You don’t need a GPS to find directions to stop shoplifting.

There are a variety of ways to stop shoplifting in retail stores.  One way is by making apprehensions, but there is a lot of liability in this and it takes trained professionals to do the job correctly.  One safe and affordable option is to utilize RF security labels and RF security tags.  RF labels are sensor tags that have a radio frequency microchip that sends a signal to the pedestals at the doors when a “live” tag is passed through them.  In shorter terms, when you have a tag that has not been deactivated at the registers it will set of the door alarms when someone tries to walk out without paying.

 One popular maker of RF security tags and RF security labels is Checkpoint.  Checkpoint security tags and Checkpoint labels are widely known in most shoplifting circles.  Thieves are much more likely to leave your product alone when it is protected by RF labels and tags then they are to steal it.  This is really what you want.  Deterrence. 

 Now don’t get me wrong.  You will still have individuals who attempt to steal product even with Checkpoint security tags attached.  Some amateurs who don’t know what they are doing will still try to steal.  Others think they are brave and will attempt to steal as well.  When this happens you can still respond.  Most states use a “Shopkeepers Act” which allows the store to stop customers when the EAS system is alarmed.  You can then check the bags, receipts, etc. to determine if you have a loss or not.  This has much less liability than simply making an accusation of theft against a random customer.
