How VisiPlus People Counting Works

Question:

How does the VisiPlus People Counting system by Checkpoint Systems work?

Solution:

VisiPlus People Counting is a bi-directional system that actively counts customers that enter

and exit your store. This system is only available for Checkpoint Evolve systems. The

hardware consists of the VisiPlus module that is integrated into the Electronic Article

Surveillance (E.A.S.) antennas that are located at the customer entrance and exit of your store.

The VisiPlus People Counting module is connected to the Evolve E.A.S. system board. The

system board is then connected to your local area network connection to access the internet.

Once our technician gets the hardware installed and the connection verified to the internet, the

account is then set up on the Checkpoint system’s servers. Data is sent automatically on a

nightly basis to the Checkpoint servers. The data is then complied and comes back to you,

the retailer, in one of two formats:

1. Complete Report

The complete report typically is formatted to be the finished product of all of the data that is

collected.

2. Raw Data

This raw data is created in a comma-delimited file that can be integrated into other data

that is collected form sales, payroll, and other related information.

These two types of reports are then automatically sent to you on a scheduled basis. Data is

bi-directional and is categorized by hour of the day and day of the week so that an

accurate picture of customer traffic is created. Many retailers do not utilize the customer

exit data; however, it is made available if you have the need to determine which entrances

or exits customers are using.

From a cost standpoint, VisiPlus is extremely cost effective to use. Loss Prevention

Systems charges you a low flat annual fee for each store that has the system. Additionally,

the fee covers the entire store location even if it has multiple entrances and exits.

High-End Jean Protection

Question:

How do I protect high-end jeans with a Checkpoint system?

Solution:

Jeans have become in many cases a high-priced item in retail stores. The fashion statement made by these jeans makes them very desirable to aspiring thieves to steal them for personal use or to resell them. To protect expensive jeans a Checkpoint hard tag can be applied to a seam on the leg of the jeans. This hard tag working in conjunction with the Checkpoint system discourages shoplifters from stealing the merchandise. These hard tags do not interfere with the customer’s ability to try on the jeans in a dressing room. The hard tags cannot be removed unless if removed by a special detaching device.

It is important to note that if you are considering a new Checkpoint system or new hard tags that you inquire into acquiring and utilizing hard tags that require a “super detacher” or an “Alpha S3” key. These two types of hard tags are much harder for a shoplifter to remove than the more traditional hard tags. It is likely that the attempted removal of the Checkpoint hard tag would result in damage to the goods. The clutch that secures the pin in a Checkpoint or Alpha hard tag is much tougher and more robust than knock-off or more traditional tags.

“Wardrobing”: Definition and Prevention

Question:

What is “Wardrobing”?

Solution: 

Wardrobing is a form of theft in which a person engages in transactions that typically involve prom, wedding, or other dresses or garments where the individual purchases, alters, and then ultimately uses the item for a special occasion or event with the intent to return it for a full refund. In most cases, the person engaging in this type of transaction will claim that the reason for the return of the merchandise is due to it containing some sort of flaw.

When you consider that Wardrobing costs a retailer more than simply the use of the garment, theft of this nature can be very costly to the retailer. Keep in mind that the retailer’s time and effort to make the sale, and finalize possible alterations along with special ordering make Wardrobing a serious problem to a retailer of any size.

The solution to this problem is the use of an Alpha Shark Tag. This product creates a deterrent by placing the Shark Tag in a very visible spot such as the bustline of the dress or garment. Returns are accepted as long as the Shark tag is in place. Once the customer removes it your store’s policy can prohibit the return of the merchandise. Shark Tags are quite inexpensive and are also easily removable by the customer with a pair of scissors. They cause absolutely no damage to the merchandise. Shark Tags are not only ideal to physical store locations, but also to online retailers who send their merchandise out and face the same Wardrobing issue of any other retailers.

Alpha Steel Grip Purposes

Question:

How does an Alpha Steel Grip help to protect my liquor, wine, and spirits inventory?

Solution: 

Steel Grip by Alpha High Theft Solutions is an Electronic Article Surveillance (E.A.S.) hard tag in the shape of a “collar” that fits around the neck of a liquor or wine bottle. This hard tag has a steel band for a collar with a clutch that secures it to the bottle to prevent tampering. It is available in several sizes to fit most inventories. If a shoplifter attempts to steal a bottle containing the Steel Grip, it will trip the alarm of the E.A.S. system at the front of the store. The system is easy to install and remove and utilizes an Alpha S3 key system.

Steel Grip also provides a “visual deterrent” so that the would-be shoplifter will think twice about stealing the item and most likely convince them to walk away. Steel Grip is designed to most likely cause the bottle to shatter before allowing the thief to remove it and steal the contents of the bottle. The Steel Grip system comes in both Radio Frequency (RF) and Acousto-Magnetic (AM) configurations.
