Introduction
Our bank cards are one of our most important touch point products
that we offer to our customers. In order to fulfill our customers’
different needs we offer a variety of different cards. Bank cards
get exposed to many people on a daily basis, and it is therefore
important that the user feels proud of the card and the design.
Swedbank – Bank cards 3
Card design strategy
The design strategy for our bank cards is based
on design elements from our visual identity.
The design dramatises our brand platform and
manifests our vision.
By adding modern effects we push the brand
forward which results in a card portfolio that
differentiates us from our competitors.
Our card design strategy is based on three main design elements:
Colour
Pattern
Logotype

Card design strategy – Groups
We cluster our cards into 4 hierarchical groups, from Basic to Premium Plus:
Basic
Standard
Premium
Premium Plus
Swedbank – Bank cards 5
Card design strategy – Colour
The colours of our bank cards comes from
the colours in our visual identity. In order to
communicate our whole hierarchy – from Basic
to Premium Plus and to be able to easily create
and add new products, the colours used in
the bank cards are closely connected to the
group they represent.
As our large volumes are in the Basic and
Standard group, these cards communicate
our brands’ core colour; orange. As we
move higher up in the card hierarchy, gold
and platinum are added as functional colours.

Card design strategy – Pattern
The pattern used on our cards is based on the
pattern in our visual identity. The pattern on
our Basic and Standard cards reflect a generous
foliage and becomes more subtle and refined
as we move up the scale towards Premium Plus.

Card design strategy – Logotype
Our logotype is always present on the front
of the card and we use the full colour logotype
in Basic and Standard cards.
Basic
Standard
In Premium and Premium Plus cards we use
a one colour version of the logotype that
harmonises with the background colour of
the card for a more subtile impression.

Environmental aspects
Taking responsibility is a big part of our everyday
business. We are strongly committed to society
and to sustainability in the environment in which
we all work and live. Our Swedish operations
holds an ISO 14001 environmental certification
and environmental work is an integral part of
all our business activities. For this reason a vast
majority of our cards are produced using PVC
plastic that can ensure high quality and long life
span of the cards.

Third party brands
We work with other brands, such as MasterCard,
Visa, AMEX, etc., to provide the bank card service.
We must therefore also consider and adhere to
their guidelines when designing the cards.

Our card portfolio
Our card portfolio
All our card designs represent a specific function. It is important
to keep our card designs as consistent as possible in order to maintain
control over our product offers. We should not develop separate
designs for different third party brands. Instead, when developing
a new product you should first review the existing cards to see if
the function of your product is similar to one of the existing cards.
If necessary to develop a new card design, you need to get approval
from the Design and Brand Manager.
