• Before submitting the order, cardholders will view a sample of their card, including any customization you provide.
• If cardholders want a designer card, but don't want to submit their own image, they can select from a library of up to ten pre-designed cards that you have selected.

 

The ordering process

  Design Group site that's branded with your institution's logo and
  colors.

  Check Card, etc.) and is guided through the process of uploading an
  image or selecting a pre-designed card.

  approved requests to Pemco in your card issue file.
