The Material Makes the ID

The difference between a fake ID that passes and one that gets confiscated often comes down to one thing: the card material. IDGod (ID God / IDGods) uses polycarbonate exclusively.

PVC: What Budget Sellers Use

PVC is cheap, flexible, and available at any office supply store. PVC IDs feel wrong the moment a bouncer touches them. They bend too easily and lack the rigidity of a real ID.

Polycarbonate: What DMVs Use

Government DMVs use polycarbonate. It has the right weight, rigidity, and sound when dropped on a table. IDGod sources the same polycarbonate as state DMVs.

Why It Matters

A bouncer can tell PVC from polycarbonate in 2 seconds. That first touch determines whether they even bother scanning. IDGod IDs pass the touch test every time.
