Frequently Asked Questions
How is RFID anti-theft different from traditional EAS systems?
Unlike traditional EAS gates that only detect tags, RFID anti-theft systems identify the exact product and provide real-time data like SKU, item name, and time of exit—improving both security and inventory visibility.
Where is the RFID reader installed?
The RFID overhead reader is discreetly mounted above the store exit. This keeps the entrance open and aesthetically clean, which is especially valuable for premium retail environments.
Does it trigger alerts only on unpaid items?
Yes. The system integrates with your POS. Only unpaid items that haven’t been checked out will trigger an alert when detected by the overhead reader.
Will RFID interfere with my store layout or design?
Not at all. Overhead readers eliminate the need for bulky gates, offering a sleek, invisible anti-theft solution that blends perfectly with modern store aesthetics.
Is it suitable for all types of retail stores?
Absolutely. Our RFID anti-theft solution is ideal for apparel, electronics, cosmetics, luxury goods, and specialty retail stores.
Can RFID help reduce shrinkage?
Yes. By accurately tracking inventory movement and catching unpaid exits in real time, it helps reduce shrinkage and improves accountability.
What happens after a theft is detected?
The system logs the event with product details, timestamp, and exit data. It can also trigger alarms or notifications to store personnel based on configuration.
