We produce employee badges, membership IDs, and access credentials integrated with magnetic stripes, barcodes, or MIFARE DESFire contactless technology, enabling robust security and smooth user experiences.
These products are trusted by universities, hotels, casinos, and corporate campuses where identity integrity and reliable access are essential. We pair secure printing techniques with durable materials to ensure credentials perform through daily use while remaining tamper-evident.
Technology & Integrations
We support a wide array of technologies - RFID, NFC, and contactless chips - and work with your facility's access control vendors to ensure seamless integration. Our technical teams validate encoding standards and test cards prior to shipment so installations proceed without delay or compatibility issues.
Opting for professional-grade cards reduces downtime and administrative overhead, while creating a more professional appearance that reinforces identity and trust among staff and members.
Production Quality & Warranties
Quality control is central to our process: color checks, secure printing practices, and functional testing are performed at multiple points. Where relevant, we back our products with warranties that reflect our confidence in materials and workmanship, providing reliability for mission-critical applications.
This focus on standards ensures that every batch of Wholesale Plastic Cards meets the durability and security expectations of organizations that cannot afford failure, whether for access control or membership management.

We serve a broad set of industries and geographies, offering remote support for project planning and local logistics coordination to ensure fast delivery. Our customer service teams are experienced in handling complex orders and can recommend materials and security features tailored to your operational needs.
For project launches, we provide step-by-step timelines, sample approvals, and post-delivery support so administrators are confident with installation and day-to-day management of credential programs.
Specialty Cards & Luxury Options
When first impressions matter, our specialty cards provide a striking way to communicate brand prestige. Options like stainless steel or gold plating, clear plastic, and custom shapes create an emotional impact that conventional cards cannot match, positioning your brand as thoughtful and distinctive.
These high-end alternatives are ideal for VIP programs, commemorative editions, and premium gift initiatives. Each specialty card is engineered for appearance and longevity while adhering to production tolerances that ensure compatibility with standard card readers when required.
Material Choices and Finishes
Choose metals, transparent substrates, or layered constructions to achieve the desired tactile and visual effect. Our experts help specify thickness, edge finishes, and surface treatments so that cards not only look exceptional but function reliably in retail and access environments.
These specialty options are a powerful method to signal exclusivity, and when paired with strategic distribution they can significantly boost perceived value and customer loyalty by creating a memorable unboxing or presentation moment.
