HiCo- magnetic cards offers unlike to LoCo-magnetic cards a greater protection against a potential loss of data, since they are being encoded with a higher magnetic field. A magnetic stripe is divided into different tracks (up to 3 tracks).
Track 1 and 2 are only specified for reading (track 1 max. 79 alphanumeric characters, track 2 max. 40 numeric characters), and track 3 is used for data recording (max. 107 numeric characters).
Magnetic stripe cards are available in different versions:
- LoCo – 300 Oe (Oerstedt)
- HiCo – 2.750 Oe (Oerstedt)
- HiCo – 4.000 Oe (Oerstedt)
