3D refers to a printed image that shows depth as the viewing angle changes. In 3D, the picture's elements are positioned vertically on the lens in different levels so that an illusion of depth and perspective can be assigned to each of them. A good flip, motion or zoom effect is made up of images that flip back and forth or side to side as you turn the lenticular piece. |

Nitecrest offer a full range of special finishes from state of the art printing techniques to specialist in-line and off-line finishes such as those which we have listed to the right hand side. Please note this is an overview and not an exhaustive list. The consumer is becoming more demanding in their expectations from gift and loyalty cards; no longer do they want a standard plastic card, instead they are seeking out those which are offering something special and look superior. |

Open Loop gift cards provide both the consumer and the issuer with flexibility and choice. The virtue of open loop gift cards is that they allow the consumer choice of purchasing style and also location of spend; they can be purchased for example online and redeemed in high street locations or shopping malls.
Depending on the retail model, the cards may be magnetic stripe or EMV compliant.

Closed loop gift cards are primarily used to acquire incremental sales revenue and help promote consumer brand awareness for the respective retail brand. Through the issuance of a closed loop card, retailers can drive footfall and realise an increase in overall consumer spending as well as increased value of individual sales.
The perceived value of the card is key in the closed loop gift card retail business. The consumer is far more likely to increase their load value on a card of perceived higher value ie. lenticular, foil, glitter varnish etc.

Lenticular is the creation of an illusion of movement, depth and perspective within flat printed images. We achieve this illusion by manipulating flat images with sophisticated software before printing directly onto a sheet of material containing thousands of lenses called lenticules. These lenticules deceive the eye by allowing it to simultaneously view alternating sections of multiple flat images. Consequently the viewer of a lenticular image perceives movement, depth and perspective, where there is none!
Adding a special finish over and above a standard printed plastic card can significantly add value to the cards perception as a product to the consumer and therefore has the ability to drive sales of your product over the competition.
