Is fakeid.co.uk a scam?

No. We have traded as CardFairy since 1996, print in-house on our own equipment, publish our terms and refund policy, and run a monitored support desk. Check the trading history and the fact that the finished card is photographed before you spend anything.

Do the cards actually arrive?

That is what the ratings reflect. Orders are printed and dispatched the next working day. If something goes wrong, the refund and returns policy covers it and the support desk is the route.

Owning a novelty card is legal in the UK. Using one to deceive someone is not. The actual statutes are set out in plain English on our 'is fake ID illegal in the UK' page.

Why should I trust a site that sells novelty ID?

You should not trust any of them on assertion alone. Trust what is checkable: how long the domain has traded, whether they show real photographs of the product, whether there is a published refund policy, and whether a human answers when you write in.

When will real customer reviews appear here?

As soon as they have been collected through the post-purchase flow being built. We would rather this page be short and true than long and invented.

Fake ID UK Reviews — Is fakeid.co.uk Legit?

The short answer

Yes, it's a real business. CardFairy has been printing plastic cards since 1996 — thirty years, from a workshop with a printer in it, not a landing page and a crypto wallet. Across the current range we hold a 4.7 average from 9,485 ratings.

If you got here by searching whether this site is a scam: fair enough. The novelty card trade is full of them, and we've written about that at length because we lose business to them too. So rather than tell you we're great, here's what you can actually check.

What you can verify without taking our word for it

Thirty years of trading. Since 1996. Scam sites do not last three decades; they last three months and reappear under a new domain.
We own the printer. A £25,000+ UV DTF machine built for plastic card work. It is the single largest thing in the building and it is why we can print in-house rather than drop-ship.
You see the card before you pay. Every design is photographed front, back, in hand, in a wallet and under UV. Not renders — the actual printed cards.
There is a real support desk. The contact form goes to a monitored helpdesk with ticket numbers, not an inbox nobody opens.
Published terms and a refund policy. Our terms and refund and returns policy are on the site, in public, before you order.

Why there are no written reviews on this page yet

Because we haven't collected them properly, and we're not going to invent them.

We hold star ratings going back years — that's where the 4.7 comes from — but the written text was never captured in a way we could publish. Rather than pad this page with quotes nobody actually said, we're building a proper post-purchase review flow. Real names, real orders, real words. This page gets updated when they exist.

Made-up testimonials are also now illegal in the UK under the Digital Markets, Competition and Consumers Act 2024, which is a decent second reason. But the first one is the real one: if we'd fake a review, why would you believe anything else here?

Common questions

No. We've traded as CardFairy since 1996, print in-house on our own equipment, publish our terms and refund policy, and run a monitored support desk.

That's what the ratings reflect. Orders are printed and dispatched next day, and every order gets tracking. If something goes wrong, the refund and returns policy covers it and the support desk is the route.

See what you'd actually be buying

The strongest argument we have isn't on this page — it's the photography. Every card in the range is shot from five angles including under UV, so you can judge the print quality before you spend anything.
