Shark Tank: BenjiLock Accepts $200,000 Offer from Kevin O’Leary

YouTube


Last into the tank is Robbie Cabral of BenjiLock, seeking $200,000 for 10 percent equity.


BenjiLock is a rechargeable padlock that uses fingerprint technology to ensure your valuables are safe. According to Digital Trends, the padlock “supports up to four distinct fingerprints and saves them in an encrypted chip, allowing users to easily crack open the 7-pin device with a finger of their own choosing.” The device can also be opened using traditional keys in the event that an unauthorized individual attempts to unlock it, which causes all information to be deleted. It is available in stainless steel, white, black, brass and copper and costs $80.



The sharks are all very impressed that the charge on the padlock lasts a whole year, while Lori Greiner thinks it’s very impressive that the product was honored at CES 2017. BenjiLock, which has received a licensing offer from one company, is Cabral’s full-time job.


Kevin O’Leary offers $200,000 for 15 percent, followed by Lori Greiner, who offers $200,000 for 15 percent. The offers continue to pour in as Barbara Corcoran partially offers $100,000 for 10 percent. Guest shark Alex Rodriguez is very inspired by Cabral’s passion and story and offers to join Corcoran’s offer for a total of $200,000 for 20 percent. Before Cabral accepts anything, Mark Cuban goes out.


Ultimately, Cabral accepts O’Leary’s offer. He says something connected with that deal in particular.
