STEP 2

DETERMINE SECURITY

Determine the level
of visual security you
will need on your card

A color photo on a plain white card just
isn’t enough anymore.
Today, anyone with
a computer can create a legitimate-looking

ID card with ease. Proper card design can

help reduce your vulnerability to counterfeit

ID cards. Incorporating holographic

security elements that are difficult to

forge, yet easy to authenticate, should be

the first consideration in a secure card

design. There are choices for every need

and budget, from basic elements such

as a simple foil to sophisticated solutions

such as custom-designed holographic

overlaminates.

An authorized Fargo

integrator can be an
excellent resource for

determining the security
elements in your next
card design.
