Instructions Included- Alpha Shark Tag

Using the Alpha Shark Tag is an effective way to prevent “wardrobing” of your clothes. That means that customers have a decreased ability to purchase an item or entire outfit with the intention of wearing once and then returning the items. This is not designed to prevent shoplifting. This is designed specifically with wardrobing in mind.

This small, red plastic tag is tamper evident and eliminates the guesswork an employee has to do at the point of return. If the Alpha Shark Tag is still on and is 100% intact, the return is good. 

The issue is in how to educate your customers so they know what they can and cannot do. The customers won’t have any idea what the tag is designed for. If they do not have any education, you can create customer issues. Legitimate customers may automatically take the tag off when they get home, not knowing that it needs to stay on. If they later change their mind and return the item, you wouldn’t want a declined return from a customer who honestly had not worn the item.

The easiest solution is to attach a hangtag to the pin of the Alpha Shark tag. The tag should have a copy of the store’s return policy on one side, and the removal instructions on the back. Alpha Security provides an example of such a tag to be used to avoid possible confusion and customer complaints.
