Pet Touch ID tags are unique in that you have many ways to identify the pet and owner. If the user doesn't have a smartphone they can browse the website on the tag via a tablet/computer. You can also SMS or Call our hotline number, linked with the pet profile.

You can use the tags anywhere Internationally. Currently the Pet Portal is only available in English. The aim is to be multi-lingual supported in the future.

NFC is a contactless technology built into most mobile devices. This is the next generation of being able to interact with physical objects. Near Field Communication (NFC) is more convenient to access digital content through your device with a simple touch.

A QR (Quick Response) Code is a readable barcode by portable devices. QR Codes are a popular standard for fast reliable readability and greater storage capacity than standard barcodes. The Pet Touch ID QR Codes give a direct link to the owners Pet Profile.

Scanning QR codes can be performed by any smartphone with a QR reader app installed.

The Pet Touch ID Tags are designed for durability. We have different versions of tags - strong Epoxy, moulded Zinc Alloy surround with Epoxy center and Hard matt PVC tags.

There is a dedicated website portal for maintaining your pet details. https //portal.pettouchid.com

Pet Touch ID platform runs on a secured cloud platform. All owner, pet and registration information is encrypted when transmitted using SSL (Secure Socket Layer). All sensitive data stored is also encrypted.

Privacy is highly important, with Pet Touch ID the owner can control the information they wish to make available to the public via the Pet Public Webpage only. The owner can change these privacy settings anytime.

Owners can chose what information they are comfortable in sharing with the public from the Pet Public Webpage only. All other access to your information can only be done by the registered owner.

Owners have full privacy control over all Pet data. You select what you want to be visible and it is common to expose more information on demand when a pet has gone missing. Following Privacy settings are:

• Owner Name
• Owners Address
• Owners contact numbers
• Pet Name
• Pet Medical History
• Pet Behaviour
• Pet Personal information - age/breed/color/spayed or neutered
• Vet Information

The service is free. You have access to change any information 24/7 via the Pet Touch ID Portal.

No app is required. The need to install an app is seen as a barrier to access the Pet information easily.

You can access the portal on any device by opening your preferred browser and navigating to https //portal.pettouchid.com or scan/nfc tap the tag.

Registration and Tag Activation is a simple 3 step process -

• 1. Register account via https //portal.pettouchid.com (username and password)
• 2. Enter owners information (Name, Address and Phone)
• 3. Activate Tag, using the activation code on the tag and enter Pet Profile infomation.

Thats it! Attach Tag to collar and you are all set.

You can register your account and Owner information. Once you receive your tag you can complete the last step which is to activate the tag.

In the portal Summary, there is an option to 'Activate Another Tag'. This will take you through the tag activation process you went through the first time.

Once complete, you will now see 2 pets and their summary detailed in the Pet Touch ID Portal.

This feature is currently under development. The alternative is to activate another tag under the same registration and duplicate the pet information.

We will shortly have a Service Status page. Until then you can always test periodically and scan your pet ID tag to ensure you receive an email notification and GPS location.
