Do you send samples of your custom plastic cards and key tags?
Yes. We offer samples of all our custom plastic gift, loyalty, membership cards, and key tags as well as our custom carriers and sleeves. Samples can be requested using our Request Samples form.
Why should I consider a key tag and card combo rather than a single key tag?
Plastic combo card and key tags offer two unique and convenient card options for membership and loyalty program identification: a card for a wallet and a key tag(s) for a key ring. Both the card and the key tags have identical encoding/numbering.
Will gift cards really help my business make money?
Yes. Here’s how: Gift card programs drive new business to your store, customers usually spend more than the balance of the card when they shop, and many customers leave an unspent balance on their gift cards. Customized plastic cards are also a great way to build brand loyalty, receive “free” advertising for your business, and the fees for creating and implementing a gift card program are usually cheaper than the fees for processing credit card payments. By increasing revenue and decreasing cost, you set yourself up to make more money.
