PasswordCard is a credit card-sized card you keep in your wallet, which lets you pick very secure passwords for all your websites, without having to remember them! You just keep them with you, and even if your wallet does get stolen, the thief will still not know your actual passwords.

Its like piece of paper which you need to get it printed and keep it with you. The piece of paper contains unique grid of random letters and digits on it. The rows have different colors, and the columns different symbols. All you do is remember a combination of a symbol and a color, and then read the letters and digits from there. It couldn’t be simpler!

Not necessary that you need to remember symbols and colors, you can either remember symbols or color rows, you can read it from left to right or right to left. Just print and laminate the paper password card and keep in your wallet.

While printing, it also generates a random code like (553d061b462d8003) this is the number of your card. Store it somewhere safe! If you want to regenerate a card you lost, type the number on the website and hit enter. You get your card again, so that you can print it and keep it safe.

This is actually quite interesting and can be very useful. I am only skeptical about learning the colors and symbols since I am quite a lazy person ;)

The paper doesn’t show the password exactly .. it shws random letters, symbols and colors. Only your mind can read the exact password
