How it works
The oneIDentity+ solution is a service platform to check the authenticity of product marked with the unique MAPP code. In addition, it gives manufacturers the option to provide additional Value Added Services to specific users. These can be product information (e.g. article details, fitting instructions) as well as marketing and sales related services (e.g. the connection to customer loyalty systems or the sending of an order request).
Using this solution, anyone who wants to inspect an article (i.e. customs, garage, wholesaler, manufacturer or end customer) has a simple way to check whether the code on the product is valid or not. By using a PC and its keyboard or a mobile phone with a camera, the MAPP code can be captured and sent off to the Authentication Platform (internet connection required). There the code will be checked and the result (in form of a text messages combined with a green/yellow/red traffic light) will be sent back right away.
This will provide the user with an indication whether the respective part is genuine or not. If the result is not positive the user can send a counterfeit report to the manufacturer who can then take further steps.
