There are two types of magnetic stripe cards, each with a different level of coercivity:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>HiCo (High Coercivity) magnetic stripes provide a higher level of protection against damage that can be caused by external magnetic fields.<\/li><li>LoCo (Low Coercivity) magnetic stripes are less resistant to external magnetic fields, but have the advantage of being less costly.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">High coercivity magnetic stripes are harder to erase and therefore more appropriate for cards that are used frequently or that require greater durability. They are the preferred type for new applications, despite their slightly higher cost.<br>Low coercivity magnetic stripes require a lesser amount of magnetic energy for recording, making the writing systems for low coercivity cards less costly than machines capable of recording high coercivity magnetic stripes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION During the encoding process, particles are magnetized in the direction of the north or south pole.
