Sounds like a more flexible plastic is needed but that clearly impacts the manufacturing processes available and thus the cost.
the existing plastic comes as-is. making *any* changes would require a minimum of around USD $20k in design and injection-molding costs.
as a result we considered very thin metal sheet (thick foil in effect) that could be stamped (or laser cut) and was effectively a "metal sticker" that could go over the end and be bent round. probably even by hand.
Did you try the foil? How well did it work?
no - just a design idea. shelved for the first Cards as there's insufficient funds. can always send them out later.
