Abstract
A stored value card and carrier system, including an optional carrier, an inactive stored value card attached to the carrier, and a label, in which the label is removably adhered to at least a portion of the stored value card and at least a portion of the carrier, and the label is capable of indicating removal from the stored value card and the carrier or other tampering.
Claims23
A stored value card and carrier system, the system comprising:
- a carrier;
- a stored value card attached to the carrier;
- and
- a label adhered to at least one of a portion of the stored value card, a portion of the carrier, and/or an insert contained within the carrier, wherein the label includes a foil layer with etched text and/or graphics formed thereon, and an adhesive layer,
- wherein at least partial removal of the label at least partially distorts the etched text and or graphics to optically indicate tampering with the system.

A tamper evident label comprising:
- a tamper indicating composite layer capable of indicating tampering, wherein the composite layer includes a foil material etched with at least one of verbiage and proprietary graphics;
- and
- a layer of removable adhesive proximate the tamper indicating layer.
A stored value card containing a tamper evident label comprising:
- a stored value card including data comprising at least one of a PIN, PAN, name, or other identifying information;
- and
- at least one tamper evident label adhered to at least one of a portion of the stored value card, the at least one tamper evident label capable of indicating tampering,
- wherein the label includes a foil layer with etched text and/or graphics formed thereon, and
- wherein at least partial removal of the label at least partially distorts the etched text and or graphics of the foil layer to optically indicate tampering with the stored value card.
2 more elements
A stored value card and carrier system, the system comprising:
- a carrier including structure defining a pull tab, the pull tab being irreversibly shiftable between a closed position and an opened position;
- a stored value card coupled to the carrier;
- activation indicia applied to at least one of the stored value card and an interior surface of the carrier such that at least a portion of the activation indicia is obscured when by the carrier when the pull tab is in the closed position;
- and
- a tamper evident label covering and obscuring at least a portion of the activation indicia such that the information is unusable or unreadable until the pull tab is in the opened position and at least a portion of the label is removed,
- wherein at least partial removal of the label at least partially distorts the tamper evident label to optically indicate tampering with the system.
