The tag that works for the shopper and for the stockroom

Hang Tag Design: Designed for the Product, the Shelf and the Barcode Scanner

A hang tag does more than hold a price. It tells the shopper what the product is, tells the retailer how to stock it and has to hold up on the shelf.

Who this is for

Hang Tag Design: Who We Work For

Hang tag design suits particular sellers. We meet these six situations most often.

You are a good fit if
  • You want hang tags designed for your products
  • You can describe your products and how they are attached and sold
  • You would like the price fixed and the scope written down
  • You choose the printer and pay production separately
  • Sellers of home and gift goods

    Candles, ceramics and décor need a tag that fits.

  • Accessory and bag brands

    Tags need attachment points and detail panels.

  • Brands approaching retailers

    Stockists expect barcodes and clean tags.

  • Apparel and soft-goods labels

    Garment tags have their own conventions.

  • Handmade brands growing wholesale

    A tag lifts a handmade item to retail standard.

  • Brands refreshing their tags

    Old tags no longer match the range.

Problems solved

Why Hang Tags Fail on the Shelf

A tag that works in a mock-up can fail in the shop. These six problems are the ones we prevent.

  1. The attachment does not suit the item.

    String on a glass jar, a loop on a candle lid.

  2. The barcode will not scan.

    The quiet zone or contrast is wrong.

  3. There is no wholesale panel.

    SKU and codes are missing for stockists.

  4. The shape has no cut line.

    A custom shape cannot be die-cut.

  5. Details are too small.

    Product facts print unreadably.

  6. Tags do not match the product.

    The tag looks like a different brand.

What Protects Your Store and Your Budget During Hang Tag / Swing Tag Design

Doing this work touches your store, your brand and your budget, so these six habits come with every retail product tags package.

Retail details are yours to confirm

We plan space for barcodes, SKUs and product facts, but the content and legal requirements for your category and market, and any retailer-specific rules, are yours to confirm.

Least access needed

We ask only for the access your retail product tags needs, through Shopify's own sharing tools where a store is involved, and remove it when we finish.

Working files are yours

Final and working files for your retail product tags are handed over, so another person could use them later.

Checked before you look

Every retail product tags item is checked against the brief first, so your review covers taste and wording, not faults.

No promised sales

We make retail product tags to help shoppers decide, and we never promise revenue, rankings or reach.

Rights respected

We only use images, fonts, music and text you own or that are properly licensed in your retail product tags, and we say which.
