The Province of Ontario released the business app, Verify Ontario, on Thursday, which will allow business to scan people’s certificates and give them a clear indication on if the person is cleared to enter.
After scanning a QR code, the business or organization will see either a green checkmark (meets vaccine requirements), a red X (for an invalid certificate) or they will see a yellow warning (the QR code cannot be read).
The business app will also be able to scan government issued QR codes from British Columbia and Québec.
Eventually nation-wide capabilities will be added to the provincial app as things are developed.
