Product Range: Custom-Shaped Plastic Cards and More
Plastic Card ID offers a versatile product catalog designed to match both creative vision and functional requirements. From standard gift cards to Custom-Shaped Plastic Cards cut to brand-specific silhouettes, our offerings provide a tangible upgrade to any campaign or operations program seeking standout deliverables.
Combining durable materials with precision die-cutting and premium finishes, our cards hold up in everyday use while communicating value. Brands report stronger visual recall and higher redemption rates when campaigns include professionally produced plastic pieces rather than paper or makeshift alternatives.
Design Options and Finishes
Our design services enable logos, full-bleed artwork, and specialty finishes like matte lamination, spot UV, and foil accents to create attention-grabbing, tactile pieces. Custom die shapes allow for unique silhouettes that align with logos, mascots, or product motifs for a fully branded experience.
Design consultations ensure the artwork and materials selected will perform well in production and distribution. We validate colors, edge tolerances, and readability, preventing costly revisions down the line while maximizing the visual impact of every printed card.
Materials and Durability
We source robust plastics engineered for everyday handling and longevity, and we offer specialty metal layers for a luxurious feel. These materials are intended for persistence and strength, giving cards a premium appearance that builds trust with recipients and keeps brands top-of-mind.
Quality controls at each production step guarantee consistent thickness, precise cut lines for custom shapes, and durable print adhesion that resists fading or scratching in normal use. The result is a reliable deliverable that reflects professional standards.
Ordering, Support, and Pricing
Ordering is streamlined with clear lead times and quantity breaks designed to fit both small pilot runs and large national campaigns. Custom quotes reflect the chosen materials, finishes, and value-added services such as mailing or affixing to carriers for turnkey fulfillment.
For direct assistance and fast quotes, call 800.835.7919 to discuss volume pricing and production schedules. Our account managers will match your project scope with the most cost-effective solutions and transparent timelines to keep campaigns on track.
Security, Technology, and Access Control
Security and technology integration are core strengths of Plastic Card ID, which produces ID badges, RFID smart cards, and encrypted access credentials for organizations that require reliable control. These cards combine physical durability with embedded electronics when clients need contactless or secure authentication.
Whether deploying MIFARE DESFire for campus access or magnetic stripe encoding for membership validation, our technical teams collaborate to ensure compatibility with your systems and secure encoding standards. The blend of robust plastics and precise electronics results in dependable credentials.
RFID and Contactless Solutions
Our RFID and contactless solutions support a range of protocols and security levels suitable for transit, hotels, universities, and corporate environments. Cards can be encoded and tested before shipping to guarantee performance with existing readers and access points.
We also provide guidance on integrating cards into your access infrastructure, helping clients plan enrollment workflows and distribution methods that maintain security while improving user experience.
Secure Printing and Anti-Fraud Options
To prevent unauthorized duplication and protect brand integrity, we offer security printing options such as holographic overlays, microtext, and UV varnishes. These features create visible and machine-readable layers of protection to deter tampering and counterfeiting.
Combining these measures with secure encoding and controlled production environments ensures that membership and identification programs operate with fewer incidents and greater confidence in the authenticity of each credential.
Technical Support and Integration
Our integration team supports encoding, testing, and pre-programming services so cards arrive ready to use the moment they are distributed. For complex deployments, we coordinate with IT and security teams to meet system requirements and validate functionality in pilot stages.
Contact our technical specialists at 800.835.7919 for assistance with protocols, encoding standards, and production verification. We take pride in delivering solutions that integrate seamlessly into operational workflows and deliver reliable performance.
Marketing Impact and Case Studies
Physical cards continue to outperform many digital constructs for direct response and brand recall. Plastic Card ID clients routinely see measurable uplifts-gift cards often deliver significant increases in average transaction value while loyalty cards encourage repeat visits and long-term relationships with customers.
Case studies show gift and loyalty programs increase sales and customer retention substantially when backed by professionally produced cards and well-planned distribution strategies. Our team helps clients design campaigns that convert curiosity into repeat business and higher lifetime value.
Proven Campaign Results
In one example, a retail client replaced paper certificates with plastic gift cards and observed a near doubling of redemptions within a single quarter-an example of how high-perceived value items move consumer behavior in predictable, beneficial ways for businesses of all sizes.
We analyze campaign objectives, advise on card design and messaging, and recommend fulfillment options that increase conversion. Tailored cards paired with targeted distribution consistently outperform impromptu or paper-based alternatives.

Because demand for physical cards remains strong, Plastic Card ID supports affiliate partnerships and value-added resellers with scalable production and marketing materials that simplify conversions. Over 60 affiliate websites currently leverage our product line to generate ongoing revenue for partners.
