Some companies use the gift card as a one-time promotional gift, while others prefer re-loadable cards in different amounts such as $25, $50 or $100. Either type can have an expiration date, if desired. Our gift cards can be printed in 1 to full color on both sides, and can be produced with a barcode or magnetic stripe programmed to work with your point of sale systems (credit card reader) software for tracking, re-loading and storing customer information (which can pulled up each time the card is swiped through the system.) Our cards can also be printed with a signature panel or numbering for customer identification purposes. Options for your Plastic Gift Cards: Lo or hi coercivity encoded magnetic stripes Encoding on track 1 & 2 or on tracks 2 & 3 High-quality thermal or ink jet bar coding Sequential numbering Control numbers Security scratch off panels for special promotions Surface offset printing High-polish over laminates.
