I currently use an app called "Key Ring" which allows me to enter in
all my membership cards on my smartphone. I can either scan in the
card using a barcode scanner or type in the numbers by hand. It saves
them all in the app with the number and a barcode. Some stores can
read the barcode but most just ask for my phone number or will input
the number by hand. One hotel chain didn't even give me a physical
card, just the numbers because they've gone all digital. I could print
out a paper copy if I wanted to.
Any smartphone will be able to display a .jpg or other picture of a
card so it shouldn't be that hard to do your cards that way. People
could e-mail the card around and get in for free but if you check
people in via computer then you can track how many times people are
using the card and possibly catch abuses.
