Approximately 50% of microchips injected will not help get a pet home because they are improperly registered, or not registered at all. Any brand microchip can be registered through Fi, so that all pet owners can have access to free microchip registration for life.
Pet owners can quickly register a non-Fi Nano microchip with an active email and their microchip number at nano.tryfi.com/register. It does not require a Vet/Rescue/Breeder's help.
Follow steps below (Steps to Register a Non-Fi Microchip For an Owner) if you would like to register for an owner. Once you register for an owner, the chip is dually registered to your vet/rescue/breeder information, as well as the owners information.
If you do not yet have an owner and would like to register a non-Fi Nano microchip to your Nano account, you can do so. Follow steps below (Steps to Register a Non-Fi Microchip Without an Owner).
