Fact Sheet: Metal Payment Cards

Laser-engraved metal cards from Fiserv can help you implement an affordable, turnkey metal card program, drive incremental revenue and differentiate your brand. In a wallet full of plastics, metal cards offer style and prestige that can help secure top-of-wallet positioning.


Consumer demand for style and status is driving the trend toward metal payment cards. The prestigious look and feel of metal cards can push them to the top of cardholder wallets and elevate your brand. By offering metal debit and credit card options, you can take card payment experiences to a new level.

Whether you need hundreds of cards or hundreds of thousands, we manage everything you need to create, manufacture and implement an affordable, turnkey metal card program. 

Metal cards from Fiserv have a metal core with PVC front and back. This combination offers a heavier weight and rigidity with a lower manufacturing cost than full metal cards. Front and back laser personalization is available to create the allure and quality cardholders expect.
