What Is a Bluetooth iBeacon Tracking Card?

A Bluetooth iBeacon Tracking Card is a card-shaped BLE beacon that broadcasts an identifier for compatible devices and applications to detect. It is designed for deployments where a thin, portable beacon format is useful for identification, proximity-based interactions or tracking-related workflows.

The card uses Bluetooth Low Energy communication in the 2.4 GHz band. The receiving device or software system processes detected beacon signals to support the intended application.

The card itself does not independently provide GPS coordinates. Positioning performance depends on the receiving device, receiver or gateway placement, application logic and the deployed positioning infrastructure.

Typical system components include:

lBeacon card: Broadcasts the configured beacon identifier.

lMobile device or BLE receiver: Detects the transmitted signals.

lApplication or platform: Interprets beacon information and connects it with the relevant business workflow.

lOptional positioning infrastructure: Supports deployments that need systematic indoor location estimation.

For iBeacon deployments, the identifier can use a 128-bit Proximity UUID and 16-bit Major and Minor values to identify a beacon group and distinguish individual beacons within that group.

Bluetooth iBeacon Tracking Card Specifications

The following table consolidates the configurations and parameters listed on the current RFIDKST product page.

The optional RFID frequency must be matched to the selected hardware and the target reader or access-control system. The available configurations should be specified clearly in quotations and product documentation.

Bluetooth Beacon and Optional RFID Access Control

The Bluetooth iBeacon Tracking Card can be configured for BLE beacon applications, with optional RFID functionality for compatible access-control requirements.

BLE and RFID perform different functions:

lBluetooth Low Energy: Transmits beacon signals that compatible devices and software can detect.

lRFID access control: Supports identification through compatible RFID readers and access-control systems.

lCombined configurations: Bring BLE beacon functionality and an RFID function together in the same card design, when supported by the selected hardware version.

The listed RFID frequency options are 13.56 MHz and 125 kHz. These are different frequency families, and the correct selection depends on the target reader, chip, protocol and application requirements.

When requesting a quotation, specify the intended access-control system and reader model so the product configuration can be matched to your project.

Applications of Bluetooth iBeacon Tracking Cards

Indoor Positioning and Proximity Detection

Use BLE beacon cards in indoor positioning or proximity-based systems where compatible receivers and software process the transmitted beacon signals. The final positioning capability depends on the deployment architecture and receiver infrastructure.

Conferences, Trade Shows and Events

A card-based beacon can support event workflows such as proximity interactions, attendee-related services and location-triggered application features. The required experience depends on the mobile application and event platform.

Personnel and Asset Tracking

Beacon cards can be used as identifiable devices within tracking systems that detect BLE broadcasts. The application and receiving infrastructure determine how detected signals are associated with people, assets or operational events.

Parking and Location-Based Services

In parking and other location-based environments, beacon signals can support proximity detection and system-specific workflows. Coverage, detection and positioning performance depend on the receiver layout and software implementation.

Intelligent Hotels and Access-Control Projects

BLE functionality can support mobile or proximity-based interactions, while the optional RFID configuration can serve compatible access-control applications. The RFID frequency and protocol must match the deployed reader system.

These applications provide a basis for project evaluation. The required software, receivers, gateways and RFID hardware should be defined before the configuration is finalized.

SDK, Firmware and Configuration Support

Kaisere provides developer-support resources for Bluetooth iBeacon Tracking Card projects, including SDK, firmware, demo app, configuration app and instructions.

These resources help technical teams evaluate the beacon configuration and plan integration with their application or deployment platform.

The configuration app also supports password changes according to the product's published functionality.

For a smooth integration process, buyers should define the following requirements before development:

lTarget mobile platform and application environment

lBeacon identification and configuration requirements

lRequired broadcast interval and power settings

lReceiver, gateway or positioning infrastructure

lOptional RFID requirements and reader compatibility

lFirmware, SDK and source-code deliverables needed for the project

The development resources should be matched to the selected product version and the customer's system architecture.

For OEM projects, Kaisere Technology offers a route to discuss card design and configuration requirements for Bluetooth iBeacon Tracking Card applications.

Customization planning can cover the product options listed for the platform, including:

The selected hardware, functional requirements and sample approval criteria should be agreed before mass production.

For a faster quotation, send your target application, preferred card thickness, battery requirements, RFID requirements and expected order quantity together with your inquiry.

Manufacturing Capability and Quality Assurance

Kaisere Technology combines smart card manufacturing experience with cold lamination processing for card products and customized projects.

For Bluetooth iBeacon Tracking Card projects, manufacturing planning involves the selected card structure, embedded electronic components, battery configuration, charging design and final product requirements.

Our company-wide manufacturing background supports the evaluation of customized card projects, from initial requirements and sample review to production planning and quality documentation.

For B2B procurement, quality requirements should be defined against the approved product configuration. Relevant inspection activities may include:

lCard dimension and thickness inspection

lPrinted artwork and surface appearance checks

lBLE functionality and configuration checks

lCharging function inspection

lInspection of the optional RFID function

lFinal product inspection against the agreed specifications

Quality-control documentation and acceptance criteria should be aligned with the requirements of each order.

Manufacturer Profile

Kaisere Technology was established in 2003 and operates a 10,000 m² factory. The company reports a company-wide production capacity of more than 12 million RFID products per month and serves customers in more than 100 countries.

These figures describe company-wide manufacturing and export operations, rather than a dedicated monthly capacity for the Bluetooth iBeacon Tracking Card alone.

Certifications and Product Compliance

Kaisere maintains ISO, CE and RoHS certificate documentation within its applicable company and product scope.

For procurement projects, buyers should identify the destination market and the applicable product requirements. Relevant documentation should match the product model, configuration and intended use.

For Bluetooth cards containing rechargeable lithium batteries, the shipping arrangement and battery documentation must also align with the applicable transport requirements.

Contact our team to obtain the documentation relevant to your selected configuration and project.
