Access Control Cards: Secure Entry Solutions for Your Business
htmlWelcome to Plastic Card ID: Your National Source for Access Control Cards and More
What separates a forgettable business from one that people remember? Often, it comes down to the physical tools they use every day. At Plastic Card ID, we have spent over 25 years helping businesses of every size create a stronger, more secure presence through high-quality plastic cards, card printers, and the supplies that keep everything running smoothly. We ship nationally, so no matter where you are, we are ready to help.
Our reputation was not built overnight. It grew from more than 100,000 satisfied businesses and over 50 million cards printed and delivered. That kind of track record means something. When you partner with us, you are tapping into decades of expertise that few competitors can match. Whether you need access control cards, gift cards, or ID badges, we have the knowledge and the products to deliver exactly what you need.
Getting started is simple. Our team is friendly, knowledgeable, and ready to walk you through every option. For new orders or any questions, call us directly at 800.835.7919. We make the process easy from start to finish, because that is what a true partner does.
Why Physical Cards Still Matter in a Digital World
Digital tools are everywhere, but they come and go. A well-made plastic card stays in a wallet, on a keyring, or by a door reader for months or even years. Every time someone sees or touches that card, they are reminded of your brand. That kind of repeated exposure is incredibly valuable and nearly impossible to replicate with a screen notification or an email.
Businesses that make the switch from paper-based systems to professional plastic cards often see dramatic results. Studies show that retailers switching from paper gift certificates to plastic gift cards can experience sales increases of up to 100%. That is not a small improvement. That is a transformation, and it starts with one simple upgrade to a better product.
We believe in the power of tangible connections. A card in someone's hand is a promise kept, a brand remembered, and a relationship strengthened. Our products are designed to make that connection as strong as possible, built to last and crafted to impress from the very first glance.

One of our greatest strengths is our ability to ship plastic cards, card printers, and refill supplies to businesses across the entire country.

Everything you need for a complete card program is available through one trusted source.
We also understand that timing matters. Rush orders, bulk shipments, and repeat deliveries are all handled with the same care and attention to detail. When your business depends on having the right cards at the right time, you can count on us to come through every single time.

Access Control Cards: Security That Works Every Single Day
Access control cards are one of the most important tools a modern business can use. They determine who gets in, who stays out, and how smoothly your daily operations run. A poorly designed or unreliable access card system can create serious security gaps, slow down workflows, and frustrate employees. We solve all of that with professionally produced cards built for performance.
Our access control cards are compatible with a wide range of reader systems and can be produced with several different technologies depending on your setup. From standard magnetic stripe cards to advanced RFID and contactless smart card options, we match the right card to your existing infrastructure. No guessing, no wasted spending, just the right solution delivered right.
Types of Access Control Cards We Offer
Not all access control cards are created equal. The technology inside the card determines how it communicates with readers, how secure it is, and how it fits into your overall security strategy. We offer a full range of card technologies so that you can choose the one that works best for your environment and your budget.
Our team takes the time to explain the differences clearly and help you make an informed decision. Whether you need basic proximity cards for a small office or advanced encrypted smart cards for a high-security facility, we have the expertise and the inventory to fulfill your order accurately and efficiently.
- Proximity cards (125 kHz standard access)
- RFID smart cards with MIFARE DESFire encryption
- Contactless smart cards for high-security environments
- Magnetic stripe access cards
- Combo cards with dual technology
- Hotel key cards and door entry cards
- Casino player cards with embedded tracking technology
How Access Control Cards Improve Workplace Security
Workplace security is not just about keeping unauthorized people out. It is also about creating an environment where employees feel safe and where sensitive areas are properly protected. Access control cards make it possible to restrict entry to specific zones, track who enters and exits, and revoke access instantly when needed. That level of control is essential for any serious business operation.
When an employee leaves the company or a card is lost, deactivating access is quick and simple with a card-based system. There is no need to rekey locks or change codes. This flexibility saves time and money while keeping your security posture strong. It also creates a clear record of access history, which can be invaluable in an audit or investigation.
We produce access control cards that are durable, tamper-resistant, and built to work reliably over long periods of daily use. These are not flimsy paper badges or cheap plastic alternatives. Our cards are made to perform in demanding real-world conditions, day after day, without failure or fading.
Customizing Access Cards to Reflect Your Brand
Security and branding do not have to be separate goals. Our access control cards can be fully custom-printed with your company logo, employee photos, color schemes, and any other design elements you want to include. A card that looks professional sends a message to everyone who sees it: this organization takes security and presentation seriously.
Custom-printed access cards also serve as a subtle but powerful form of identification. When employees wear or carry cards that clearly represent your brand, it creates a unified, professional appearance that reinforces company culture and makes unauthorized individuals easier to spot. It is a small detail that makes a big difference in everyday security awareness.
Our design capabilities are extensive. We work with your artwork or help you create something from scratch. Whatever your vision, we have the tools and the talent to bring it to life on a card that performs as well as it looks.
Card Printers: The Right Equipment for Every Operation
A great card starts with the right printer. We carry a wide selection of card printers from leading manufacturers, designed to handle everything from small daily print runs to large-scale corporate issuance programs. Whether you need to print cards on demand or batch-produce hundreds at a time, we have the printer that fits your operation perfectly.
Choosing a card printer can feel overwhelming with so many models and features available. That is why our team is here to help you cut through the confusion and find the right match for your volume, your budget, and your technical requirements. We do not push the most expensive option. We recommend the one that is truly right for you.
Popular Card Printer Categories We Carry
Our printer inventory spans a wide range of models and capabilities. From compact desktop units ideal for small offices to high-volume, dual-sided printers for enterprise-level operations, we stock the equipment that professionals trust. We also carry replacement parts and accessories to keep your printer running at peak performance.
Every printer we sell is backed by manufacturer warranties, and our team can help you understand maintenance requirements and best practices. A well-maintained printer produces better cards and lasts significantly longer, which means a better return on your investment over time. We are committed to helping you get the most value from every purchase.
- Single-sided desktop card printers
- Dual-sided (duplex) card printers
- High-volume batch printers
- Retransfer printers for edge-to-edge printing
- Encoding-capable printers (magnetic stripe, smart card, RFID)
- Portable and compact on-site issuance printers
Ribbons, Overlaminates, and Printer Supplies
A card printer is only as good as the supplies you put into it. We carry a full range of printer ribbons in YMCKO, KO, monochrome, and other configurations to match every print job and every budget. Using the right ribbon for your specific printer model ensures the best possible print quality and helps extend the life of your printhead.
Overlaminates are another critical supply. They protect the printed surface of your card from scratches, UV fading, and everyday wear. For access control cards and ID badges that are handled constantly, a quality overlaminate can dramatically extend the usable life of the card. We carry both clear and holographic overlaminate options to add both protection and an extra layer of security.
Cleaning kits, blank card stock, and other accessories round out our supplies catalog. We make it easy to order everything you need in one place, so there is no scrambling between suppliers or waiting for critical items to arrive from different sources. One call, one order, everything you need.
Matching the Right Printer to Your Card Program
The best printer for your program depends on several factors: how many cards you print per day, whether you need single or dual-sided printing, what encoding technologies you require, and how much you want to spend upfront versus over time. We help you think through all of these variables before recommending a specific model.
For organizations that issue cards infrequently or in small quantities, a mid-range desktop printer at $500-$1,200 is often the most practical choice. For high-volume operations that need to produce hundreds or thousands of cards per week, investing in a premium retransfer printer in the $2,000-$4,500 range can deliver a much lower cost per card and superior print consistency over time.
Our knowledgeable team is just a phone call away whenever you have questions or need guidance. Reach us at 800.835.7919 and we will help you make a confident, informed decision that serves your business well for years to come.
Gift Cards, Loyalty Cards, and Marketing Tools That Drive Real Results
Beyond access control, plastic cards are one of the most effective marketing tools available to any business. Gift cards and loyalty cards have proven track records of increasing customer spending, improving retention, and attracting new customers who might never have discovered your brand otherwise. The numbers speak clearly: gift cards can boost retail sales by 35-50% or more.
We produce stunning gift cards and loyalty cards that look expensive, feel premium, and leave a lasting impression on every customer who receives one. From elegant metallic finishes to bold custom graphics, our cards are designed to stand out and invite repeat visits from loyal, engaged customers.
Gift Cards That Turn Shoppers into Brand Advocates
A gift card is more than a payment tool. It is an invitation to experience your brand. When someone gives one of your gift cards as a present, they are essentially endorsing your business to a friend or family member. That kind of personal referral is incredibly powerful, and a beautifully designed plastic gift card makes the message feel even more meaningful and intentional.
Plastic gift cards also outperform their paper counterparts in nearly every measurable way. They are more durable, more visually appealing, and more likely to be kept and used rather than lost or forgotten. Retailers who make the switch from paper gift certificates to professional plastic cards regularly see dramatic improvements in redemption rates and overall gift card revenue.
We can produce gift cards in any quantity, with full custom printing, magnetic stripe encoding, or barcode options to integrate with your point-of-sale system. Whether you need 250 cards for a small boutique or 50,000 for a national retail chain, we have the capacity and the expertise to deliver on time and on budget.
Loyalty Programs That Keep Customers Coming Back
Customer acquisition is expensive. Customer retention is where the real profit lives. A well-designed loyalty card program gives your customers a reason to choose you over a competitor every single time. It creates a habit, builds an emotional connection, and rewards behavior that directly benefits your bottom line. It is one of the smartest investments any business can make.
Our loyalty cards are produced with the same attention to quality and design as all of our other products. They can include barcodes, magnetic stripes, or smart card chips depending on how your loyalty tracking system works. We make sure the card integrates seamlessly into your existing infrastructure so you can launch your program without any technical headaches.
We also offer custom card carriers and sleeves that make a loyalty card feel like a gift when first presented to a customer. That first impression matters enormously. When a customer receives a loyalty card in a beautifully branded sleeve or holder, the perceived value of the program increases instantly, and so does their commitment to participating.
Membership Cards and ID Badges: Building Belonging and Security Together
Membership cards and ID badges serve a dual purpose: they create a sense of belonging for the people who carry them, and they provide an essential security and identification function for the organizations that issue them. We produce both with equal care, ensuring that every card communicates the right message while performing its intended function reliably.
From alumni cards that connect graduates to their university long after commencement, to union credentials that certify membership and uphold professional standards, our cards carry meaning beyond their physical form. They represent identity, achievement, and community in a way that digital alternatives simply cannot replicate with the same emotional depth.
Professional ID Badges for Every Industry
ID badges are a daily necessity in healthcare, education, corporate environments, government facilities, and countless other sectors. A professional ID badge tells the world who someone is, where they belong, and what level of trust and access they carry. Poor-quality badges undermine all of those messages instantly. Our badges are made to project confidence and professionalism at every glance.
We produce ID badges with full-color photo printing, laminate overlays for durability, and a wide range of security features including holograms, UV printing, and encoded data. Whether you need 10 badges for a small team or 10,000 for a large institution, our production process ensures consistent quality across every single card in the order.
Accessories matter too. We carry lanyards, badge holders, badge reels, and clips in a wide variety of styles so that your ID program looks polished and complete from card to carrier. A well-presented badge tells employees and visitors alike that your organization values both security and professionalism in equal measure.
Alumni Cards and Union Cards That Build Community
Alumni programs are a powerful way to maintain long-term relationships with graduates and former members. A well-designed alumni card creates a lasting physical reminder of shared experiences and ongoing connections. It signals that the relationship did not end at graduation; it evolved into something permanent and mutually beneficial for both the graduate and the institution.
Union cards carry a similar weight. They are symbols of solidarity, certification of membership, and proof of professional standing. Unions that invest in high-quality, professionally produced membership cards send a clear message to their members: you are valued, and we represent you with pride. That message starts with the card in your member's hand.
We understand the significance of these cards and take their production seriously. Every alumni card, every union credential, and every membership card we produce is handled with the same care and precision that we bring to every other product in our extensive portfolio.
Specialty Cards: Standing Out with Unique Materials and Custom Shapes
Sometimes a standard card is not enough. Some brands need something that stops people in their tracks, something that communicates luxury, creativity, or cutting-edge technology from the moment it is seen or touched. That is exactly what our specialty card options are designed to do, and they do it exceptionally well for brands that refuse to settle for ordinary.
Our specialty card lineup includes clear plastic cards, custom die-cut shapes, and premium metal cards crafted from materials like stainless steel and gold-tone alloys. Each of these options creates an experience that a standard card simply cannot match, giving your brand an unforgettable physical presence that earns admiration and drives conversation.
Clear Plastic Cards: Modern, Sleek, and Memorable
Clear plastic cards offer a striking visual effect that immediately sets a brand apart from the competition. When designed thoughtfully, the transparency of the card becomes a design feature in itself, allowing graphics, logos, and text to appear to float against whatever background the card is held in front of. It is a look that feels both modern and sophisticated.
These cards are produced from high-quality PVC material and can include all of the same functional features as standard cards, including magnetic stripes, barcodes, signature panels, and encoding. You do not have to sacrifice function to gain an extraordinary visual impact. Clear cards give you both in a single, impressive package that your clients and customers will not forget.
Clear plastic cards work beautifully as VIP membership cards, premium gift cards, or exclusive loyalty rewards. The visual impact they create elevates the perceived value of whatever program they represent, which directly influences how customers feel about the brands that issue them. First impressions are powerful, and clear cards make extraordinary ones.
Metal Cards: The Ultimate Expression of Luxury Branding
Metal cards occupy a category all their own. When a customer or client receives a metal card, they feel the weight of it in their hand and immediately understand that this brand is serious, premium, and exceptional. The tactile experience of holding a metal card communicates quality in a way that no other card material can replicate, making it the ultimate tool for luxury positioning.
We offer metal cards in stainless steel, brushed finishes, and gold-tone options. These cards can be laser-engraved, chemically etched, or printed with specialty inks to create designs that are as visually stunning as they are durable. They do not bend, they do not crack, and they do not wear out the way standard cards eventually do. They last for years and look remarkable the entire time.
Metal cards are ideal for high-end loyalty programs, exclusive membership tiers, premium VIP access cards, and corporate gifting programs. The price point for metal cards typically ranges from $10-$30 per card or more depending on customization, but for brands targeting premium markets, the investment pays dividends through dramatically elevated brand perception and customer loyalty.
Custom Shapes and Die-Cut Cards for Creative Campaigns
Who says a card has to be rectangular? Custom-shaped cards are one of the most creative and effective tools in our specialty lineup. Die-cut into the shape of a product, a logo, a tool, or any other relevant form, these cards create immediate curiosity and engagement. People pick them up, examine them, and remember them long after a standard card would have been forgotten.
Custom-shaped cards work wonderfully for trade show giveaways, product launch campaigns, seasonal promotions, and any situation where standing out in a crowd is the primary objective. When someone picks up a card shaped like your product or logo at a crowded event, you have already won their attention. Everything that follows is simply closing the deal.
We handle the die-cutting process in-house and work closely with your design team to ensure that the final card matches your creative vision precisely. From concept to delivery, our specialty card production process is collaborative, detail-oriented, and focused entirely on creating something that genuinely wows your audience every single time.
Postcard Mailers and Full-Service Mailing Solutions
Our capabilities extend well beyond printing. We also offer a complete line of plastic postcard mailers that combine the durability and visual appeal of plastic with the reach of direct mail campaigns. These mailers achieve response rates that are approximately double those of traditional paper mail, making them one of the most cost-effective direct marketing tools available to any business.
We handle everything from printing to card affixing to mailing list management, making us a true one-stop shop for businesses that want the results of a sophisticated direct mail campaign without the complexity of managing multiple vendors. We take care of the details so you can focus on your business.
Why Plastic Postcard Mailers Outperform Paper Every Time
Paper mail is easy to ignore and even easier to throw away. A plastic postcard mailer, on the other hand, demands attention. It feels different the moment it is picked up from the mailbox. The weight, the finish, and the visual clarity of a plastic mailer communicate importance and quality before a single word is read. That difference in first impression translates directly into higher engagement and better results.
When a plastic card is affixed to the mailer, the value proposition becomes even clearer. Recipients see a card that looks useful and worth keeping, which increases the likelihood that they will take the next step and contact your business. That conversion lift is real and measurable, and it makes plastic mailers one of the smartest investments in direct marketing available today.
We produce postcard mailers in a range of sizes and configurations and can incorporate full-color printing, custom card affixing, and personalized variable data to make each piece feel tailored to the individual recipient. Personalization dramatically improves response rates, and we have the technology and the expertise to make it happen at scale for your campaign.
Frequently Asked Questions About Our Products and Services
We know that choosing the right card solution comes with questions, and we welcome every single one. Our team has heard them all, and we genuinely enjoy helping clients understand their options and feel confident in their decisions. Below are some of the most common questions we receive, answered clearly and completely so you can move forward with confidence.
If your question is not answered here, do not hesitate to reach out. We are always available to provide personalized guidance based on your specific situation. No question is too basic, and no project is too complex for our experienced team to handle with care and expertise.
Common Questions We Hear Every Day
Many clients wonder how long it takes to receive their order. Production and shipping times vary by product and quantity, but we work hard to turn orders around as quickly as possible. Rush options are available for time-sensitive needs, and our team will always give you a clear, honest timeline before you commit to an order. We believe in setting accurate expectations and then exceeding them.
Another frequent question involves minimum order quantities. We work with businesses of all sizes, and our minimums are designed to be accessible rather than prohibitive. Whether you need 100 cards or 100,000, we have pricing structures and production capabilities that make sense for your scale. We never make small businesses feel like second-class customers, because every client relationship matters to us equally.
- Can I order a sample before committing to a full run? Yes, samples are available.
- Do you offer design assistance? Absolutely, our team can help with artwork.
- What card thickness options are available? Standard CR80 and other gauges are offered.
- Can cards be encoded with data during printing? Yes, for magnetic stripe and smart card formats.
- Do you ship internationally? Our primary service area is national within the U.S.
Understanding Card Specifications Before You Order
Card specifications can seem technical, but understanding a few key terms makes the process much simpler. The standard card size is CR80, which is the same size as a standard credit card at 3.375 by 2.125 inches. Most of our clients use this size because it fits standard wallets and card holders perfectly, making it the most practical and widely accepted format in the industry.
Card thickness is measured in mils, with standard thickness being 30 mil. Thicker cards at 40 mil feel more substantial and premium, while thinner options at 10-20 mil may be appropriate for specific applications like card mailers. We will help you determine the right thickness for your use case based on how the card will be used and how long it needs to last.
Encoding options include magnetic stripe (tracks 1, 2, and 3), barcode, QR code, RFID, and smart card chip formats. Each encoding type serves different purposes and integrates with different reader systems. Our team will help you select the right encoding option to ensure compatibility with your existing infrastructure before we ever start the production process.

Case Study Highlights: Real Results from Real Businesses
Numbers and features are compelling, but real-world results tell the most powerful story. We have had the privilege of serving clients across dozens of industries, and many of them have experienced outcomes that exceeded their expectations in meaningful and measurable ways. The following examples represent the kinds of transformations that happen when the right card solution meets the right business strategy.
These are not isolated wins. They reflect patterns we see consistently across our client base, because high-quality plastic cards, when used strategically, have a proven ability to drive engagement, increase revenue, and strengthen relationships between brands and their audiences. The results speak louder than any feature list ever could.
Retail Gift Card Program Transformation
A regional retail chain with 12 locations had been using paper gift certificates for years and was frustrated with the low redemption rates and the poor customer experience they created. Paper certificates were being misplaced, lost, and forgotten. After switching to professionally printed plastic gift cards with magnetic stripe encoding, the chain saw their gift card revenue increase by over 80% within the first year of the program launch.
The new cards were designed with bold branding and a premium feel that made recipients genuinely excited to receive and use them. Staff reported that customers frequently commented on how professional the cards looked compared to competitors. That perception of quality extended to the brand itself, creating a ripple effect of improved customer sentiment that went far beyond the gift card program alone.
We managed the entire production process from design consultation through final delivery, providing a seamless experience that required minimal effort from the client's internal team. That is the kind of partnership we strive to create with every client, regardless of their size or the complexity of their project.
Access Control Upgrade for a Growing Corporate Campus
A technology company experiencing rapid growth needed to upgrade their access control system across a campus of four buildings. Their old system used simple key fobs that offered no customization, no branding, and limited security levels. They came to us looking for a solution that would grow with their company while also reflecting their culture of innovation and professionalism.
We recommended a combination of RFID-enabled access control cards with full-color photo ID printing, produced on a mid-range retransfer printer that their facilities team could operate on-site for new employee onboarding. The total investment for the printer and initial card supply was $3,200-$4,800, and the company was able to issue professionally branded, secure access cards to all 400 employees within two weeks of receiving their equipment.
The results were immediate and impressive. Security incidents related to unauthorized access dropped significantly in the first quarter after implementation. Employee satisfaction with the onboarding process improved because new hires received a polished, professional credential on their first day. And the company's facilities team gained confidence managing the system independently, reducing their reliance on outside vendors for routine card issuance.
What Sets Us Apart: Our Commitment to Quality and Partnership
There are other companies that print plastic cards. We know that, and we do not pretend otherwise. What we offer that others cannot is a combination of depth, experience, and genuine investment in your success that goes well beyond a transactional relationship. We are not just filling orders. We are building partnerships that last for years and deliver real, measurable value to your business.
Our quality control standards are rigorous. Every card that leaves our facility is checked against strict specifications for color accuracy, encoding reliability, laminate adhesion, and structural integrity. We do not ship cards that do not meet our standards, because your brand is on that card, and your brand deserves nothing less than excellence in every detail.
Our Product Quality Standards
Quality is not an accident. It is the result of deliberate processes, careful material selection, and experienced technicians who take pride in their work. We use only premium-grade PVC materials and industry-leading printing equipment to ensure that every card we produce meets the highest standards for color vibrancy, durability, and functional performance across its entire intended lifespan.
Our encoding processes are tested against industry-standard readers before cards are approved for shipment. Whether we are encoding magnetic stripes, smart card chips, or RFID technology, we verify that every card functions exactly as intended in the real-world environments where it will be used. That level of verification is standard practice for us, not an optional upgrade.
We also maintain strict quality oversight for all printing supplies, including ribbons and overlaminates, that we sell separately. Using the correct supplies for your specific printer model is essential for achieving the best possible print quality and protecting your investment in the printer itself. Our team is happy to help you identify the exact supplies your printer requires every time you need to reorder.
A Partner, Not Just a Printer
The word "partner" gets used a lot in business, but we mean it in the most literal sense. We invest time in understanding your goals, your challenges, and your audience before we ever recommend a product. That consultative approach ensures that the solution we deliver actually solves your problem rather than just fulfilling a generic order that may or may not meet your real needs.
We also stay connected with our clients over time, checking in after orders are delivered, answering questions as programs evolve, and offering guidance when new needs arise. Many of our clients have been with us for five, ten, or even twenty or more years because they know they can count on us to be there whenever they need us, not just when they are placing a new order.
That long-term commitment is the foundation of everything we do. It is why we have served over 100,000 businesses, shipped over 50 million cards, and built a reputation that continues to attract new clients through referrals from satisfied existing ones. When you work with us, you join a community of businesses that understand the value of quality, reliability, and partnership done right.
