As well as needing identity cards for its staff, Oakwood also wanted a versatile and secure ID format for the park’s season ticket holders, and turned to Payne Security to devise an appropriate ID card system suitable for both groups. The key consideration was to ensure a fast, efficient means of providing cards ‘on the spot,’ and Oakwood were also keen to incorporate security devices to ensure the security and integrity of the cards.
Payne Security’s solution was to create secure base stock cards for both staff and season tickets, which are pre-printed to a secure design with the Oakwood logo and website information. The cards are then personalised on site by Oakwood using simple to use ID card equipment supplied by Payne Security. Once a photograph of the cardholder has been taken by webcam, Payne Security’s renowned ID Pro 7 software is used to position the image on the card template alongside essential details such as name, expiry date and – in the case of season ticket holders – the membership number. A Magicard Avalon Printer ensures a high-definition finish for the printed cards.
“The secure base stock cards are difficult to duplicate, meaning that we can quickly authenticate genuine card holders for improved safety and reduced risk of lost revenue from fake season tickets,” explains Stephanie Churchard, Marketing Manager at Oakwood Theme Park. “At the same time, the high-quality software and printer provided by Payne Security ensure that we can personalise cards quickly and effectively as soon as they are required.
“Throughout the process, Payne Security has delivered exceptional service and an impressive, cost-effective ID card solution,” she adds.
A tailored personal ID card solution supplied by Payne Security has provided Oakwood Theme Park with optimum flexibility in the production of secure cards for staff and regular visitors.
