Plastic cards continue to be an essential business tool used by retailers, financial institutions and telecoms companies. Although their use has been challenged by digital cards and APP equivalents, consumers are still comfortable with a physical card tucked into their wallet.
Direct marketing, and specifically direct mail, continue to serve as important customer engagement channels. The inclusion of a plastic retail or membership card improves the perceived value of a mailed item and engages prospective customers through its personalised nature. Customers respond favourably to the power of a personalised card sent to them via direct mail.
Plastic cards are extremely versatile; from retail, membership and loyalty cards to access cards and gift cards. Gift cards are still popular; a gift of choice presented as a tangible item.
Bidvest Data is South Africa's leading supplier of personalised plastic cards. Bidvest Data supplies printed base cards manufactured from regular or recycled PVC. Its secure, state-of-the-art personalisation facility provides embossing, thermal printing, indent printing and magnetic stripe encoding options.
