FAQ’s
1. Why should I register my product with A-Tag?
Registration is the last step in authenticating your item. We have ensured your product is licensed and genuine and applied ‘state of the art technologies’. Your product and its unique identifying features have been recorded in full detail in our database. Registering your product is the final step of the authentication process and enables us to assist you in having your valuable product returned to you in the event of either loss or theft if it is recovered. We will also assist you in verifying not only that your product is genuine, but also that you own the product in the event that you want to sell it. This will afford you the best possible price for your product. A-Tag registration is similar to registration of a motor vehicle.
2. What technologies are applied to my memorabilia piece?
There are both overt and covert technologies applied to each item of memorabilia authenticated by us. We do not publicly disclose our covert methods however one feature is the unique silver foil on the front of each memorabilia item which bears the A-Tag identification number. This number is unique to your product and you must enter this number when you register with us.
