Export Cards to CSV file

When you want to print Cards on plastic/paper, you need to provide the necessary information for the Card Printing service.

This could be done using a CSV file. Clicking on the Icon csv.png icon lets you download all Card information in one file.

You can process this file later in MS Excel or other compatible software. Use the correct format for your Card manufacturer and send it to him.

The CSV file fields are:

  • Number
  • PIN
  • Balance
  • Sold
  • First_use
  • Daily_charge_paid_till

You can delete unnecessary fields and make it look as you need.
