Technical data
Unlike chip or magnetic stripe cards, RFID cards can be read by a reader without the need for direct physical or visual contact. This allows for remote data retrieval by the RFID reader, with the reading distance depending on the specific frequency (LF, HF, or UHF).
RFID cards offer both high data security and the ability to control multiple applications, such as access control to fitness, spa, or wellness areas. Additionally, with a single card, you can manage functions such as time tracking, cashless payment in swimming pools or fitness studios, printer control, charging at charging stations, and much more.
Our company, iDTRONIC WELL FIT, provides a wide selection of RFID cards from leading manufacturers worldwide. With 20 years of experience, we are here to assist you in choosing the right RFID products. As a direct partner of NXP and LEGIC, we offer a range of options, from Hitag 1/2/S and EM4200-4550 to MIFARE® Classic/Plus/Ultralight/DESFire, NTAG213/215/216, LEGIC Prime & Advant, I-Code SLI S/X, Temic 5577, and Alien HG9 UHF cards at attractive prices!

SMART cards are plastic cards that contain a microprocessor and have their own operating system. They can have alternative interfaces, such as a contact chip with a processor and/or an RFID antenna. The most commonly used SMART card in daily life is the debit or credit card, which ensures significantly enhanced data security through its own operating systems and additional cryptography.
CONTACT CHIP cards contain an integrated visible chip that functions as a memory medium. Since it can store data such as name, address, or membership number, CONTACT CHIP cards are suitable for applications such as gym membership cards, season passes in amusement parks, or company/employee identification cards. Additionally, they can be used for time tracking or access control.
PVC plastic cards with a magnetic stripe or barcode are excellent for customer loyalty, membership, or gift cards, and are also commonly used for event access control.

Technical data
RFID cards, also known as transponder cards, are laminated PVC plastic cards that consist of a chip with a radio frequency antenna (RFID). The antenna, which is not visible to the users, is embedded within the plastic cards.
Unlike chip or magnetic stripe cards, RFID cards can be read by a reader without the need for direct physical or visual contact. This allows for remote data retrieval by the RFID reader, with the reading distance depending on the specific frequency (LF, HF, or UHF).
RFID cards offer both high data security and the ability to control multiple applications, such as access control to fitness, spa, or wellness areas. Additionally, with a single card, you can manage functions such as time tracking, cashless payment in swimming pools or fitness studios, printer control, charging at charging stations, and much more.

Hybrid cards refer to RFID cards that combine two technologies within a single card. There are various configuration options for hybrid cards, such as combining an RFID chip with a barcode or including two RFID chips, such as an HF and an LF chip.
As a result, hybrid cards can be particularly useful in many areas such as fitness studios, saunas, thermal baths, and swimming pools.
Additional combination options include:
- NXP chip cards (MIFARE® Classic, Plus, DESFire, Ultralight, Ultralight C, Hitag)
- LEGIC chip cards (LEGIC prime, LEGIC advant, LEGIC CTC)
- EM Microelectronic chip cards (EM4105-EM4450)
Smart cards are plastic cards that contain a microprocessor and have their own operating system. They can have alternative interfaces such as a contact chip with a processor and/or RFID antenna. The most commonly used smart card in everyday life is the EC card or credit card. These cards provide significantly enhanced data security through their own operating systems and additional cryptography.
Contact chip cards contain a visible integrated chip that serves as a memory medium. Since they can store data such as name, address, or membership number, contact chip cards are suitable for applications such as gym membership cards, season passes for amusement parks, or company/employee identification cards. Additionally, they can also be used for time tracking or access control.
PVC plastic cards with a magnetic stripe or barcode are excellent for use as customer, membership, or gift cards, and are also commonly used for access control at events. We offer all popular 1D and 2D barcode types, including QR codes, and the standard LoCo and HiCo magnetic stripes.
Thanks to our diverse manufacturing capabilities, we can accommodate your individual preferences and requirements regarding the design, printing, and engraving of the cards.

Available RFID cards can be used for various applications, such as: Membership cards for gyms, access cards for swimming pools, spas and thermal baths, key cards for lockers in gyms and leisure pools, lift cards, charging cards for e-mobility applications.
Here is an overview of all the options:
- Printed in your company or institution’s individual corporate design (high-quality CMYK offset printing, optionally with special colors/finishes)
- Writable fields, photo ID, name personalization
- Card perforations for attachment to a lanyard/keychain
- Professional encoding: UIDs, employee numbers, access rights, balance, etc.
- Hybrid solutions are also possible: Additional integration of QR/barcodes, magnetic stripes (LoCo, HiCo, Super HicCo), or dual-chip cards (2 RFID chips with different frequency ranges, e.g., UHF for parking access, HF for building access, etc.)
In addition to the production of secure RFID chip cards, we also provide the correct encoding services to ensure that your plastic cards with chips are properly written and can be recognized and read by your readers as intended.
Initializing RFID cards
This process involves writing the card with static personalization without individualization. For example, applications are loaded onto the card, and basic settings are made.
Encoding RFID cards
This process involves storing individual data of different card users on the cards. This allows authorizations to be associated with the cardholder and can be properly recognized. During chip encoding, custom-developed applications or just the UID number can be stored on the RFID card. We are happy to prepare the data sets according to your requirements with our encoding service.

NFC stands for Near Field Communication and also uses RFID protocols.
The main difference between the technologies is that an NFC device can act not only as a reader but also as a tag or card (Card Emulation Mode). In Peer-to-Peer mode, NFC devices can also exchange information with each other.
NFC operates at the same frequency as HF RFID systems, which is 13.56 MHz.
The RFID chip card functions similarly to any other RFID transponder. An RFID transponder consists of an antenna and a chip that stores all the data. When the RFID card is held near a reader, the electrical field provides power to the card through induction. This allows the RFID card to transmit data using the antenna
