SmartTag is a leader in companion animal identification, founded in 2009. We work with thousands of animal shelters and rescue groups across the US and CANADA in offering the best companion animal identification for all adopted and reclaimed animals.
SmartTag offers microchips, various microchip scanners, pet licensing, and ID tag programs. We also manufacture custom logo ID tags and provide engraving machines for groups that would like a personalized form of identification for each adopted pet.
All SmartTag microchips are ISO and ICAR certified universal microchips, the international standard read by all universal scanners. We offer several types of microchips: Data and Mini Data, Less Waste in Standard and Mini’s and the Mini Temperature microchips.
SmartTag microchips include a free lifetime registration and without (lower cost), a metal engravable ID tag with QR code, Lost Pet “Amber” alerts, free information updates for the life of each animal and many other recovery protection services. We offer deep volume discounts and are integrated with most shelter software’s, inquire for more details.
SmartTag Microchip Benefits
The SmartTag Microchip offers the best value compared to any other microchip.
While SmartTag offers the best technology in microchips today and the most comprehensive pet protection services, we can also compete with the best pricing available on the market.
Based on large volumes, we can offer our microchips for as low as $4.75 each, and that includes the lifetime registration!
SmartTag operates a USA based 24/7 live call center with agents awaiting your calls for any lost/found pet situations or questions.
SmartTag is partnered with the American Animal Hospital Association (AAHA) and part of the national USA microchip database. Any SmartTag microchip or other brand microchip that is registered with SmartTag is searched for in AAHA Microchip Lookup Tool will show our contact information to get the lost or found pet home and reunited with their pet parents as quickly as possible.
From your SmartTag account page, print at your location or order color lost pet posters.
If the unfortunate event your pet is ever lost, SmartTag Lost Pet Recovery Agents will call all of the Animal Shelter and Rescue Groups in a 25-50 mile radius (depending on region) of your pet’s last known location to locate your pet.
If your pet has not yet been found, our Recovery Agents alert all local shelters to your missing pet to help get the recovery process started.
SmartTag offers a $200 reward for any animal that has been marked as “lost” on www.IDtag.com or through our call center when an agent updates the animal’s status to “lost.” To qualify for the reward, the animal must be found by a third party (not the owner), who must then call our Live Lost and Found call center to report the animal as found. The call will connect the finder with the owner to facilitate the reunion. SmartTag receives confirmation of the reunion by record by phone. The owners of the pet must then fill out a reward payout request along with a testimonial describing the reuniting process. Both documents, reward payout request and testimonial, must be sent via email to microchip@IDtag.com for review. Upon approval, a check for $200 will then be mailed to the finder within 7 business days.
Lost Pet “Amber” Alerts can be sent in any location in all of North America. In the event your pet is lost, SmartTag sends alerts to all the animal shelter, rescue groups, vets, breeders, and animal search activists that have requested to be on our lost pet alert lists for their area.
All Microchip and SmartTag ID#s are searchable in Google and will lead directly to your pet’s profile.
Each SmartTag Microchip includes a metal collar ID tag, something no other microchip includes for free.
SmartTag also provides free metal replacement ID tags to all SmartTag Microchip customers with Platinum Protection.
*Shipping and Handling fee applies.
