ID badges, made properly.

Prints through the manufacturer's driver to direct-to-card and retransfer printers, including HID Fargo, Evolis and Zebra.

One place for the whole badge office.

Four steps from a spreadsheet to a printed card: set up a dataset, add your people, design the card, print.

Records

Your people and their photos, ready to print.

Import a CSV with a zip of photos, or add people one at a time with a webcam. The import shows exactly what it will add, update and skip before it saves anything.

Card designer

One template. The card changes with the person on it.

Drag text, photos, barcodes and shapes onto the card and bind them to fields. Conditions show, hide or restyle any element, so one design covers staff, students and visitors.

Printing

Set up the printer once. Every card lands where it should.

A saved profile holds each printer's offsets, scale and back-side rotation, so nobody resets browser margins before a print run. Every card keeps its own print history.

Why switch

The small things that cost you an afternoon, fixed.

If you run a badge office on web-based card software today, you probably know the list on the left.

Resetting margins, scale and headers in each browser before the first print.
Saved printer profiles hold the offsets and scale for each printer, checked with an alignment test card.
Saving a dataset after every single field change.
Edit as many fields as you like and save once. Changes that would break existing records are refused with a reason.
Renaming a field and finding blank names on the next batch of cards.
Cards reference fields by ID, not by label. Rename freely.
Rules limited to "equal" and "not equal".
Conditions also handle contains, is empty, is one of, greater than and less than.
No record of who printed which card, or why it was reprinted.
Every card keeps a print history with copy numbers, and a reprint needs a reason.
Photo imports failing over a capital letter in a file path.
Photos in a zip are matched by path, by file name in any letter case, or by ID number.
