BRANDING: Make it yours! Use your school’s logo, colours and even a background photo to make your ID unique

FUNCTIONALITY: Adding a barcode or magnetic stripe to your cards allows them to be used to open doors and process payments.

SERIAL NUMBER: Serial numbers are a great way to track cards in your system, but they can also help identify unauthorised or forged cards.

PHOTOGRAPH: Don’t skimp on quality – hire a professional to take portraits to ensure your photos are up to par.

SECURITY: Use HoloPatch® cards and/or add a HoloKote watermark on your cards to help prevent counterfeiting.
