Retail loyalty cards
Give customers a recognisable connection to your rewards programme. CardTech manufactures branded loyalty cards for the South African retail industry, supporting new launches, expansion and repeat supply.
Specify the artwork and card identifiers your programme needs, from printed membership numbers to barcodes or other agreed formats. Clear branding and consistent production help your cards work across participating stores.
Gift cards
Bring your brand into gifting occasions with professionally manufactured physical gift cards. Plan cards for everyday gifting, promotions or seasonal campaigns, with designs that fit your retail identity.
We agree the printed or encoded identifiers with your programme provider. Your gift-card platform handles activation, balances and redemption; CardTech supplies the physical cards to the agreed specification.
Membership cards
Make membership easy to recognise with durable, clearly printed cards. We manufacture cards for medical aid schemes, associations, clubs and other membership organisations.
Discuss branded card stock, personalised member details and replacement requirements with our team. We can plan card production around new member enrolment and ongoing programme needs.

A key CardTech specialisation
Medical aid membership card manufacturing
CardTech is well established in medical aid membership card manufacturing. We understand that these cards are an everyday point of reference for members and service providers, and that a dependable supply process matters long after the initial print run.
Clear member identification
Plan the card layout around the approved scheme branding and the information members need to present. We agree print areas, variable details and legibility requirements before production.
Ongoing member supply
Discuss new enrolments, replacements and changes in card design as part of your supply plan. Local manufacture helps your team respond as membership needs change.
Controlled personalisation
Agree the data format, approved proof and production checks with CardTech. Our team will arrange an appropriate handover process for any personalisation data required for the order.

Why local card manufacture makes a difference
Choosing locally manufactured cards supports more than your programme. It supports South African jobs, families and skills, while helping us build a more inclusive economy.
Supporting South African people
We employ South Africans, helping support the families who depend on those jobs. Even through difficult times, we remain committed to manufacturing here, developing local skills and contributing to a country where people of all backgrounds have the opportunity to thrive.
Manufacturing responsibly
We use as much solar electricity as possible to reduce our demand on the grid, and we responsibly recycle our production waste. Our KBA Genius 52UV press uses a specialised waterless offset printing process that eliminates the need for dampening solutions and their chemical additives, while reducing the use of cleaning agents. These are practical steps towards more responsible card manufacturing in South Africa.
Keeping your programme moving
Local manufacture also gives you direct access to our team, responsive service and dependable support for launches, replenishment and replacements. You get quality cards from a local partner, while your order helps sustain South African manufacturing and livelihoods.
Specify the cards your programme needs
We will help define the physical card and its personalisation, coordinating with your scheme administrator or system provider where needed.
- Branding and design: approved colours, artwork and front-and-back layouts.
- Card identification: membership numbers, serialisation, barcodes and variable printed details.
- System requirements: magnetic stripe or chip options where appropriate, with the format and compatibility agreed before production.
- Finish and security: discuss durability, security printing and suitable features for the intended use.
- Volume and delivery: initial quantities, repeat demand, target dates and any phased supply requirements.
