How can I keep my cards safe from fraud and copying?
We can add security features such as guilloche, UV foiling, microtext, holograms, embossing, and signature panels to your identity cards to prevent fraud.
Is it possible to have plastic ID cards produced at a later date?
Yes, you may order cards through our call-off service and then request them on an as-needed basis. You can purchase a quantity of cards (MOQ 50 cards) and subsequently request them as needed. Please contact us for further information.
How will my ID card look once its been printed?
Pure white elements on cards, owing to the printing process, may result in visible, but faint lines next to the white element. This happens when the printer’s heating compartments cool down as a result of non-printing pure white parts. This is often only minor and has little effect on your design, however it should be considered while designing identification cards.
To reduce the faint lines, avoid putting pure white components on blocks of solid color. Consider using an off-white colour that still appears to be white but needs to be printed instead of a pure white element.
