Abstract: The inventory of expiration date sensitive cards is tracked such that re-ordering can be automatically initiated. A first value is generated based on how many cards are in stock at a particular site. The site may be a card issuer site, although the site may also be a vendor site or other site. An expiration date is determined for each of the cards in stock at the particular site. Based on the current date and the expiration dates associated with the cards, a number of expired cards in the stock at the particular site is determined. An inventory total is generated based, at least in part, on the first value and the number of expired cards. The inventory total is compared with a threshold value to determine whether a re-order criterion for cards at the particular site has been satisfied.
