For Smart Card:

How Do RFID Cards Work?

RFID stands for radio-frequency identification, with a code embedded on each card within a chip. These cards work seamlessly with card readers to open doors, act as identification, deactivate security locks or track personnel.

Can I Create Custom Contactless Payment Cards?

Yes! RFID chips can store large amounts of data, with options to link each card to a customer or staff account. The chip will transmit the information about the charge or sale back to your central system or payment solution for fast, contactless transactions.

What Is the Advantage of Custom RFID Cards Over Barcodes?

Barcode scanners work similarly to RFID chips but can be more susceptible to damage, where the scanner will not recognize the barcode if a security pass or ID card has become worn or damaged. RFID chips are faster and easier to use, with a quick tap to register the card details without requiring a direct line of 'sight' between the scanner or lock and the card.

What Can I Put on a Customized RFID Card?

XRFID can create any design, color, imagery, or text you require. That might be a personal RFID card with an individual’s photo, name, and position, pass cards that designate authorized permission zones, simplified cards for use in leisure centers or hotels, or any other details you wish your cards to display.

How Long Does It Take to Produce a Bespoke Set of RFID Cards?

In most cases, your RFID cards will be ready to dispatch in four to five weeks, although we can accommodate shorter lead times of seven days for our Express RFID Laminates.

We can add additional features and chip data to integrate new RFID cards with your existing entry systems, lockers, access control gates, or payment solutions as required. However, extra features can add a little more time to production.

How Many Custom RFID Cards Do I Need to Order?

We offer a flexible service and can produce custom RFID cards in batches as small as 500 cards, depending on the finish, protective coating, and detail on your card design. If you require a quick turnaround or need to upgrade a set of older barcodes or QR code passes with RFID chips, please get in touch to discuss your requirements.

What Are the Benefits of Personalized RFID Cards?

Personalized RFID cards are an excellent way to provide straightforward access to buildings, server rooms, secure areas, or access-controlled doors for personnel, security staff and authorized visitors. Keyless, contactless solutions minimize security risks while logging each activity in a data record so you can track foot traffic.

Each card is printed with your selected design and can either be issued to one specific individual or be created with business branding and logos for repeat use by visitors or guests.

What Are the Best Coatings for Durable RFID Cards?

Our custom RFID cards are manufactured from tough, high-grade waterproof plastic, made to standard credit card dimensions for easy storage and use. 

XRFID also produces customized bamboo RFID cards, which are water resistant and float, making them an excellent option for eco-friendly organizations, spas, and other event venues or businesses with pools or other water-based activities.

Bamboo RFID cards are available in a classic card shape or a round circular fob, with the same chip technology embedded in each token.

What Are the Main Uses for Custom RFID Cards?

Because your RFID cards are customized, they can be used in a huge number of capacities, with some of the most common being hotel room passes, event passes, security cards, locker access cards, and access passes for schools, colleges, universities, warehouses, manufacturing plants, and storage facilities.

Cards can also be used as a data tracking tool, with RFID chips used in logistics to track consignments.

Do I Need NFC or RFID Cards for My Business?

XRFID RFID cards are compatible with any contactless technology, including NFC (near-field communication) chips. These work very much like RFID chips but can be better suited to high-security applications and use a particular radio wave band within the RFID range.
