Valid app is a product under Empire digitals, It was developed to reduce piracy in the fashion industry, reduce theft in the fashion industry. Imagine you buying a sneaker for $500 then someone buys the same fake sneaker at $50 in the street, Is it not hard to prove that yours is legit? Lets talk of how much a brand itself may lose in sales, value and even the image. Valid solves all these issues. Valid has two platforms, the brand system and the customer app. Brands can register with us, we do a clean check up to check if the registered brand is not trying to use other brand names for example company A produces quality products and have trademarked their products then company B wants to manufacture what company A manufactured. In this case we mark company B as Fake and we do not approve their account. Once a brand has been approved, they can now add their products, each product will have a unique qr code or barcode that can be printed anywhere on that particular item. On the customer app, once the customer purchases a certified item from the store or online, he / she can scan the product, the system then checks if the item already has an owner or not. If it does not, then they can claim the product to be under their name. Now the customer may feel a sense of ownership, no one can say he / she is wearing a fake product since the product can be scanned. After scanning a claimed product, we show you the owner's photo, name, purchase price, address if turned on, product photo, brand name. We also tried to put a security feature on your certified products that is, the app saves all your item scans just in case you have lost your sneaker and it gets scanned somewhere. You get the physical address of the scanner, phone number, names for tracking purpose. Without spending much of your time, i'm sure you are curious about our amazing product already. please just download and see it yourself.
