See a Glouf code on a pack? A quick scan tells you whether it matches the producer who registered it. Here's how, and what to do with the result.
01How to scan
Four steps at the shelf.
You don't need an account to check a product. Just your phone and the Glouf app.
- 1
Find the Glouf code
Look for the Glouf QR code on the label or packaging.

Scan it
Hold your phone steady over the code until it reads.
