I keep getting "HTTP page not found error"?

Usually this is due to poor connectivity from your service provider to our server, and is often transient. Please try to access the web site later or let us know on support@yellowtag.com


What is 'activation' of a Yellowtag?

Each Yellowtag carries a unique email address / I.D number. This identifier needs to be activated to enable Yellowtag to forward your email / telephone / SMS text messages. Remember, you have to register just once and then you can activate any number of Yellowtag email addresses in your portfolio.


Where do I look for the keycode?

To make sure that 'activation' is completed in an authorised manner, each Yellowtag product carries a keycode. The Keycode is generally printed in RED or clearly labelled and looks like HJBRT. The keycode becomes invalid after activation of your Yellowtag and cannot be used again.

How do I know that my Yellowtag is correctly activated?

When correctly activated, the tag will show in your portfolio with the expiry date.


I have not received my password?

The password email is sent out from our server within a few seconds and reaches most users within a minute. Failure to receive the password email is nearly always due to typo errors in the user's email address or local Spam filter settings. PLEASE RE-CHECK if you have registered the correct email address, or if our login email has been rejected by your Spam filter. Any further problems ? let us know on support@yellowtag.com.


I cannot login to my account (My Portfolio)?

Please make sure you are using your email registered with us to login. If you are unsure about the password, you can ask us to resend it to you by going to the login page and clicking 'send password'. If you need to contact us please email us on support@yellowtag.com with the following information:

  • Any error message that you are getting
  • Your Operating system (Windows Xp etc)
  • Your Browser and version (Internet Explorer 5.5 etc)

All my AssetGuard labels have the same ID number?

Some Yellowtag sets (e.g. AssetGuard) can have many labels with a common email address or ID number printed on all of them.

You only need to activate the set once for protecting multiple items. Once you've activated the set, just peel and apply labels to each item.


Can I activate future Yellowtags without having to register again?

Registration is a 'one-time' requirement. Once you have registered and created your portfolio, you simply activate as many Yellowtags as and when required.


No access to my email or mobile phone?

A copy of your incoming messages is stored in your portfolio. Just access this web site, login and then click on the 'Messages' button on the top bar. Your incoming messages are stored for 60 days. Also you can select a second person to receive your email and SMS text messages.


Can I change my personal details?

Changes to your email addresses, phone numbers and password can be made from the portfolio page after you've logged in.


I've lost a Yellow tagged item?

LET US KNOW! You are normally notified by our automated service. However If your Yellowtag has expired, was not correctly activated or the sender has made a typo error you will not receive the messages. Please email us on support@yellowtag.com if you think that might be the case. We will make a note of your request and notify you when your item is reported to us.


Renewal charges?

All Yellowtag products are pre-paid and include subscription to the service for a term that varies from 6 months to 5 years depending on the product. At the end of subscription term, renewal is offered at 50% of the published online selling price. For example, renewal of a PetGuard currently costs UK £5.50 for a period of 1 year.
