Checkpoint security tags … your solution to Organized Retail Crime.

One of the most common methods to stop shoplifting is to use some type of RF label.  A RF label is a radio frequency label (or RF security tags as it is more commonly known) and is applied to merchandise in order to help stop shoplifting.  The RF security labels prevent shoplifting is that when the merchandise with the RF label goes through the door without first going through the register then an alarm is generated which will draw your employees attention to the theft in progress. 

 Thieves hate this.  Shoplifters want to do their evil deeds undetected since no one really wants to go to jail.  Checkpoint security tags are some of the best that I have used.  They are durable and hard to remove so groups who steal for profit (i.e. Organized Retail Crime (ORC) rings) don’t want to waste their time trying to remove the tags and they definitely don’t want the recognition they would receive from standing in the door with an alarm going off.  The result … they go bother someone else and leave your merchandise alone.

 A few things to consider when using Checkpoint labels to make them most effective.  1) Use the right RF security tags for the right product.  You will want hard tags for clothes, handbags, shoes, etc.  Make sure you get the lanyards to go with the hard tags for the handbags and shoes as you don’t want to damage the product.  Use soft tags for package items.  2) Pick the right items to place RF labels on.  You don’t want to tag everything as it is too expensive.  Pick the high dollar / high theft items to tag.  There is no exact science to stop shoplifting so adjust as necessary to find the right solution for your location.
