OwnerTags

Found an item with an OwnerTags tag?

OwnerTags makes it easier for good people to do the right thing — secure, private contact with the owner.

Is this safe?

  • Privacy-first by design — for both you and the owner
  • Your phone number is never shared
  • Your personal email stays private
  • You choose whether to email or call
  • Each contact session is time-limited

Need help? You can always use the Tag Support buttons for assistance.

What happens when I tap a tag?

Tapping the tag opens a secure page for that specific item. From there, you’ll see simple options to contact the owner and help get the item returned.

You’re never required to meet in person, and you’re always in control of how you choose to communicate.

Why OwnerTags work this way

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.
