Question 1: Do you require lamination as well to the printer, and if so. We can offer the holographic image lamination – And would you want to have your own custom hologram or will you  be happy to use a standard generic hologram ? There will be a cost implication depending on which one want.

Answer: It would be ideal to have a custom hologram that embraces the Gambling Authority logo however kindly quote for both custom and standard generic holograms.
