Easily register bikes with 529 Garage at checkout

While you may capture a bike’s serial number in your sales system, that information is only available to the store. If a bike is stolen, the community can’t use it to assist in a recovery. With the 529 Garage, users can manage their registration and have all the information to start an alert if it’s ever needed, regardless of the time of the day. 529 Garage integrates with Lightspeed, Vend and Ascend POS to make registering a bike as easy as just a couple of clicks. Use a different POS system? Let us know and we’ll do our best to come up with a solution for you.

Shield your customer’s bikes against theft

529 Garage Shield kits are a great add-on item for all bike sales. The 529 Shield not only makes it easier to look up a bike to locate its owner, but also acts as a deterrent to thieves like a security system sticker in a home window. As a Project 529 Registration Station, you’ll appear on our website locator map to help point local cyclists to your store.

Register your fleet

Does your shop rent bikes? Protect your rental fleet by registering the bikes with us! Registering with the 529 Garage is a proactive step that takes less than 5 minutes, and in the event a bike goes missing, you’ll be able to quickly engage the 529 Garage community in recovering the bike.

Register your inventory

Grab all the details about the bikes in your inventory easily with our app, and transfer the registration to the new owner with just their email address on purchase. Having your inventory registered not only helps safeguard your shop’s bikes, but may help you get a discount on your insurance.
