Bontag offers a new and clever lost-and-found system that gives consumers some peace of mind when devices or wearables are not in their possession. Utilizing an innovative tagging and labeling scheme, the process relies on a [unique ID code](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/golden-tag) that contains the message "If found, go to Bontag.com REWARD GIVEN." When an item is reported found, the system immediately calls, texts or e-mails the owner.

Each tag in the lost-and-found system is self-adhesive and comes in a variety of shapes and sizes, so it can fit on pretty much anything — from computers and [iPods](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ipod-classic-iphone-17-case) to glass frames and watches. Bontag has done a great job in creating an aesthetically-friendly label design and consumers have the option to choose from over 500 pictures and patterns.
