The present invention relates to a process for producing an transparent or
translucent transaction device having multiple features, such as a
holographic foil, integrated circuit chip, RFID circuitry, silver
magnetic stripe with text on the magnetic stripe, opacity gradient, an
invisible optically recognizable compound, a translucent signature field
such that the RFID circuitry and signature on back of the device is
visible through the device body. The invisible optically recognizable
compound is an infrared ink and/or film, which can be detected by a
sensor found in an ATM or device manufacturing assembly line.
