==BIODEGRADABLE CARDS AND SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR MAKING THE SAME - A simplified explanation of the abstract==


This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18381983 titled 'BIODEGRADABLE CARDS AND SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR MAKING THE SAME

==Simplified Explanation==

The abstract describes a biodegradable card with a magnetic stripe and water-resistant coating. Here are some key points to note:

* Biodegradable substrate used for the card
* Magnetic particle slot for receiving magnetic particles
* High coercivity magnetic stripe with payment account data
* Biodegradable water-resistant coating covering the magnetic stripe

== Potential Applications ==
The technology could be used in environmentally friendly payment cards, access cards, or identification cards.

== Problems Solved ==
This innovation addresses the issue of plastic pollution by providing a biodegradable alternative to traditional plastic cards.

== Benefits ==
The biodegradable nature of the card reduces environmental impact and offers a sustainable solution for card-based transactions.

== Potential Commercial Applications ==
The technology could be applied in the banking, retail, and hospitality industries for issuing eco-friendly cards to customers.

== Possible Prior Art ==
One possible prior art could be biodegradable cards without magnetic stripes or water-resistant coatings.

=== Unanswered Questions ===

=== How does the biodegradability of the card compare to traditional plastic cards in terms of durability and longevity? ===
The article does not provide information on the durability and longevity of the biodegradable card compared to traditional plastic cards. 

=== Are there any specific regulations or certifications required for using biodegradable materials in payment cards? ===
The article does not mention any specific regulations or certifications needed for using biodegradable materials in payment cards.


==Original Abstract Submitted==

Example embodiments of biodegradable cards and systems and methods making the same are provided. A biodegradable card can comprise a biodegradable substrate, a magnetic particle slot within the biodegradable substrate configured to receive magnetic particles, a high coercivity magnetic stripe comprising magnetic particles printed on the biodegradable substrate and encoded with payment account data, and a biodegradable water resistant coating, wherein the coating covers at least the magnetic stripe.
