The Company became involved with Astar International's 38edge I/C Memory Cards, as a consultant in 1983. A major UK 38edge Card application in Automotive Diagnostic Equipment came to fruition in 1987, resulting in the formation of a dedicated I/C Memory Card Technology Company to manage the project. Involvement in the application of Japanese Jeida Cards in 1990 provided valuable field experience before the introduction of the USA PCMCIA Card Standard in 1991.

The Company operated under different guises until being renamed Card Professionals Limited in 1995. The trading name CardPro^TM International was adopted in 1997 and the product brand name CardPro^TM 2000 was introduced at the commencement of the new millennium. Key staff have remained with the Company throughout and the 100% dedication to I/C Card Technology has been maintained from 1987 to this day.
