Key Partner:      Vanguard ID Systems

When customers forget to bring their loyalty cards to your store, they can miss out on discounts and frequent shopper points—and you miss valuable information about their spending habits. Key Tags attach to a key ring, so they’re easily accessible at POS.

High-quality Key Tags from Vanguard ID Systems offer outstanding durability and excellent scanning rates. They’ll look and scan like new for years.

Vanguard Key Tags are constructed of a highly durable polyester laminate with a printed Teslin® core. Unlike PVC tags, the sturdy 30-mil key tags will not crack or peel apart. Key Tags are waterproof. If bar codes are desired they are protected by a crystal clear polyester lamination, so bar code won’tt scratch off.

We can customize Key Tags with your logo—so your customers, their friends and family see your company name, logo and message on a daily basis.

Key Tags are available in a variety of sizes and shapes, and they can be ordered with the DataGuard Security System™, Vanguard’s patented attached label, for maximum convenience and 100-percent data integrity.
