a visitor with one tap.
Never the visitor’s name, number or email.
What it costs
What costs nothing, and what is optional
The QR is free. The sticker is optional.

Why it stays quiet
Why we verify every scanner
A code on a parked car is an open channel unless somebody stands behind every message. Verification is what does that.
A real person, once
Verified email and WhatsApp. Repeat scanners are not asked again for a year, so a second alert takes seconds.
Limits that hold
Limits on how many alerts one person can send, and to how many owners.
One tap to stop someone
Block anyone with one tap; report abuse; we review it. They are never told.
Before you start
Common questions
Is it really free?
Yes. Creating an account, verifying your email and WhatsApp, adding up to five things, generating and downloading your QR, and receiving alerts are free. There is no paid tier for the basics and we do not plan one.
What if someone keeps sending alerts?
Block them with one tap from the alert. They are not told, and they cannot reach any of your vehicles. You can also report the alert and we will review it.
What does the person who scans see about me?
Only the vehicle type and, if you choose to show them, a nickname, a colour and a short note. Never your name, number, email address, home address or number plate.
Why do scanners have to verify? Won't that stop people from alerting me?
Anonymous alerts would make your QR an open channel for anyone walking past. A first-time scanner spends about two minutes on it; after that it takes seconds. A verified alert is worth more than an anonymous one.
Why do I have to verify my WhatsApp number?
Two reasons. It keeps spammers out, because every alert is tied to a real, verified person. And it lets us act on abuse reports. Your number is never shown to anyone.
How do alerts reach me?
By email from Scanblip. The email carries the reason and the message. Every alert is also in your inbox on this site.
Can I stop alerts for a while?
Yes. Pause the QR, mute a reason, or mute a vehicle. Emergency alerts stay on while a QR is active.
