How do Automotive Companies use ID Card Systems?
Staff IDProper identification in an automotive setting is a key component of maintaining secure operations, particularly visual identification. ID cards can be worn by automotive employees at all times as well as by temp workers or subcontractors at a body shop, for example. Typically, ID cards are worn on badge reels or lanyards by the employee and should be highly visible to managers and the public.

Access ControlYou’ll find that a broad variety of automotive companies heavily rely on access control cards to ensure only authorized individuals have the ability to enter certain areas of a building or specific area such as a warehouse. These are usually automotive employees and managers. An access control card is a sure-fire way to prevent unauthorized persons such as intruders from gaining access to restricted areas and compromising security.

Holiday / Thank You TagsHoliday & thank you cards are an excellent way for automotive companies, especially dealerships, to show appreciation to their customers for purchasing cars. One of the many unique aspects of ID cards is that they work wonderfully as holiday and thank you cards (typically referred to as greeting tags). These cards can be personalized for the holidays, and sent out to previous and current customers as a way to thank them.

Business CardsLet’s face it — many of today’s business cards are flimsy and easily tear, especially when crammed inside a wallet. For professions within the security industry it is absolutely essential to have high-quality business cards to hand out to customers, friends, and acquaintances. Business cards printed on a thin PVC card are sturdy, meant to last, and are the perfect solution for a long-lasting business card.

Time and AttendanceMany professionals within the automotive industry are paid hourly versus paid a yearly salary. Thus, time and attendance ID cards ensure that the employee clocking in on their shift is there on time and has been accounted for. Time and attendance cards often use magnetic stripes or barcodes that are scanned by a reader and usually work with an existing tracking software program.

Promotional Cards & CouponsID cards work wonderfully as promotional cards or coupons. For example, many car shops will hand out 10% promotional cards for customers use on their next service, or to pass along to a friend. It’s a sure-fire way of generating new business and keeping current customers happy and satisfied. Remember, there’s no such thing as too many coupons and promotions, so keep them coming with the convenience of ID cards!
