What Sets Plastic Card ID Apart
PCID's portfolio shows a clear emphasis on specialty capabilities like clear plastic, custom shapes, and luxury metal cards, which create stand out experiences for customers and members. That attention to unique options positions brands for higher perceived value and long-term recognition in competitive marketplaces.
By aligning products with marketing goals, Plastic Card ID turns cards into revenue drivers; gift cards, for example, have driven measurable sales lift for many retailers. This is more than printing: it is a deliberate extension of client strategy and brand identity delivered through physical media.
Proven Performance and Reach
With over 50 million cards produced and service to 100,000 businesses, Plastic Card ID provides the scale and consistency companies demand. The organization's experience supports a broad set of use cases, from loyalty programs that increase repeat purchases to alumni and membership systems that reinforce community ties.
Clients appreciate the one-stop shop approach that bundles design, production, and fulfillment. Value-added services like custom carriers and full-service mailing enable campaigns that are simpler to execute and proven to convert more effectively than single-component alternatives.
Customer Service and Warranties
Superior service means responsive account management and production schedules that meet tight deadlines without sacrificing quality. Plastic Card ID offers clear warranty terms on manufacturing defects and stands behind the craftsmanship of every card, giving clients confidence in both product and process.
Whether a small program or a national rollout, projects receive the same rigorous QC standards and scalable logistics. That combination of accountability and flexibility is a cornerstone of the company's client retention and partner success stories.
Custom Luggage Tag Printing Solutions
Custom luggage tags are an ideal application for brands that want practical visibility on the move. Plastic Card ID designs tags that communicate identity and contact information clearly while withstanding travel conditions. Tags can be branded with logos, variable data, and creative shapes to align with marketing objectives.
From hotels and travel agencies to conference and event organizers, luggage tags provide a functional way to keep a brand top-of-mind during journeys. When designed and produced with care, they become durable collateral that guests and customers keep and use repeatedly.
Design Options and Personalization
Clients can choose from a wide range of materials, finishes, and attachment methods so each luggage tag fulfills both aesthetic and functional needs. Variable printing, barcodes, and personalization options enable trackable promotions and gated access when needed, maximizing campaign effectiveness.
Using data-driven personalization, campaigns can deliver individually customized tags that greet recipients by name or tie into loyalty programs. This level of detail creates a high-impact unboxing for recipients and reinforces brand dedication to thoughtful customer experiences.
Durability and Production Quality
Luggage tags must survive rough handling and exposure; Plastic Card ID selects materials and lamination methods that preserve color fidelity and prevent premature wear. The production workflow includes rigorous testing so tags perform reliably in real-world travel conditions and maintain a polished appearance over time.
Attention to finish and edge treatment distinguishes functional tags from disposable solutions. When durability is matched with refined design, luggage tags become a persistent brand signal that travelers carry across airports and hotels.

Whether clients seek economical PVC cards or high-end metal tags, the company's options ensure every project meets aesthetic and functional goals.
Specialty productions like clear plastic, custom die-cut shapes, and metal cards unlock distinctive customer experiences. By pairing the right substrate with professional finishing, brands present tactile pieces that express value and command attention in competitive settings.
Luxury and Specialty Materials
Metal cards, including stainless steel or gold-plated options, deliver unmistakable prestige and a premium tactile feel. These materials are ideal for VIP programs, limited-edition promotions, or corporate gifts where lasting impressions matter and recipients are likely to treasure the item.
Specialty materials are produced to strict tolerances and finish standards, and Plastic Card ID maintains detailed quality checks to ensure every unit reflects the desired luxury presentation without compromise.
Finishes, Coatings, and Security Features
Finishes affect both look and longevity: glossy coatings enhance color vibrancy while matte surfaces create understated sophistication. UV coatings and selective spot varnish choices enable eye-catching accents that highlight logos or names with striking contrast.
Additionally, security options such as holographic overlays, tamper-evident printing, and magnetic stripes can be integrated to balance attractiveness with anti-fraud protections. These choices support higher-stakes applications like access credentials and membership cards.
Custom Shapes, Sizes, and Prototyping
Custom die-cut shapes and unusual sizes allow brands to create pieces that are immediately memorable. PCID clients often opt for unique silhouettes or multi-part assemblies to differentiate promotional items and add collectible appeal, boosting return on marketing spend.
Prototyping and pre-production samples are available so teams can validate feel, fit, and visual impact before full production. This iterative approach reduces surprises and ensures the final batch aligns with brand expectations and campaign objectives.
Security, RFID, and Access Control Tags
For organizations that require both identity and convenience, Plastic Card ID integrates RFID, magnetic stripe, and smart card technologies into tags and badges.

RFID and Contactless Capabilities
Contactless cards and tags simplify access management and create frictionless experiences for users. By embedding industry-standard RFID chips, organizations can automate secure entry and streamline guest interactions while retaining the physical brand touchpoint that encourages recognition and loyalty.
Integration services include chip encoding, secure personalization, and testing to ensure reliable read ranges and data integrity. These technical controls are paired with high manufacturing standards to produce dependable credentials for large-scale deployments.
Secure Printing and Anti-Fraud Features
To protect identity and membership programs, Plastic Card ID offers advanced printing techniques such as microtext, UV inks, and holographic elements. Combining these features with serialization and secure variable data printing creates layers of protection against counterfeiting.
Clients benefit from clear documentation of security measures and recommended maintenance practices. This transparency helps facilities plan for lifecycle replacement and maintain compliance with internal or regulatory security standards.
Access Management Integration
Plastic Card ID partners with integrators and IT teams to ensure tags and cards work seamlessly within access control ecosystems. From encoding credentials to coordinating testing and deployment, the company's services reduce friction and accelerate program rollouts.
