Home the disadvantage of plastic cards and chips is their physical design. If an employee loses a card, a new one must be issued. Modern access control systems are replacing outdated RFID card technology with smart phones that can store a virtual access card.
The card in your mobile is safer
I'm sure you know the situation. You're getting ready for work in the morning and you instinctively reach out for an access card, but what's that?
Your card is not in your pocket. It's not even around your neck.
Maybe you left it in the car or in the office. Can't she be home? Or did you lose it? 🤔
You'll have to request a new one. Oh, yeah!
Now imagine that many lost cards and chips will never be deactivated because people don't report the loss or the administrator forgets to deactivate the card.
This represents significant security risk for building owners, because it gives unauthorized persons access to the entire area from the front door to the server room.
Are you sure your plastic cards have not fallen into unauthorised hands? You can afford such a security risk?

What do industry professionals have to say?
May I quote Mr. Jaroslav Barton from HID Global, who serves as Director Product Marketing, Physical Access Control:
"Many new devices are now starting with mobile access. The frequent discussion about lost access cards has contributed to this. People still have smartphones close by and don't share them, so one of the age-old problems with access cards is instantly solved. In addition, most people protect their phones with passwords, PINs or biometrics that can protect the credentials on the phone from misuse. Access can be centrally managed, making it easy to add, remove, and change access rights or issue credentials to visitors and vendors. They choose mobile access because it is convenient, simple, secure and often more cost-effective."
