A transaction card (20) includes at least two read only magnetic stripes (24 and 26) encoded in accordance with standard encoding protocols. The stripes are associated with areas (21 and 22) of the card which may have different indicia, such as, for example, different textures or colors. In accordance with one embodiment, superimposed upon the card may be two sets of printed indicia including for example, the transaction card number, expiration date, and card user's name. One set of printed indicia is inverted with respect to the second set of printed indicia. The card is of standard size and readable in standard readers as known in the art.
