A Flick of the Wrist – Checkpoint Security Tags

If you have been searching for anti-shoplifting tools to stop shoplifting, you might have seen a slew of knock off Checkpoint security tags. These are tags that work with Checkpoint systems, but are not authorized Checkpoint security tags.

It might be enticing to buy these knock off tags because they are less expensive than Checkpoint security tags. What you might find out is that there is a reason why these tags are so cheap.

Authorized Checkpoint tags are designed to a different quality standard than these other tags. One of the most significant differences is in the quality of construction.

Checkpoint tags are made to be a seamless piece of molded plastic that has the EAS tag imbedded within it. Part of the success of the tag is that the EAS component cannot be accessed and subsequently disabled.

When you have an unauthorized tag, the construction quality can vary greatly. Often the tag has a seam in it that can easily be pried open. It doesn’t take specialist equipment either. A screwdriver or even a small pocketknife can pry the tag apart revealing the inner contents.

Once the tag is in two pieces, the EAS component can easily be discarded. Without the risk of sounding an alarm, your merchandise is wide open for the taking.
