Frequently asked question
We convert your plastic payment card into a luxurious metal card!
- We are physically transferring your EMV chip from your old card.
- We are also transferring the data from your magnetic strip.
- Is it working? The short answer is NO.
- Your new card will be made entirely from Metal, and even if the Tap to Pay coil is embedded into your EMV chip, it’s hard for the signal to pass-through the metal in order to make the transaction.
- You will get however way more compliments of your metal card, how heavy it is when you hand it over to your bartender 😉.
- You can of course still use the Tap to Pay (NFC) function on your mobile device (if your bank supports mobile payments).
When you decide to order your new metal card through our online card builder you will need to select what is the chip size of your current plastic card which you are planning to convert into a metal one.
It is very important to pick the correct size when ordering.
Please make sure to double check the size of your plastic card chip, before continuing to the next steps since it can be that we don’t have in stock the desired color your want for the chip size of your card.
Our card builder is 99% always up to date with our stock check.
If we don’t have the selected chip size metal card color in stock you can select a different color instead, or wait until we restock!
If you don’t pay attention to the chip size, and we receive a different plastic chip card (the one which you are sending it to us to be converted) regarding of your card order, we will contact you as soon as possible so we can find the best solution for you.
Get in touch with us, so we can discuss about your artwork which you’ll want to be on your metal card.

If you want to hide some data and get a custom engraved back design, please get in touch with us so we can work on your custom design!
Once you receive your new metal card from us, you will also get your plastic which you sent to us for converting it into a metal.
Some other companies which are doing similar services as we do, don’t really care about details, and how to achieve the best solution of removing the EMV chip from the plastic without distorting/bending/burning your card.
Other competitors return the plastic card to their clients distorted/bended/burned out, which in our opinion is not that satisfying from the client endpoint.
You can still keep your old plastic card in your drawer.
Everywhere!
ATM’s and POS terminals.
Please avoid old and outdated looking ATM’s.
We ship worldwide!
