Membership Card Printing

Helpful answers about printing personalised membership cards for clubs, gyms and organisations.

What is membership card printing?

Membership card printing is the process of producing customised cards for organisations, associations and membership bodies. Cards can be printed with logos, member details, barcodes, QR codes, magnetic stripes or RFID chips depending on how they will be used.

What are the options for printing membership cards?

You can choose from printed plastic membership cards, barcode or QR code cards, RFID contactless cards, and eco-friendly card materials such as recycled plastic, biodegradable PVC, paperboard or wood.

How much does membership card printing cost?

The cost of membership card printing depends on the quantity, card material, print requirements and level of personalisation. Simple printed cards are usually the most cost-effective option, while RFID cards, eco-friendly cards or personalised fulfilment services may cost more.

Do I need a printer for membership cards?

Not necessarily. You can either print membership cards in-house using an ID card printer, or outsource the printing to a specialist provider. Many organisations choose outsourced printing or fulfilment when they want to save time, reduce admin and issue cards professionally.


Card Features & Technology

Answers about RFID, barcodes, QR codes and choosing the right functionality for your cards.

Can membership cards include barcodes or QR codes?

Yes. Membership cards can be printed with barcodes or QR codes for scanning, check-ins, attendance tracking or linking to member records. This is a popular option for gyms, clubs, events and membership organisations.

Can membership cards include RFID chips?

Yes. RFID membership cards can be used for contactless access control, lockers, vending, payments or membership tracking. The right RFID chip depends on the system your organisation already uses.

What type of membership card is best for gyms?

Gyms often use RFID membership cards, key tags or wristbands because they can support door entry, locker access, vending and contactless check-ins. Standard printed membership cards can also work well if you only need visual ID or barcode scanning.

Can you print eco-friendly membership cards?

Yes. We offer eco-friendly card options including recycled plastic, biodegradable PVC, paperboard and wood. These are a good choice if your organisation wants its membership cards to reflect its sustainability values.


Fulfilment & Mailing

Useful answers if you need cards printed, personalised, packed and posted for you.

Can you print and send membership cards to our members?

Yes. Our membership card fulfilment service can include printing, personalisation, matching, packing and posting cards directly to your members, helping your team save time and reduce manual admin.

What is a card bank for membership cards?

A card bank allows you to order a larger batch of cards and hold some back for future members. When new members join, their details can be added and the cards can be issued without needing to start a new full print run each time.

Is membership card fulfilment suitable for new members joining throughout the year?

Yes. Fulfilment is ideal if members join regularly throughout the year. It allows new cards to be personalised and mailed as needed, rather than your team having to print, pack and post each card manually.

Can you help us choose the right membership card option?

Yes. If you are unsure whether you need printed plastic cards, RFID cards, eco-friendly cards, card banking or fulfilment, our team can help you choose the most practical and cost-effective option for your organisation.
