MyTags vs Sampark

A Sampark alternative that works worldwide — and hides your number

Sampark helped popularise the scan-to-contact QR tag for vehicles in India. MyTags keeps that same masked-contact idea — a finder reaches you and never sees your details — then extends it to every belonging and to buyers worldwide.

Same scan-to-contact idea — but your number is never shown.

Sampark got the core idea right

Long before "smart tags" were common, Sampark put a simple, powerful idea in front of Indian drivers: a QR code on the windshield that lets anyone reach the owner about a badly parked car, an accident or a lost vehicle — without printing a phone number for the whole street to read. That scan-to-contact model genuinely works, and it is the same model MyTags is built on.

So this is not a "we are better at everything" page. If you only want a well-known, India-first QR sticker for your car, Sampark is a fair choice and a pioneer. MyTags matters when you want that same private contact for more than a car, and when you want it to work outside India too.

The difference

The same idea, on everything you own

A car is only one thing you would hate to lose. MyTags keeps the private, scan-to-contact relay and stretches it across your whole life — from one account and one shop.

Beyond the windshield

Tag your car, but also your dog's collar, a suitcase, a child's bag, a medical card or a laptop. Read the vehicle-specific case on our car tags page, or the India guide for a car QR sticker.

Buy the way you want

Pay worldwide through DodoPayments, or in India with Razorpay, UPI or cash on delivery. The tag itself works anywhere a phone has a camera, so it does not stop at a border.

Private by default

Your number, email and name never appear to a finder — every message routes through MyTags. See exactly how the privacy-first relay keeps you hidden.

Start free, no lock-in

A digital tag is free and live instantly, with no subscription. Add a weatherproof windshield sticker or a Teslin travel tag from the shop only if you want one.

How it works

Switch over in three steps

No hardware to pair and no battery to charge. See the full walkthrough.

01

Create a free tag

Make a digital tag in the app — free and live at once. Print it, stick it on the windshield, or loop it on a collar or bag.

02

Attach it anywhere

Any phone camera opens it — no app and no signup for the finder. Add a note like "wrongly parked, please message me" so people know what to do.

03

Get the message

A push and email land the instant someone scans. Reply through MyTags — your phone number, email and name stay private the whole time.

Questions

Sampark alternative, answered

Is MyTags a good Sampark alternative?

Yes, if you want the same scan-to-contact idea beyond just vehicles and beyond India. Sampark helped popularise QR tags that let a finder reach a car owner without a phone call to a printed number. MyTags takes that masked-contact idea and applies it to pets, kids, luggage, medical cards, electronics and keys — and sells worldwide, not only in India.

Does MyTags hide my phone number the way I expect from Sampark?

Yes. With MyTags a finder never sees your phone number, email or name. They scan the QR, type a message, and every message relays through MyTags. You reply through the app, so nothing private is exchanged in either direction. That masked-contact behaviour is the core of both products.

Does MyTags work outside India?

Yes. MyTags sells worldwide through DodoPayments, and inside India you can pay with Razorpay, UPI or cash on delivery. The tag itself works anywhere a phone has a camera and an internet connection, so a scan behaves the same in another country as it does at home.

Can I use MyTags for things other than my car?

Yes, and that is the main difference. A Sampark tag is best known for vehicles. A MyTags account can tag your car, your dog, your suitcase, your child’s bag, a medical card, a laptop or your keys — all from one app and one shop, each with the same private relay.

Is there a free option, or a subscription?

A digital MyTags tag is free and live the instant you create it, with no subscription. Physical products — weatherproof windshield stickers and premium Teslin travel tags — are one-time buys in the shop. You never pay a recurring fee to keep a tag working.

Is this a GPS tracker, like some vehicle add-ons?

No. A MyTags tag is a passive QR code — no battery, no radio, nothing to charge or pair. It reports no location and cannot be used to track the person carrying it. It only speaks when a finder chooses to scan it, which is safer than a live tracker on your car.
