Wow. I absolutely love this idea.

No more forgetting your tag, putting holes in your swimsuit when you pin it on, or weird tans lines because you pin it on your swimsuit strap.

If you choose to purchase one, you won't have to keep track of that little plastic badge anymore. I can hear a collective, Hallelujah.
