We aim to be a long-term strategic partner, delivering card solutions that align with marketing objectives and operational needs.

That mission is informed by deep experience across specialties such as casino player cards, hotel key cards, and MIFARE DESFire smart cards. We combine consultation, design support, and robust production standards to ensure each program meets both aesthetic and functional goals.

Plastic cards offer a tangible, permanent presence that digital messages rarely replicate. They create a physical connection that customers keep, reuse, and associate with your brand. This permanence often translates into measurable marketing outcomes, including improved redemption and retention rates.

Plastic Card ID combines production scale with bespoke capabilities: clear plastic, custom shapes, and premium metal cards are produced alongside high-volume runs. The company supports complex programs with warranties on workmanship and rigorous quality control, ensuring every shipment meets the highest standards.

As a one-stop provider, we also offer value-added services such as custom carriers, sleeves, card affixing, and full-service mailing, enabling clients to deploy campaigns with seamless logistics and consistent branding across every touchpoint.

When needed, we coordinate with integrators to stage cards for distribution or to ensure system readiness before mass deployment. This hands-on support eliminates common pitfalls during launch and ensures end-users enjoy a smooth activation experience.

Data handling follows tight controls during personalization and fulfillment. Sensitive personalization is processed in secure batches, and fulfillment options include individually addressed mailings, carrier inserts, and custom sleeves to create polished delivery experiences while protecting recipient privacy.
