We print the cards for you and there's no minimum order!

The cost of card printers and ID card systems has come down dramatically over the years, but for a company with only a few employees, or a club with only a few members, or a loyalty voucher type card, owning such a system still may not be cost effective. In this instance, we print the cards for you!

How does the ID Card Bureau service work?

It's simple. You send in your logo, text or preferred image including any employee details and photograph, we print the cards and send them back to you.

In what format would we need to send the data?

There are several ways:

PIF (Photographic Input Form) - this is the traditional way. You complete a form by hand and attach a photograph. We key the data in to our system and scan the photo.
Electronically - if you already have a personnel or payroll system, you may be able to export the data to a file. We can import the file and scan photos or import them from file too.
Mosaic for Windows - we can install the same ID card software that we use to capture and print in the bureau. You enter the data and capture the photos yourself and we provide software to export it all.

Can the data be sent by email?

Of course! We would only recommend sending several photos over the Internet on a Broadband connection.

Card accessories are available to use with your cards; we offer coloured cardholders, plain and custom printed lanyards.

Many card accessories can be purchased from stock including Pre-Printed staff and visitor lanyards. In addition, we offer Pantone colour matched and other custom logo designed lanyards, retractable badge reels and cardholder accessories.
