Currently, the cards come in eight different designs varying from utilitarian gray to colorful and expressive. The company has created a prototype and launched a Kickstarter campaign to add analytics capabilities to the cards. That will allow card owners to update information remotely — and keep tabs on how recipients are using it.
Once on the market, the cards will be sold in packs of 200 for $319. A more expensive version of the card that allows you to transfer data to the card wirelessly using NFC (Near Field Communication) will cost $379 for 200.
The campaign's goal was to raise $10,000. As of this writing, it has reached over $40,000 with 29 days left to go. The cards will begin shipping out to supporters in October 2014 on a first-come, first-serve basis.
