Why a QR luggage tag?

No personal info exposed

Unlike a handwritten label, your name and number aren't visible to everyone who walks past.

Works on any phone

No app needed. The finder just points their camera at the QR code — iPhone or Android.

Instant contact

The finder reaches you in seconds through anonymous chat, WhatsApp, or whatever you've set up.

No battery, no subscription

A printed QR tag costs nothing to maintain. It just works — for years.

How to make your tag

Five minutes from start to finished tag.

Download your tag

If you don't have a QR code yet, it's free and takes 30 seconds.

1
Go to pingable.me and sign in (Google or email — free).
2
Create a QR code and choose how people can contact you (anonymous chat, WhatsApp, email, or any link).
3
On the QR code page, select Printable Luggage Tag from the download dropdown, then tap Download.

Print and assemble

4
Print the downloaded image on thick card stock (200gsm or heavier). Standard paper works in a pinch but won't last.
5
Cut around the tag outline. The tag is credit-card sized (85.6 × 54mm) for easy trimming.
6
Laminate it for weather protection. A self-seal laminating pouch (no machine needed) works perfectly and costs pennies.
7
Punch a hole at the top and thread a luggage strap, keyring, or cable tie through it. Attach to your bag.

Tips for best results

  • Use the thickest card stock your printer can handle — 200gsm or above gives the best durability.
  • Laminating makes the tag waterproof and far more durable. Self-seal pouches are cheap and need no machine.
  • Print at "actual size" or "100%" — don't let your printer scale it to fit the page.
  • Test the QR code after printing. Point your phone camera at it to make sure it scans cleanly.
  • Make a spare — print two while you're at it, one for your bag and one for your backpack.
