Original Abstract Submitted
An accessible card can provide access to an account. The account card can include sides, which are connected to form a shape, and a textured directional feature for providing access to an account. The textured directional feature can be associated with at least one side of the sides. The at least one side of the sides that is associated with the textured directional feature can include (i) a first surface roughness that is different than a second surface roughness associated with other sides of the sides, and (ii) a textured arrangement configured to indicate, via tactile interaction, an orientation of the account associated with the account card or a card type of the account card.
