Opcilo ID: scan a handle to add a recipient fast

Opcilo ID is a scan-friendly receive handle. Share a QR code or link so another Opcilo user can add you as a document recipient in seconds — useful for in-person handoffs, events, and teams that exchange documents often.

What an Opcilo ID is

Every Opcilo user can share an Opcilo ID — a QR / handle that opens a receive landing page. Open the link or scan the code in the app to add that person as a document recipient without chasing emails or phone numbers first. See Opcilo ID on Capabilities.

It is a convenience for capture, not a public directory. Treat personal IDs as private handles you share intentionally — we do not encourage indexing personal IDs for discovery or scraping.

How it works

The receive-handle workflow:

  1. Share your QR or handle

    Show the Opcilo ID code in person, or send the handle link to someone who already uses Opcilo.

  2. They open or scan

    Scanning or opening the receive landing page starts the add-recipient flow in the Opcilo app — no typing contact details from scratch.

  3. You become a saved recipient

    They can seal and share documents to you later using the saved recipient entry. You still do not need a special signup just to receive seals as a non-account holder when someone sends a normal verification link.

Privacy: what a scan does and does not expose

A scan helps another user add your receive handle into their recipient list. It does not publish your documents, wallet, or seal history to whoever holds a camera. It also does not create a searchable public index of people — personal IDs are for intentional sharing, not SEO or open directories.

Practical privacy boundaries:

  • Scan/open: start an add-recipient action for that handle.
  • Does not expose: your sealed files, payment details, or workspace contents.
  • Do not encourage indexing personal IDs in public search or bulk directories.
