Customisable Retail Security Zones
With Chirp Zone, you can protect particular displays, products, or sections of your store. Each tag alarms if it leaves its designated area.
Security Challenges? Chirp Zone Has You Covered
Secure Any Retail Space
Open plan areas and concessions don’t always have clear exits, making standard perimeter security tricky. Chirp Zone makes it easy to keep any retail space secure.
Stop Theft Attempts Before They Happen
Unlike other systems, with Chirp Zone, every tag is watched continuously. An alarm sounds immediately if anyone tries to smother it or use a foil-lined bag to bypass security.
Secure Your High Value Products & Displays
Showcasing stock helps customers engage with your products, but increases risk. Chirp Zone protects displayed items without limiting the shopping experience.
Improve Your Current Security Setup
Chirp Protect works seamlessly with your existing CCTV and security systems, boosting protection while helping you get the most from your investment.
How Chirp Zone Works
Chirp Zone makes retail security simple, protecting your merchandise while keeping your store inviting. From tagging to checkout, here’s how it works:
Chirp Zone Hubs are adjustable, securing everything from small displays to full sections of your store.
Attach tamper-proof Chirp Zone tags to products. Tags suit clothing, electronics, and alarm if tampered with.
Tags stay silent while in their zones, letting customers explore products freely for a smooth shopping experience.
If a tagged item leaves its zone or is blocked, a loud alarm alerts staff immediately.
