QR Code Troubleshooting Guide

 If you are having difficulty scanning the QR code on the pet ID tag, here are some helpful tips:

  1. Enable camera access for the Global Pet Security app from your phone settings.
  2. Place the QR ID tag on a flat, stable surface in good lighting with the QR code facing upward.
  3. Hold the phone approximately 8-10 inches above the ID tag to allow the camera to focus, gradually moving the device closer to the QR code until the scan is successful.
  4. It may be necessary to repeat this process several times to ensure the camera focuses properly on the code.
  5. Once the scan is successful you will be directed to the next step of registering a pet.

    Alternatively if you are trying to register by entering the tag ID number, enter the number located below the QR code on the tag itself, including letters and -. (Note: The tag ID Number and the pet’s microchip number are not the same, see Registering A Microchip) If your tag ID number does not have a series of alpha letters please contact support@globalpetsecurity.com to receive a series of security alpha letters affiliated with each tag for security purposes. Please state

    ● First & Last name of the account holder

    ● Phone number listed on the account

    ● The numbers listed below the QR code on your tag

    ● Problem you are having with setup

    If you are unable to complete the scan or setup and you feel your tag may be damaged, please send an email to support@globalpetsecurity.com stating the above.
