Issue High Security ID Credentials Faster, Easier, Smarter

Card Encoding Engine (CEE) is the first ID card software to offer a no-programming solution for chip and magnetic encoding as well as card personalization on a wide range of ID credentials. Unlike other photo ID software solutions, CEE is pre-configured to automate smart card encoding without requiring programming, scripts, or custom APIs, saving a card issuer $5,000 to $15,000 per card type. This powerful all-in-one card personalization solution includes all the standard features found in standard ID card software plus so much more. CEE supports the widest range of card technologies while featuring unique cost-saving utilities, pre-designed security background templates, and support for automatic data collection and industry standard interfaces without programming. CEE seamlessly connects with card configuration tools, biometric and biographic enrollment software, vetting services, credential management systems, and end-use applications for complete ID credential solutions. Card Encoding Engine combines everything you need to design, personalize and issue your cards in four organized workspaces and intuitive, point-and-click user interfaces.

CEE is a Windows-based solution that enables the graphic, magnetic, and electronic card personalization of variable and static data on contact and contactless smart cards (ISO 7816 and ISO 14443 A & B), 1D/2D barcodes (including QR codes), ICAO compliant MRZs, and magnetic stripes. The program is built to import data from a variety of sources, and it is optimized for swift biometric credential issuance. The software is built around standardized data elements found across a variety of id markets including driver licenses, health IDs, enterprise badging, education IDs, and a wide variety of government IDs—including national, civil, voting, and military identification. CEE is a central hub in a credential issuance system, exchanging data from a number of sources, for diverse functions including vetting or background checks, physical access system notification and card management systems.
