Questions

Can we use SwifTAG tags without the platform?

Yes. The reader types each tag's ID into the software you already use, like a keyboard.

What does a tag carry?

A permanent 15-digit ID, injected once. In the platform, scanning it opens that animal's record.

Which sizes and packs are there?

The shop lists each tag size, the packs and the readers, with their prices.

Do you have temperature tags?

SwifTAG+ tags read temperature at the tag site. Ask us about an order and about your intended use.
