Magnetic Stripe Credit Card, a credit card sheet with several magnetic stripes, is widely used in bank cards, credit cards, debit cards, and other applications. This card stores and transmits data through the magnetic information on the stripes to fulfill the transaction needs of on-line or off-line vending terminals.
A magnetic stripe credit card is a plastic card with a magnetic stripe that uses magnetic stripe technology to store data on a payment card. A credit card company, bank or financial institution usually issues it. The magnetic stripe is located on the back of the card and records information about the cardholder, such as account number, cardholder name, and expiration date, through the magnetic material. This information is used for authentication and transaction processing in the transaction terminal equipment (POS machine, ATM). Magnetic stripe credit cards must be swiped on a card reader when in use. The card reader reads the information in the magnetic stripe to complete payment or identity verification.
Magnetic Stripe Location: It is usually one or two parallel black/gold/silver magnetic strips on the back of the card. There are three tracks (Track 1, Track 2, Track 3), each of which can store different types of information.
Track 1: Usually contains character information such as cardholder name and account number.
Track 2: Mainly stores account number and expiration date information in compressed format.
Track 3: Generally used sparingly and can store additional security information or additional data.
