Clients frequently see substantial sales uplifts when switching from disposable paper to professionally produced plastic gift cards, illustrating how a tangible product can dramatically change consumer behavior.
Our design team collaborates with marketing leaders to ensure cards are on-brand and optimized for POS handling, while production specialists ensure durability and consistent appearance through quality-controlled processes.

When brands wish to communicate luxury and permanence, our specialty products combine striking materials with expert finishing to produce cards that recipients treasure and retain long after the initial interaction.
Commercial Cards and Accessories
Beyond cards, Plastic Card ID supplies complementary items such as custom carriers, sleeves, and postcard mailers to support campaign deployment. These value-added services create a cohesive presentation that improves response rates and simplifies distribution for large-scale mailings or point-of-sale programs.
Our integrated approach-combining cards with tailored packaging and fulfillment-ensures a polished customer experience and reduces the administrative burden on internal teams managing promotions or membership rollouts.
Security & Technology
| Card Type | Security Features | Common Applications |
|---|---|---|
| RFID / Contactless | MIFARE, DESFire encryption | Access control, hotels, casinos |
| Magnetic Stripe | Secure encoding options | Loyalty, retail, membership |
| Visual ID | Photo ID, barcodes, holograms | Alumni, staff, union credentials |
Security and functional technology are central to many of our card solutions. Plastic Card ID integrates robust access control options such as RFID and contactless smart cards with industry-standard encryption for secure operations in hotels, casinos, and corporate environments.
Our technical team works with clients to specify the right combination of physical and digital security features, delivering industry-leading security that supports operational reliability and reduces fraud risk across usage scenarios.
Smart Cards and RFID Solutions
Smart card offerings include MIFARE and DESFire options configured for secure, contactless transactions and access. These cards are ideal for organizations that require a reliable, high-throughput solution for daily operations while maintaining strong cryptographic protections.
Integration services help ensure cards function seamlessly with existing access control systems or point-of-sale devices, reducing deployment friction and maximizing long-term performance.
ID, Photo Badges, and Credentials
Professional photo ID badges and secure credentials support identity verification and organizational safety. Our print processes incorporate durable materials and optional anti-counterfeit measures that preserve legibility and protect against unauthorized duplication over prolonged use.
Whether for alumni networks, unions, or employee identification, the result is a clear, durable credential that reinforces belonging and operational integrity for every enrolled member.
Encoding & Technical Services
Technical services include magnetic stripe encoding, barcode printing, and RFID personalization to ensure cards are ready for immediate deployment. We coordinate testing and validation so each card arrives configured to client specifications and supported by documentation for IT teams.
Clients benefit from a single vendor experience that reduces complexity-seamless integration between printing, encoding, and fulfillment simplifies rollouts and accelerates time to value for card programs.
Marketing Impact & Case Studies
Plastic card carriers are powerful marketing tools that create memorable brand touchpoints and measurable returns. Plastic Card ID has documented numerous case studies showing dramatic improvements in campaign response rates, gift card revenue, and customer engagement when plastic cards are used strategically instead of paper alternatives.
From retail to hospitality, the company's solutions are crafted to support campaigns that convert prospects into repeat customers by providing a tangible incentive people prefer to hold onto and use. These physical tokens consistently outperform ephemeral digital prompts in attention and redemption.
Retail Success Stories
Retail clients often report immediate revenue increases when switching to professionally produced gift cards, in some cases achieving up to 100% sales uplift on promotions. Well-designed plastic cards not only increase initial spend but also drive future visits and higher lifetime value for customers.
By pairing compelling card artwork with targeted distribution and redemption incentives, brands see both immediate transactional benefits and long-term engagement gains for seasonal and year-round programs alike.
Hospitality and Loyalty Programs
Hotels and casinos leverage plastic cards for room access and loyalty tracking, combining convenience with secure technology to enhance guest experiences. A thoughtfully implemented card program supports guest retention and simplifies operational workflows for staff while reinforcing brand recognition at every stay.
With measured improvements in repeat bookings and on-property spending, organizations view these cards as an investment in both convenience and profitability, realizing returns across service and revenue metrics.
Case Study Highlights and Metrics
Across multiple case studies, clients have realized significant gains: gift cards boosting sales by as much as 35-50%, postcard mailers doubling response rates, and specialty cards increasing perceived value for premium offerings. Those metrics reflect both creative execution and precise fulfillment strategies.
