If they get separated in the crowd, one tap.
An Indigo KinTag is a passive NFC emergency-contact tag for the moment a child gets separated in a stadium or festival crowd. A helper taps it with any smartphone and sees who to call — no app, no battery, no GPS, no paid plan for the helper. The underlying KinTag project began the day founder Thom Hamilton lost sight of his son at a Saskatchewan Roughriders game; Indigo KinTag, made by Next to Kin, is run by that same Next to Kin team.
Regina Police Service named Next to Kin tags in Canada Day public safety guidance (June 30, 2026): “Consider getting a *Next to Kin tag for your child or family member when you arrive at the event.” That is a guidance mention, not an endorsement. Sources live on /press. The tag itself is free; keeping it active is $1/month, $10/year, or $25 once for life, plus $2.95 CAD shipping. Order at /order.
A tag that stays with them after the event, too
A tracker can tell you where a device is. It cannot help a stranger bring a person home. An Indigo KinTag answers a different question — who should this person call — whether that's in a stadium concourse, a festival crowd, or a school hallway on an ordinary Tuesday.
