Metal transaction cards with removable indicia are provided. In some approaches, a transaction card may include a metal body having a first main side and a second main side, and an identification chip coupled to the first main side of the metal body. The transaction card may further include an exterior layer along the second main side, the exterior layer containing identifying indicia, wherein at least a portion of the exterior layer is removable from the second main side by at least one of: a set of perforations through the exterior layer, and a channel provided along an outer edge of the second main side.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
The invention claimed is: 1. A contactless card, comprising: a metal body having a first main side and a second main side; and an exterior layer overlaying an entirety of the second main side, the exterior layer including identifying indicia, wherein the entire exterior layer is removable from the second main side by using a cavity between the exterior layer and a channel recessed into the second main side. 2. The contactless card of claim 1 , wherein the exterior layer comprises a magnetic stripe. 3. The contactless card of claim 1 , wherein the identifying indicia comprises a plurality of digits. 4. The contactless card of claim 1 , wherein the second main side comprises the channel along an outer edge of the second main side. 5. The contactless card of claim 4 , wherein the channel is recessed into the second main side of the metal body. 6. The contactless card of claim 4 , wherein the channel defines the cavity between a surface of the channel and an inner surface of the exterior layer. 7. The contactless card of claim 6 , wherein the cavity is engageable via an instrument or a finger to remove the entire exterior layer from the second main body. 8. The contactless card of claim 1 , comprising a microchip coupled to the first main side of the metal body. 9. The contactless card of claim 1 , wherein the identifying indicia comprises an account number. 10. The contactless card of claim 1 , wherein the second main side comprises a card verification value (CVV). 11. The contactless card of claim 1 , wherein the second main side comprises a signature strip. 12. A transaction card, comprising: a metal body having a first main side and a second main side; and an exterior layer overlaying an entirety of the second main side, the exterior layer including a magnetic stripe, wherein the entire exterior layer is removable from the second main side by using a cavity between the exterior layer and a channel recessed into the second main side. 13. The transaction card of claim 12 , wherein the exterior layer comprises identifying indicia. 14. The transaction card of claim 13 , wherein the identifying indicia comprises a plurality of digits. 15. The transaction card of claim 12 , wherein the second main side comprises the channel along an outer edge. 16. The transaction card of claim 15 , wherein the channel is recessed into the second main side of the metal body. 17. The transaction card of claim 15 , wherein the channel defines the cavity between a surface of the channel and an inner surface of the exterior layer. 18. The transaction card of claim 17 , wherein the cavity is engageable via an instrument or a finger to remove the entire exterior layer from the second main body. 19. The transaction card of claim 12 , comprising a microchip coupled to the first main side of the metal body. 20. The transaction card of claim 12 , wherein the second main side comprises a signature strip.
