Badge accessories are a key component of an effective ID card program. They can help protect cards from wear and tear, theft and loss. Accessories can increase security by presenting cards in a visible manner, and also make using cards more convenient. AlphaCard supplies an array of popular badge accessories including lanyards, reels and badge holders.


Lanyards come in a variety of lengths and colors. Custom woven or screen-printed lanyards are available for the ultimate in personalized branding. Worn around the neck, lanyards help cardholders keep track of cards. Also, they are a convenient solution for cards that need to be accessed frequently or for cards that need to be constantly visible. For environments where safety is a concern, consider using breakaway lanyards.
Another popular accessory is reels. Featuring retractable cords, reels help card holders keep track of cards. They are a popular solution for ski resort passes and other card programs that require frequent use of cards at scanners or readers.
Badge holders attach to clothing, presenting badges in a professional and easily visible manner. Made from plastic, badge holders provide a protective barrier and eliminate the need for cards to be hole-punched.
Choosing the right accessory for your needs can increase convenience and effectiveness of your ID card programs. When selecting badge accessories, consider the environment in which they will be worn and how cards will be used.
