Membership Card Printers

"Want to promote your club or team and ensure that your members are the only people enjoying the benefits?"

All clubs need personalized membership cards, whether the clubs are commercial businesses such as Health Clubs, Night Clubs, Video Clubs, Golf Clubs, Auto Clubs, or Gyms, and even if they are non-commercial groups such as Sports Clubs, Fan Clubs, Discount Clubs, and Voluntary organizations.

Many small clubs still rely on paper membership cards, or old-fashioned peel-stick-and-laminate photo-card systems, which are time consuming to issue, and do not promote a professional image.

With a Magicard membership card printer and an appropriate digital camera and ID card issuing software, any club can now take efficient control of its member database, renewal fees, and access control, and can make a very strong promotional statement through the eye-catching full color card design.

Membership cards are usually Landscape in format and are designed to be carried in a purse or bill-fold, where space is limited. It is, however also possible to create a system based on the use of portrait format ID badges which are intended to be worn on the clothing or on sports bags for example. Membership cards of either format are sometimes attached to extending ID badge holders which allow the ID Card to be inserted in a card reader for authentication without the need to remove it from clothing.

Magicard membership card printers can print ID badges in either landscape or portrait format, and they can combine photo quality portraits, dazzling color graphics, and even barcodes or magstripe data encoding. The status and success of the club will be greatly enhanced by a well designed, colorful, card design with a high quality portrait and an attractive and clear "corporate identity".

Members are ambassadors for the club, and they will generate a lot of free promotional advertising if they are proud of their membership, and are eager to show off their membership cards.

Membership of your organisation is also valuable, and so it is important to protect plastic membership cards against forgery using Magicard's unique HoloKote and HoloPatch counterfeit protection security.

A well-designed plastic membership card is therefore a benefit, not a cost, for any club.

The encoding of data onto a photo ID card used for membership is a commonly required option. This data may be as simple as a unique ID pass number, or can be as complex as a biometric ID such as a thumb print. Electronic purses for applications such as vending, or the use of special facilities such as photocopying can also be incorporated.

The Magicard Rio (single sided) and Tango (double sided) membership card printers can be supplied in a format to handle all photo ID data encoding needs, including bar codes, magstripe, and contact or contactless smart cards.
