A combined gift card holder and bottle carrier topper includes a main panel having two oblong elements separated by an elongate channel and a gift card sleeve attached to the main panel. The main panel is inserted onto a bottle carrier by placing a portion of the bottle carrier into the channel. The gift card sleeve is then located outside the bottle carrier and a portion of the bottle carrier topper is located inside the bottle carrier.

Disclosed are computer-implemented methods, non-transitory computer-readable media, and systems for authentication. One computer-implemented method includes obtaining a first image, where the first image is an image of an identification (ID) document captured when the ID document is tilted at a first angle relative to a projected light source. A second image is obtained, where the second image is an image of the ID document captured when the ID document is tilted at a second angle relative to the projected light source. The ID document is authenticated based on identification of a first illuminated region and a second illuminated region, where the first illuminated region is associated with the first image and the second illuminated region is associated with the second image, and a comparison between a first position of the first illuminated region and a second position of the second illuminated region.

A device including a compartment section, wherein the compartment section is configured to host ID or cards; a bottom wall disposed on a proximate bottom portion of the compartment section; at least three or more closed sidewalls and an open sidewall generally surrounds the compartment section, wherein the open sidewall is configured to be operable for accepting a magnifying lens; a magnifying lens, the magnifying lens is configured to magnify the ID or card for viewing; an open area disposed on a proximate top portion of the compartment section, wherein the open area is configured as an entry point of the ID or card; a base section that is configured to support the device against a surface area; and a U-shaped bracket implement that is configured to be operable for engaging the compartment section to the base section.

There is provided an information page of a security document in which no non-uniform external force acts on an IC module. The information page of a security document includes a core layer, an IC module holding layer provided on one surface of the core layer via an intermediate layer, an IC module held in the IC module holding layer, and a laser printing layer provided on the other surface of the core layer. The intermediate layer and the IC module holding layer are both made of polycarbonate.

This present patent application discloses a card cover. The card cover comprises of a front and a back panel including various gray-out and transparent portions. The card cover provides users with a privacy cover for identification cards, debit and credit cards, and more, and maintains privacy for the user, preventing personal information from being revealed to unauthorized individuals when using the card. The device features several ‘gray-out’ portions on the cover to protect information on the card and ensures bystanders, retail employees, and the like are unable to view specific information, preventing identity theft and other dangers involving personal information. The transparent portion shows the non-confidential information present on the card for easy access of the card.

Embodiments of a wallet card retrieval device (tab) for retrieval of a wallet card from a wallet slot is disclosed. According to one embodiment, a retrieval device includes a bendable membrane having a first and a second end, a first area of non-permanent adhesive on the first end of the membrane, and a second area of non-permanent adhesive on the second end of the membrane, where the membrane wraps around a wallet card for the first area to adhere to a first side of the wallet card and the second area to adhere to a second side opposite to the first side of the wallet card.
