Overview: Pre-Laminated Smart Card Core with RFID + LED Modules

The LED Prelam Inlay is a pre-laminated smart card core that combines RFID electronics with embedded LED modules.

Layers are fused under heat and pressure, embedding the chip, antenna, and LEDs into a durable material. This solution enables secure contactless use while LEDs light up to provide visual feedback, enhance branding, and improve user experience.

Available in both standard LED and blinking LED configurations, this inlay sheet is ideal for card manufacturers who want to add an interactive visual element to their contactless products.
