## FAQ
- Q: Will Proud Tek cards void my Assa Abloy lock warranty?
  A: No. Assa Abloy Hospitality lock warranties cover the lock mechanism and electronics, not the consumable credential. The card is an ISO/IEC 14443-A open-standard article, and Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act §2302(c) explicitly blocks tying a consumer warranty to the use of a named-brand consumable absent an FTC waiver — the same principle behind third-party printer cartridges. Thousands of properties run factory-direct MIFARE cards on VingCard and Vostio installations without warranty impact.
- Q: How do I know which MIFARE chip my Assa Abloy locks require?
  A: Check the Assa Abloy front-desk encoding software — it shows whether the site is keyed for MIFARE Classic 1K/4K or DESFire EV2/EV3. Share your lock model (VingCard Classic / Essence / Allure / Signature RFID / Vostio) plus the software version with us and we will confirm the correct silicon and ship sample stock for validation against your encoder before bulk production.
- Q: Can you match our current hotel key card design exactly?
  A: Yes. Send existing card artwork or a high-resolution scan and our pre-press team reproduces the layout in production-ready files at no charge — Pantone match, card thickness, finish stack (spot UV / hot foil / emboss) all replicated so the transition is invisible to guests and front-desk staff. We also support variable-data personalisation (room number, guest name, Wi-Fi credential) printed at the front desk via dye-sublimation retransfer, not at the factory.
- Q: Does third-party card sourcing work with Opera PMS, Mews, Cloudbeds, or HotSOS?
  A: Yes. The PMS integrates with Vostio or the VingCard software, not with the card silicon. Switching card supplier is invisible to the PMS layer — no re-certification, no integration work. The same principle applies across Salto KS, dormakaba Ambiance, and Onity HT / Advance ecosystems on multi-brand portfolios.
- Q: Should we move from MIFARE Classic to DESFire across our portfolio?
  A: The Crypto-1 cipher in MIFARE Classic has known academic attacks (Nohl/Plötz 2008 et seq.); in hospitality the residual risk is mitigated by site-local sector keys, short key validity tied to check-out, and lock-side audit. For luxury / resort / casino / regulated-gaming properties where that residual risk is not acceptable, DESFire EV3 with per-card key diversification per NXP AN10922 is the standard recommendation. Mid-scale properties typically stay on Classic and run DESFire only on back-of-house and executive floors.
