Returning clothes to an e-commerce platform is a fairly common occurrence, especially in a day and age where consumers are swaying more so toward online retail than the traditional brick-and-mortar establishment. However, returning clothes can be tricky as it is the case sometimes that the customer had already worn the garment prior to sending it back to the source. To battle this deceitful trend, a retail tech company offers a solution.
Checkpoint Systems boasts "a huge, red, and round [tag] with a warning note 'Don't Remove This Tag!'" The innovation is more commonly known by the 'R-Turn Tag,' It can be easily removed from a garment, however, once it is off, it is impossible to put it back on. As a result, consumers who are returning clothes without the red tag will be redirected.
