Discover how our enhanced tribal cards provide a seamless and secure travel experience for Tribal Nations, like The Chickasaw Nation, ensuring compliance with WHTI regulations.

Complete Enhanced Tribal Card Solutions

Initial Card Validation

We produce test cards necessary as the first step to validate RFID sensitivity, MRZ Laser Engraving, and programming accuracy before production.

Card Design

We create fully custom ETC cards designed to integrate advanced security elements directly into the layout, ensuring compliant identity verification.

Advanced Security Features

Our cards offer robust security features that ensure the identity of cardholders is verified accurately and efficiently, enhancing trust and safety.

Secure Card Manufacturing

Once all approvals are complete, we manufacture your custom ETC cards with your advanced security design to exact specifications. Each card is delivered ready for RFID encoding, laser engraving, and streamlined issuance to your tribal members.

RFID Encoding System

Designed to meet the Western Hemisphere Travel Initiative (WHTI) standards, we provide RFID software and hardware solutions to facilitate the encoding of the GS1 Global Document Type Identifier within ETC cards, for smooth cross-border travel.

MRZ Laser Engraving Solutions

Our laser engraving process permanently embeds variable data into the polycarbonate cards, delivering the highest level of durability and security. We offer laser engraving machines and software for you to complete the MRZ engraving component.

ETC Compliant RFID Cards

Standard RFID technology often lacks sufficient Power on Tag (PoT) to reliably activate the card under real-world conditions. Our proprietary passive RFID architecture is engineered to overcome these limitations, minimizing cross-lane read interference while ensuring consistent performance and compliance with sensitivity testing.

All ETC-compliant RFID cards are rigorously validated to ensure full alignment with DHS and CBP requirements. Each card undergoes comprehensive testing, including check digit verification, RFID performance validation, MRZ/OCR accuracy, and detailed visual inspection—delivering reliable, high-integrity credentials across both polycarbonate and composite constructions.
