Carriers

Secure Carriers

Gift cards remain one of the most successful retail products, but like any prepaid product they benefit from packaging that protects card details before purchase.

Certus manufactures secure card carriers that help protect gift card programmes throughout the retail journey. Our solutions prevent unauthorised access to card numbers or PINs while cards are on display, helping brands maintain customer confidence and reduce the risk of tampering.

From advanced tamper-evident technologies like PaperBurstTech to practical fraud-reducing formats such as Peel & Reveal, our carriers are designed to balance security, retail presentation and operational efficiency.

Introducing

Paperbursttech®

Our award-winning tamper-evident carrier technology sets a new standard in gift card protection. By sealing card details beneath a tear-open paper layer, Paperburst Tech helps brands safeguard card programmes and maintain customer confidence at the point of sale.

Secure Carrier Options

Different programmes require different levels of protection. Our secure carrier formats and integrated security features allow you to design carriers that safeguard card details while maintaining strong retail presentation.

Secure Carrier Formats

Certus offers a range of carrier formats designed to protect card details while maintaining strong retail presentation. From fully tamper-evident solutions to simple protective formats, our carriers can be tailored to suit the level of security required for your programme.

Whether cards are displayed in busy retail environments or distributed through controlled channels, secure carriers help protect card numbers and PINs before purchase while maintaining customer confidence.

Paperbursttech®

Our award-winning tamper-evident carrier technology designed to prevent unauthorised access to card details before purchase. A sealed paper layer protects sensitive information and must be torn open to reveal the card number or PIN, making interference immediately visible.

Ideal for large-scale gift card programmes.

Peel & Reveal

A practical carrier format that protects card details beneath a sealed panel that is opened after purchase. Peel & Reveal helps reduce opportunistic tampering while maintaining simple retail presentation. Ideal for programmes where additional protection is beneficial without requiring full tamper-evident technology.

Security Labels & Protective Features

In addition to secure carrier formats, Certus can incorporate a range of security labels and protective features into many of our standard carriers.

These features help protect sensitive card details while cards are on display, providing an additional layer of protection against tampering or unauthorised access.

Available options include:

Security labels covering card numbers or PIN panels

Scratch panels protecting PIN codes

Multiple barcodes allowing separate activation and redemption processes

Design-matched security features that integrate with your artwork to create discreet tamper-evident solutions
