The Complete RFID Key Card Solution for Hotels & Resorts
RFID room keys have become the guest credential of choice for hotels and resorts that need to balance convenience with robust security. Unlike traditional magnetic stripe cards, custom RFID cards require no swiping - a simple tap or wave near the reader grants entry. They're significantly harder to clone, fully reprogrammable between guests, and can be configured to grant tiered levels of access across your property, from guest rooms and fitness centers to conference suites and secure service corridors.
At ID&C, every card is custom printed with your hotel's branding and embedded with the RFID chip technology that matches your existing locking infrastructure. Our custom hotel key cards are 100% waterproof and built for multi-day stays. We offer a range of chip specifications - including MIFARE Classic 1K, MIFARE Classic 4K, MIFARE Ultralight AES, and MIFARE DESFire - and our team can advise on the right option for your property. As one of the few Assa Abloy-approved service providers for hotel key cards, we have the expertise to ensure compatibility is right before a single card is printed. For properties with urgent requirements, our Rush Service delivers production in as little as 3 days.
Custom RFID cards can also be configured to go beyond room access. Link each card to a guest's account to enable contactless payments at on-site restaurants, bars, spas, and retail outlets - reducing cash handling, speeding up transactions, and giving your team accurate data on guest spend across your property.

Frequently Asked Questions
What makes RFID hotel key cards better than magnetic stripe cards?
RFID key cards offer a significantly higher level of security than traditional magstripe room keys. They are harder to clone, require no physical swipe, and allow guests to open doors with a simple tap or wave. They also enable the hotel to configure tiered access levels across the property, track room access, and monitor facility usage - none of which is possible with a magstripe card.
Are your RFID key cards compatible with my hotel's locking system?
Yes. Our RFID room keys are compatible with all major hotel door lock manufacturers, including Assa Abloy Vingcard, Saflok/KABA, Onity, and Salto. If you're unsure about compatibility, we offer a complimentary door lock test kit - customers typically receive it within 3-6 days, so you can confirm fit before placing your full order.
What RFID chip options are available?
We offer a full range of chip technologies to match different property requirements, including MIFARE Classic 1K, MIFARE Classic 4K, MIFARE Ultralight, MIFARE Ultralight AES, and MIFARE DESFire. For most hotel access control applications, MIFARE Classic 1K is the most widely used specification. Our team can advise on the right chip to match your locking system and any additional features - such as cashless payments - that you want to support.
Which RFID chip offers the best data encryption?
NXP MIFARE AES offers the highest level of encryption and authentication of our available chip options, making it the strongest choice for properties with elevated security requirements. Our team can walk you through the full range and recommend the right specification for your property.
Can I customize the key cards with my hotel's branding?
Yes. Every card we produce is fully custom printed with your property's logo, colors, imagery, and any other design elements you require. Our complimentary in-house design service can manage the artwork process for more complex or premium finishes.
What is the minimum order quantity?
For our standard custom hotel key cards, the minimum order is 500 cards. Our Rush Service has a minimum of 100 cards, making it a practical option for smaller properties or urgent top-up requirements.
How long does production take?
Standard production takes 10-15 business days from artwork approval. For urgent requirements, our Rush Service can turn orders around in as little as 3 days. Expedited shipping is also available. Contact our team for a lead time specific to your order volume and specification.
Can key cards be used for cashless payments as well as room access?
Yes. Custom RFID cards can be linked to a guest's account to enable contactless transactions at on-site restaurants, bars, spas, and retail outlets. Charge data is transmitted to your central billing system for fast, accurate reconciliation - a particularly popular feature at all-inclusive and resort properties.
Can key cards be reprogrammed between guests?
Yes. Our RFID hotel key cards can be programmed and reprogrammed multiple times, making them cost-effective for repeat use across multiple guest stays. Re-encoding is handled directly by your front desk team using your existing property management system.
Is free shipping available on bulk orders?
Yes. ID&C offers free ground shipping for qualifying online bulk orders across the US (excluding Hawaii and Alaska). Contact our team for details on qualifying order volumes.
