Abstract
Disclosed are various embodiments for facilitating the return of lost items and maintaining an inventory registry of items which are all associated with a user who participates in an item protection program. A user may update an inventory registry to include items that are associated with the user. Therefore, the user may be able to manage his or her items in one place and determine the overall value associated with the items. Additionally, a unique identifier code may be assigned to each user participating in a user protection program. The unique identifier code may be embedded on an item or item label so that it may be scanned to identify the owner of the item. Therefore, if the item were lost, the finder may scan the unique identifier code using an item protection application to initiate the return of the lost item to the owner.
