Why Retailers Trust Chirp Protect

Protected Against Illegal Magnet Detachers
The Wrap Tag is built to be extremely robust, giving retailers reliable protection against even the most determined thieves. Its design prevents tampering and ensures products stay secure until the point of purchase.
- Cannot be removed with a magnet or hook – only a dedicated Chirp Protect deactivator will release it.
- Any attempt to force or cut the tag triggers an instant alarm, stopping thieves in their tracks.

Seamless Integration with Store Security Systems
When used with the Chirp ITS Box, the Wrap Tag links directly to your existing security hardware to create a stronger, joined-up defence. Key benefits include:
- CCTV integration – alarms from the Wrap Tag automatically flag footage, making it quick and easy to locate and review incidents.
- Instant staff alerts – alarms are sent directly to headsets or radios, allowing your team to react in real time.
- Comprehensive protection – combines product-level security with live staff response and clear video evidence for a complete solution.

Works with Chirp and Traditional EAS Systems
The Chirp Protect Wrap Tag is fully compatible with Chirp Edge for standalone protection without gates or panels.
But it also works with existing RF and AM antenna system installations.
- Ideal for enhancing or expanding your current EAS setup without full replacement
- A future-proof solution that supports phased upgrades and mixed environments

A Video Overview of the Wrap Tag
The Chirp Protect Wrap Tag is a versatile, tamper-proof security tag designed to protect boxed products. Using a strong cable that wraps tightly around the product, the tag locks in place and immediately activates its self-alarming function. If a thief attempts to cut, loosen, or forcibly remove it, the Wrap Tag will trigger an audible alarm, drawing attention and deterring theft.
Its built-in alarm means protection continues even outside the store, ensuring thieves cannot simply walk away unnoticed. With no magnet deactivation, the tag cannot be silenced by common thief tools, offering stronger, more reliable protection. Easy to apply, reuse, and reset by staff, the Wrap Tag delivers robust product security while maintaining a smooth customer experience at the checkout.
The Wrap Tag works seamlessly as part of a standalone Chirp Edge setup and is also fully compatible with RF and AM EAS systems, giving retailers flexible integration options.
