+## Badge
+
+A chip can be used as a badge by placing the `tsChipBadge` directive on a standalone chip:
+
+```html
+<ts-chip tsChipBadge>My badge!</ts-chip>
+```
+
+This will disable the ability to remove, select or focus the chip.
+
 ## Events
 
 Since this component does not directly manage the data, we rely on emitting events to alert the consumer as to what needs to happen.
