Table of Contents [Hide]

At Plastic Card ID , we're not just about cards; we're about creating a lasting impression. Whether you're networking, rewarding loyalty, or securing access, the tactile sensation of a well-crafted card can speak volumes before a word is even read. It's why we meticulously design our cards to embody durability and a comfortable, premium feel-because we know it reflects the strength and reliability of your brand.

Our selection finds that sweet spot between being sturdy enough to withstand daily handling and sleek enough to slide smoothly into a wallet or a card reader. When you hand out one of our cards, your clients know you mean business.

Need to place a new order or have any burning questions? Our team is always a quick call away at 800.835.7919 . In the meantime, let's dive into the world of cards and printers, and discover the possibilities that await.

Picking up a card is often the first physical interaction someone has with your brand. It needs to assure them of quality. Too thin, and it feels flimsy, cheap, and easily forgotten. Too thick, and it becomes cumbersome, refusing to fit in a slot or pocket. We strike an equilibrium, crafting a card that tells your recipients they're holding onto something substantial-something as enduring as your business.

Our card thickness is selected to give each design the resilience it needs to shine through the busiest of hands, bags, and machines without feeling overly robust. It's a measured choice, a silent ambassador for your brand's attention to detail and quality.

Every time your card is pulled out for use, it's a reminder of your brand. It's why we ensure our cards can handle repetition without wear and tear. Each swipe, tap, or scan should be as good as the first, maintaining image clarity and structural integrity.

We use materials and printing techniques that help resist fading, cracking, and bending. Think of our cards as mini billboards that keep your brand looking fresh, no matter how many times they're seen and used. It's durability you can trust.

Our card textures aren't an afterthought; they're an experience. From the moment a card is handed over, it should feel like a natural extension of your brand-neither slippery nor abrasive. We balance smoothness with just enough grip to ensure comfort and ease of handling.

Plus, they have to slide into a card reader or ATM without a hitch-every single time. It's that seamless interaction that often goes unnoticed, and that's exactly how we like it. Unnoticeable because it's unproblematic, reflecting the seamless interaction your clients can expect with your company.

Choices, choices, and more choices! Our range of plastic cards isn't about overwhelming you; it's about finding the perfect match for your brand's voice and vision. From VIP access to reward systems, membership privileges, or secure entry-there's a card that fits exactly what you're aiming for.

We'll guide you through the options, tailoring your cards to be the useful tools they're meant to be. They're not just for show; they're functional, multi-purpose assets that can carry data, grant entry, track progress, and more.

And remember, though we only give our recycling spiel on rare occasions, you can rest assured that when it's time to retire your cards, they can be recycled responsibly. Dial 800.835.7919 and let's talk about how you can leave a lasting impression!

Our plethora of plastic cards come in a variety of types to suit any functionality you need. Whether it's high-tech smart cards laced with chips, magnetic stripes for simplicity, or barcodes for a quick scan, we have them all. Let's look at a few:

Customization is where your cards truly become yours. Color schemes, logos, fonts, and even the card's finish-matte, glossy, or textured-are yours to dictate. These intricacies personalize your brand's message, so every handover feels like a personal touch from you.

Our design pros are wizards at taking your vision and turning it into a tangible token of your brand. And it doesn't stop there; we discuss the nitty-gritty-like coding and security features-to ensure the final product does exactly what you need it to.

It's not just about looks; these cards have jobs to do. They might need to store data, rack up loyalty points, open doors-both figuratively and literally-or just make sure you're remembered. Each function comes with its own set of requirements for thickness, flexibility, and durability.

We're pros at aligning form and function, so just tell us what you're after and we'll ensure your cards stand up to the task while still looking on-brand and attractive. Questions on how to get started? Jump on a call to 800.835.7919 and we'll get the ball rolling.
