alistamiento de tarjetas

English translation: certification/registration of cards

Bus/Financial - Manufacturing / credit card manufacturing
Spanish term or phrase: alistamiento de tarjetas
Term appears in a Colombian Spanish document about a credit card manufacturing company. It appears in sentences describing the card making process, which includes preparation, delivery, etc., but there's no mention anywhere I can see on the net of what "alistamiento" of a card might consist of.

Any help much appreciated.

packing and preparation for shipping


Explanation:
From a website that explains how credit cards are made:

The finished cards are then prepared for shipping, usually by attaching the card to a paper letter with adhesive.

This last step could be what is referred to as "alistamiento." Therefore, I tend to think that in this case "alistar" means "to get them ready for shipping" (for example, by putting them in a envelope.)



Example sentence(s):
  • Se requiere personal para alistar, embolsar, plegar, ensobrar, sellar sobres, entre otras actividades manuales.
