Hotel Key Card Manufacturer in Shenzhen
Founded in 2013, Vigor Smartech manufactures custom printed plastic and RFID cards for international customers. We support new hotel openings, branded replacement card orders and hospitality supply programs, with production and shipping arranged around the approved specification.
RFID Hotel Key Cards
Contactless key cards with a chip and antenna selected for your hotel door-lock system. Confirm the exact chip, protocol and encoder requirements before manufacturing.
Magnetic Stripe Key Cards
Custom printed magnetic stripe hotel cards for supported swipe-card systems. Specify the stripe type, track format and any agreed encoding requirements.
Custom Printed Hotel Cards
Your logo, brand colors, guest instructions and printed QR codes, with glossy, matte or reviewed special finishes. Multiple artwork versions can be quoted together.
Choose the Right Card for Your Hotel Locks
Hotel key cards must match the locks, encoder and software used at your property. The same card appearance or operating frequency does not establish compatibility.
- Share the system details: lock manufacturer and model, encoder model and the approved card or chip specification.
- Confirm the construction: dimensions, thickness, material and RFID chip or magnetic stripe type.
- Test samples: encode and test cards on your own equipment before approving bulk production.
Your hotel or system provider normally issues guest access credentials. Any factory encoding must be defined and agreed for the project.
Not Sure Which Card You Need?
Start with the lock-system details or the approved specification from your current supplier. Tell us whether you need blank, custom printed or specifically encoded cards.
We will review suitable production options and the sample requirements with you.
Send Your Lock and Card DetailsHotel Branding, Materials & Finishing
Create a card that fits your hotel’s identity: full-color front and back printing, matte or glossy lamination, numbering, barcodes and selected foil or spot UV effects.
For alternative materials, discuss recycled PVC, PETG, PLA, wood or bamboo. Review durability, reader compatibility, appearance and the documentation required for your procurement policy.

Hotel Key Card Specifications for a Factory Quote
Use this checklist when requesting custom printed hotel key cards or comparing a replacement order. Send the approved specification from your hotel lock supplier and identify any details that still need review.
| Quantity & versions | Total quantity, quantity per design, and whether this is a new opening, repeat order or replacement card project. |
|---|---|
| Lock & encoder | Lock manufacturer and model, encoder model, software requirements and the approved card reference. |
| RFID or magnetic stripe | Exact RFID chip and protocol, or magnetic stripe type and track format. State whether cards are supplied unencoded or require an agreed encoding service. |
| Dimensions & material | Finished size, thickness with units, corner shape and material. Confirm the drawing and construction rather than ordering from a photograph. |
| Artwork & finish | Front and back artwork, orientation, brand color references, matte or glossy finish, and separate layers for any foil or spot UV. |
| Variable data | Numbering, barcodes or printed QR codes, with sample data and the required placement. A printed QR code for guest information does not establish door-lock compatibility. |
| Approval & testing | Named proof approver, any physical sample requirement, and hotel-side encoding and lock tests before bulk approval. |
| Packing & delivery | Cards per pack, sleeve requirements, delivery country and target arrival date. Production and transit are confirmed separately. |
From Quotation to Delivery

Minimum quantities, custom sample costs and production time are quoted for your project. Shipping time depends on the destination, courier and customs clearance.

Will your hotel key cards work with our door locks?
Compatibility depends on the lock model, card technology, chip or magnetic stripe specification, encoder and software configuration. Send the approved card specification from your lock supplier. Test samples on your hotel encoder and locks before approving bulk production.
Can you print our hotel logo and guest information?
Yes. Send front and back artwork for your logo, colors, guest instructions, contact details or printed QR code. Glossy, matte and selected decorative finishes can be reviewed. Proofs and any agreed samples are approved before manufacturing.
Do you supply RFID and magnetic stripe hotel key cards?
We review both RFID hotel key card projects and magnetic stripe card orders. The choice must match your existing lock and encoder system. Specify the exact chip or stripe requirement rather than ordering by appearance alone.
Can overseas card printers and hospitality distributors outsource orders to you?
Yes. We support overseas card printing companies and hospitality distributors, whether they own a factory or use external suppliers. Send orders needing added capacity, chip integration, special materials or finishing. Discuss confidentiality, unbranded packing and delivery instructions at quotation stage.
What are the minimum order quantity and lead time?
The minimum quantity and production time depend on the chip, material, printing, finishing, artwork versions and availability. Send your required quantity and arrival date for a project-specific quotation. Production and shipping times are confirmed separately.
Can we order recycled plastic or wood hotel key cards?
Recycled PVC, PETG, PLA, wood and bamboo options can be reviewed for hotel card projects. Confirm the construction, durability, reader compatibility and documentation you need. Material availability and any environmental claims are checked for the chosen specification.
