Keri Systems developed the MS format as their native credential structure for legacy and modern Keri controllers, including:
The MS format uses its own encoding structure, facility code ranges, and decoding rules. This means that credentials must be specifically programmed to the Keri MS format—standard 26-bit cards won’t work unless the controller has been expressly configured for multiple formats.
Keri MS cards are the most frequently used option in the MS ecosystem. They offer:
AuthorizID provides MS-compatible printable cards, making it easy for organizations to customize badges while maintaining full decoder compatibility.
For facilities where employees prefer something more convenient than a full-size badge, Keri MS key fobs are an ideal alternative. Their benefits include:
Many property management groups and HOAs prefer key fobs because they’re harder to lose and easier to assign.
Adhesive tags allow you to convert nearly any existing card—such as an employee ID card or student badge—into a Keri MS-compatible credential without replacing your entire badge program.
Key advantages include:
This option is extremely helpful for businesses migrating from other card formats but not ready to reprint new badges.
If your business needs credentials that can be worn hands-free, Keri MS wristbands offer durability and convenience.
