Bring a finished artwork file, a rough sketch, or nothing but a logo and a color. Our in-house design and prepress team turns it into a print-ready, scan-verified card — with a free digital proof before anything goes to press.
Free 24-hour proof · Unlimited revisionsAlready have a design? Send AI, PSD, PDF or high-resolution PNG at 300 DPI with bleed and we will run a free prepress check.
Pick one of our CR80 templates and drop in your logo, colors and text. Fastest route from idea to proof.
Our designers build a bespoke card from scratch, including both faces, security elements and encoding layout.
You send the card purpose, quantity, brand assets and any data file (CSV/XLSX) for variable printing.
We build both faces, place the scan area correctly and return a digital proof for your written approval.
Barcode symbology, QR payload, magstripe track data or NFC NDEF record is configured and test-encoded.
Print, laminate, encode and read-back test. You get a scan report, then the cards ship.
Send us a sample card or a spec sheet from your software vendor and we will replicate the exact data structure. If you are unsure, we will help you determine it.
