Each Checko Tag has a validity period as asked for by the brand. After that only the brand can request further extention, so you may contact your brand. Once extension is granted, the tag will become active again.
Offline mode means you can scan the product tag even without an internet connection. However, the authenticity result will be displayed once your device reconnects to the internet, as the verification process requires secure communication with our servers.
To check this result later, simply open the app and tap on the History button — it appears right at the top when you launch the app. Here, you can view all your past scans, including those verified after reconnecting to the internet.
