Securicards Multi-technology cards
Multiple card technologies can be combined on one single Securicardcard. This enables the seamless migration of an access control system from, for example, magnetic stripe communications to high security SMA proximity. Multi-technology cards are also a flexible solution for an access control system containing more than one type of communication interface or for interoperability between sites and systems.
The ideal access card
Cards are the key to security. Securicards are engineered to withstand years of everyday use. Securicards are built for personalisation. They were developed with a smooth PVC surface with minimal chip deflection so every card looks great, no matter how it’s printed. Manufactured at facilities certified by ISO 9001, Visa®, and MasterCard®, Securicards credentials have lower failure rates and higher system integrity than other proximity card alternatives. Available with both PVC and durable PET composite construction, Securicards are built to last. PET composite is stronger than pure PVC so it resists warping, cracking and yellowing over a long life cycle. Securicards proximity cards are also available in multi-technology formats including magnetic stripe and MIFARE®.
Industry-leading delivery and service
Global manufacturing and personalisation hubs get Securicards to your door quickly, with no backlog or minimum order requirements. Securicards is backed by a commitment to service with free training, experienced staff of ID security experts and a dedicated network of resellers. Every Securicards product is guaranteed for life. This means free phone and email support for all customers, including complimentary replacement of production damaged or defective cards for as long as the card is in use.
