What are you curious about specifically? The type of glue they used? If transplanting the strip will make it unswipeable?
If I can put 2 stripes on a crad and work
Of course you can, you’re only striping one at a time. You could put as many as the physical card can hold.
Best way is to apply glue the back using a regular glue stick. Put it in a book for a day till it dries. Then you’ll need to laminate the card with a non glossy coating to protect it.
I think the practical limit would be 4, for each of the orientations the card can go into the reader.
Not if you cut the card in half
Possible, but we'd have to see the reader. The ones I know for transport systems are not the swipe type, but the put card in a slot type, so it needs to stay the same size or get lost in the innards of the machine (don't ask me how I know... I was young).
