Does the card have a magnetic stripe on the back?

Yes, our cards feature a functional Hi-Co (High Coercivity) magnetic stripe encoded with the same data found in the 2D barcode for double verification. While many modern scanners rely primarily on the PDF417 barcode, some older systems or specific point-of-sale terminals still use the magnetic stripe swipe. Our production line includes a dedicated encoding step for every card to ensure both data storage methods are active. The magnetic stripe is black and professionally bonded to the card, ensuring it does not peel or wear down with repeated use. We encode the tracks using the standard ISO/IEC 7813 format, which is the industry standard for identification cards. This dual-encoding feature is part of our commitment to providing a complete novelty product that passes both digital scans and physical swiping tests.
