What happens when I tap a tag?

OwnerTags contact options shown after tapping a tag

This is what you'll see after tapping a tag — simple, secure contact options. OwnerTags facilitates the connection without exposing personal details between the finder and the owner.

You’re always in control of how you choose to communicate.

Key safety tips

  • If the item was found in a public place, turn it in to security or a lost-and-found office, then use the contact buttons to let the owner know where it is.
  • If meeting the owner directly, many police and sheriff stations offer designated Safe Exchange Zones.
  • Search online for your local police department's name plus "Safe Exchange Zone" or "E-Commerce Zone".
  • Services like Safe Trade Spots can help you locate public exchange locations nearby.
  • Meet during daylight hours whenever possible.
  • Consider bringing a friend.
  • If someone refuses to meet in a public or safe location, trust your instincts and decline.

If you’re uncomfortable at any point, don’t proceed. Contact OwnerTags and we can help coordinate a safe return.

Don’t want to meet in person?

That’s okay. If you’re not comfortable meeting the owner directly, OwnerTags can help arrange a safe return.

Contact us through the contact page and we’ll coordinate a pre-paid return label sent to OwnerTags. You can drop the item off at a nearby UPS or FedEx location.

Because doing the right thing should feel safe for everyone

  • Your personal details are not shared with the owner.
  • The owner’s personal details are not shared with you.
  • Return labels generated by OwnerTags never display names or home addresses.
  • If both sides agree, limited information may be shared to complete a return.

Availability may vary during pre-release testing.

As a way of saying thanks for doing the right thing, OwnerTags plans to offer thank-you discounts on future tag purchases for verified returns of lost items.
