01 Baggage carousel
At the airport
The most common place things go missing: whoever grabs the wrong suitcase or finds one left standing scans and reports it — and your customer knows within seconds.

The black suitcase that finds its way home.
Luggage is the product category most often mixed up and lost — and it looks like a thousand others. A factory-fitted contact function turns a found item into a return: the finder scans at the baggage carousel, on the train or in the hotel, and your customer is reached anonymously. A feature that sets your product apart on the shelf.

The industry's problem
Lost-property lottery instead of a return.
A lost suitcase today means: a lost-property form, an airline hold queue, hoping. The honest finder at the baggage carousel would return it — but doesn't know whose it is. A handwritten name tag has long since torn off, and a Bluetooth tracker only helps the owner, not the finder.
A factory-fitted contact function closes exactly this gap: the finder scans the code on the luggage, leaves a quick message — and your customer immediately learns where their suitcase is, without revealing any contact details. The lost-property lottery becomes a single scan.
- A return instead of lost property — the finder is enabled to act
- No loose name tag, no visible address
- “Lost & found included” as a selling point on the packaging
Where the code sits
Integrated where luggage gets lost.

02 Rail & bus
In the train compartment
Two minutes after getting off, the fellow passenger spots the bag. One scan is enough and the return is under way before the luggage ends up in lost property.
-
03 Hotel
In the hotel & taxi
Left behind at reception or in the taxi: the finder reaches your customer directly — and the return carries your brand.
Frequently asked questions
Lost & found for luggage.
How do we integrate this into our suitcases?
QR runs alongside your existing labelling (zero hardware cost); NFC is supplied ready-to-fit as a tag and worked into a luggage tag or the lining. No new tooling, no changes to production.
Why not just include a Bluetooth tracker?
A tracker locates the item for its owner but doesn't enable the finder at the baggage carousel to act — and it costs double-digit amounts plus a battery. The contact function costs cents, works worldwide without an app and gives the finder the short way back. The two aren't mutually exclusive.
Do our customers' data stay protected?
Yes. The finder never sees a name, number or address — they can only leave a message, which is relayed anonymously. GDPR-compliant, servers in Germany and the EU.
Does it pay off for our product line?
At cents per unit, usually even at a low return rate. The lost & found calculator shows the brand value of returns against the integration cost.
