What are the benefits?

Virtual hang tags enable consumers to make an informed purchase without leaving your website, which can lead to higher “add to basket” rates and reduce abandoned carts.

How does it work?

License the LYCRA® brand

Accelerate the purchase decision by licensing LYCRA® brand trademarks. If you’re interested in promoting your use of LYCRA® fiber on fabric swatches, customized swing tags, labels, packaging, POP or POS, you must complete a Trademark Licensing Agreement (TMLA).

All LYCRA® brand trademarks are protected by law and can only be licensed directly from The LYCRA Company. In most cases, the TMLA is non-exclusive and non-royalty bearing. Fabrics must be tested and certified that they contain LYCRA® fiber before you submit the TMLA.
