Abstract
A method and system for reissue processing for card issuance units (CIUs) such as credit cards, smart cards, phone cards and the like. Prior to expiration of the credit card, cardholder accounts in good standing are identified. Thereafter, uncompleted records for the cardholders are provided. The uncompleted record contains minimal account information about the cardholder. Thereafter, the method includes evaluating whether the cardholder accounts are eligible for credit card reissue when the uncompleted records are selected. The cardholder accounts are evaluated by running the records through client defined criteria. After evaluation, if the cardholder accounts are eligible, completed records of cardholders are generated for fulfilling the credit cards.
