Start Your Own Brand: QR Code Emergency Tags for Kids and Seniors

An energetic child dashes out of sight. An elderly man with dementia wanders off during his evening walk. For families, these moments can be nothing short of a nightmare.

In fact, 6 in 10 older adults with dementia will wander at least once, often without warning. And globally, thousands of children go missing every day, many never found in time. In such cases, QR code emergency tags offer a vital lifeline. With a quick scan, first responders can access emergency contact details, helping to reunite them with their loved ones swiftly and safely.

Now, with QRCodeChimp’s white label reseller program, you can turn this life-saving solution into your own brand. It’s a low-risk, high-reward business opportunity that helps families stay prepared and generates recurring revenue.

In this guide, we’ll show you exactly how to get started, no tech skills required.

Understanding this meaningful, low-risk business opportunity 

Before understanding why you should start your own brand of QR code emergency tags, it is essential to know what they are and why families need them more than ever today.

What are QR code emergency tags?

QR code emergency tags are scannable physical ID tags typically worn as bracelets, pendants, or keychains. When scanned, they primarily display the wearer’s emergency contact information, such as the phone numbers of parents, guardians, or caregivers.

Why do families need them more than ever?

Modern families are busier than ever and can’t always be around to supervise children or aging parents. That’s why QR code emergency tags are becoming essential accessories for safety-conscious households.

Here’s what makes them a winning product for your store:

❤️ ‘Silent guardians’ for the vulnerable: Children, seniors, and individuals with conditions like autism or dementia benefit the most. If they wander off or face a medical emergency, these tags help ensure quick identification and safe return.

🤓 Personal for buyers, profitable for you: End customers can personalize their emergency tags with names, photos, and special notes, adding emotional value. As a seller, you can fully brand these tags with your logo and design, and offer them in various styles—bracelets, keychains, pendants, or PVC cards—for a premium, high-margin product.

👍 Easy to update, no reprinting needed: Unlike traditional tags, customers can update the QR code’s data (like contact numbers or addresses) anytime, making the product more sustainable and future-proof.

🔒 Discreet but powerful: Unlike printed cards, the information is visible only after scanning, ensuring a layer of privacy. You can educate buyers to avoid sharing sensitive data while still maximizing utility.

A meaningful product that makes business sense

Emergency tags combine emotional value with everyday utility. Families feel safer while you unlock a recurring revenue stream through subscriptions, reorders, or bundled care kits. With strong demand from individuals and institutions alike, the market is ripe for growth.

If you’re looking to venture into this market, now’s the perfect time to join QRCodeChimp’s white label and reseller programs.

Step 3: Choose the physical tags/accessories and a trusted printing vendor.

Once you’ve created your QR code emergency tags, choose a trusted emergency tag vendor to get your batch printed and embedded on physical tags or accessories. Online printing platforms allow you to upload your QR code designs, print the tags, and get them shipped directly to your address. 

Choosing a reliable vendor eliminates the hassle, simplifies the production process, and lets you focus on other areas like branding and sales. You just have to determine which accessories you want the QR codes printed on. Wristbands and backpack tags are a popular choice for kids, while pendants or keychains are more practical for seniors. 

Step 4: Launch your branded emergency tags across online and offline platforms. 

List your QR code emergency tags on popular e-commerce platforms, such as Amazon, Etsy, eBay, and Shopify, or launch them on your digital storefront (your own website). As mentioned earlier, you can also partner with local hospitals, daycare centers, senior homes, and nonprofits to further expand your reach.
