These checkpoint tags are small enough for very small merchandise such as bikinis, shoes, hats and accessories. They offer security without being obtrusive allowing for better merchandise visibility and display-ability.
These and other checkpoint security tags are held in place with pins
Inside of the checkpoint tags are clutches that grab the pin locking it into place and they can not be pulled out. To detach the pins a special detacher must be used. This detacher is mounted to the cash wrap and allows the cashier to quickly and easily remove the security tags to be re used on other merchandise.
There are several checkpoint tags available that come in many shapes and sizes and colors. They can be used with pins only or also with a lanyard of varying lengths for looping the security tag through or onto merchandise that can not be pinned.
If you have a checkpoint security system the key is to always use genuine checkpoint tags and labels. There are cheaper copies out there mostly from Asia and there are several issues with the copy cat products. The copies can be easily broken open at the seams due to cheap manufacturing, the have a high failure to alarm rate and the copycat labels will both not deactivate but also reactivate at a 15% to 25% rate. This is a huge hassle since failed labels will cause staff to stop and address the alarms that are not shoplifting issues.
