Mass Reissue of all Magnetic Cards!

Ray,

Our credit union routinely re-issues hundreds if not thousands of magnetic stripe cards (ATM, Visa) to upgrade the logo, replace expired cards or due to wear and tear. Believe you me, wear and tear accounts for a significant number of the reissued cards. I believe that the outstanding magnetic cards be easily replaced by the new and improved KM Super Card by all magnetic card issuers in two ways:

1) Two stripes - old & new on the same card during the transition period.

2) Reissue with some future start date on the card so that the reader industry can retro-fit its readers to read both types of media.

Imagine the sales UPGD will see as a result.

IMHO - It will happen!

Best O'Luck,

Tom
