CardPresso XL Software

CardPresso XL ID Card Software – Enterprise-Level Power and Full Encoding Control

CardPresso XL is built for complex ID card programs that demand advanced encoding, live database integration, and full automation. It’s the premium choice for organisations that need precision, scale, and security. With everything from the XM edition included — and powerful new tools like advanced smartcard encoding, custom scripts, and user management — XL gives you total control over your ID system from design to deployment. Whether you’re managing thousands of employees, running a national membership system, or issuing secure access cards, CardPresso XL delivers enterprise-grade capability in a user-friendly package.

Smartcard Encoding with Full Flexibility

CardPresso XL supports advanced encoding for contactless and chip-based smart cards. This includes MIFARE®, DESFire®, and other high-security credentials, using direct integration with your access control system. You can build custom encoding workflows and use encoding plug-ins to streamline the process. It’s perfect for businesses that need to issue ID cards with embedded access, payment, or personal data securely and efficiently.

Script Editor for Custom Logic and Workflows

CardPresso XL supports multi-user setups with optional network licensing, making it easy to roll out across departments or workstations. You can assign user roles, restrict access to specific features, and manage licensing centrally. This is essential for larger organisations where multiple people are involved in card issuance, design, or approval.

Secure ID Management with Advanced Filters

The software allows deep control over your data using advanced filtering, sorting, and grouping options. You can define rules that automatically assign card layouts, images, or encoded data based on values in the database. For example, a single project file can generate different card types for interns, employees, and visitors — each with different levels of access and branding.

Integrated Signature Capture and Biometrics

CardPresso XL supports electronic signature capture and biometric image handling. You can connect supported signature pads to directly record signatures into the database and onto cards. This is ideal for contracts, visitor passes, or security credentials where proof of identity is required.

High-Volume Production Ready

When you’re printing thousands of cards, stability and speed matter. CardPresso XL is optimised for high-volume production environments. It works with all major card printers and can be paired with automatic feeders, encoders, and laminators for end-to-end production.
