What is a magnetic card?

A magnetic stripe card, or magnetic card, is a plastic card with a magnetic stripe on the back.

Magnetic cards are virtually the veteran of the identification media. They are defined by the ISO standards 7810 and 7811 in dimension of the card and position of the magnetic stripe.

Structure of the magnetic stripe

The magnetic strip is used for data storage and is divided into three tracks. The individual tracks differ in character set and density.

Track 1

Stores up to 79 alphanumeric characters, such as name and address. The data density is 210 bpi. Track 1 can only be coded once - then it can only be read out.

Track 2

Stores up to 40 numeric characters (e.g., identification data). The data density is low at 75 bpi, but the track can be read even under difficult conditions. Track 2 can only be coded once, then only read out.

Track 3

Stores up to 107 numeric characters (e.g., last transaction data). Lane 3 can be coded several times.

Magnetic Cards Types

Magnetic cards are divided into the three different types LoCo, HiCo and Super HiCo. The distinction is made via the coercive field strength or the magnetizability of the magnetic strip. The unit of measure for measuring the magnetic field is Oersted (Oe).

LoCo magnetic cards

  • Encoded with 300 oersted
  • Magnetic stripe mostly brown
  • Susceptible to external magnetic influences
  • Applications: gift cards, bonus cards

HiCo magnetic cards

  • 2750 Oersted encoding
  • Magnetic stripe mostly black
  • Resistant to external magnetic influences
  • Fields of application: time recording, access control, credit cards

Super HiCo magnetic cards

  • 4000 Oersted coding
  • Magnetic stripe mostly black
  • Even more resistant to external magnetic influences
  • Fields of application: time recording, access control, credit cards
