Frequently Asked Questions - General

What is beeperlink?

Beeperlink is an innovative Emergency Contact Service designed to anonymously and securely notify you when your belongings require assistance.
Using a simple QR tag system, Beeperlink allows anyone to leave a message linked to one of your items, without the need for mobile apps, tracking, or batteries.
Here are some use cases:

  • Parked Cars: Receive notifications about issues such as poor parking, open windows, lights left on, or damage.
  • Lost Items: Retrieve lost keys, wallets, smartphones, children’s items, etc.
  • Mixed-up Luggage: Quickly resolve situations where luggage gets mixed up.
  • Real Estate: Stay informed about potential problems such as leaks, break-ins, or fire alarms in your property.

How does beeperlink work?

Think of Beeperlink as an alert contact for your belongings, operating anonymously and securely. Here's how it works:

  • You purchase special stickers or keychains with a QR code, called Beeperlink Tags.
  • You activate the tag using your phone's camera and give it a name.
  • You attach the tag to your item, such as your phone, keys, wallet, passport, backpack, car, etc.
  • If you lose the item or your car requires urgent attention, the finder simply scans the QR code on the tag and sends you a message. Beeperlink securely redirects this message directly to your email or SMS.
  • The tag does not contain any personal data, ensuring your privacy and security.

How effective is beeperlink?

Beeperlink tags are a great way to protect your belongings from loss and make it easier to get in touch with honest finders. According to statistics, more than 80% of lost items tagged with beeperlink are returned to the owners on the same day.

Is it safe for personal data?

The beeperlink Tag does not contain personal information. Personal data is also not required to contact the tag owner. Personal data is not shared and tracking technology is not used.

Beeperlink tags operate on the basis of an online service that ensures the security of personal data in accordance with applicable laws, such as the GDPR.

Beeperlink stickers and keychains do not disclose any personal information of the tag owner, such as name, phone number or email address. In this way, the personal data of the tag owner is protected against unauthorized access and use.

How much does beeperlink cost?

Basic functionality (tariff plan 'Basic') is always included in the price tag. With the 'Basic' tariff plan, all you need to do is buy and activate the Beeperlink Tag, and each message will be forwarded to the email address provided during registration in the Beeperlink portal. No hidden costs.

If you need more features for your Beeperlink tags, we offer an additional SMS forwarding service. With this service, in addition to the basic functionality, you will be able to configure SMS forwarding to any mobile phone number worldwide for each of your tags. Additionally, you can assign an extra email address to each tag, where messages will also be forwarded. This feature is perfect when you connect tags for your entire family or company to a single Beeperlink account.
