      What are you curious about specifically? The type of glue they used? If transplanting the strip will make it unswipeable?

          Of course you can, you’re only striping one at a time. You could put as many as the physical card can hold.

          Best way is to apply glue the back using a regular glue stick. Put it in a book for a day till it dries. Then you’ll need to laminate the card with a non glossy coating to protect it.

            I think the practical limit would be 4, for each of the orientations the card can go into the reader.

                Possible, but we’d have to see the reader. The ones I know for transport systems are not the swipe type, but the put card in a slot type, so it needs to stay the same size or get lost in the innards of the machine (don’t ask me how I know… I was young).
