Magnetic Stripe Card Readers
Magnetic stripe data carrier technology is one of the most established and widely used of all the data capture technologies. Magnetic stripe card readers are characterised by the brown/black stripe to be found on the back of bank, credit and customer loyalty cards.
Magnetic stripe card technology has the following key attributes and limitations:
- Well established read/write technology
- Low to medium storage capability
- Low cost
- Durable
- Contact read required, generally requiring a standard card-based carrier form
