A hand-held device for cleaning data-bearing cards includes a housing, a fluid applicator pad, a scrubber pad, a drying pad, and a removable panel. The housing includes a first surface to oppose the portion of the card to be cleaned. A first recess is disposed within the first surface. The first recess has an aperture extending through the housing. A second recess is also disposed adjacent the first recess within the first surface. A third recess is disposed adjacent the second recess within the first surface of the housing. The first, second, and third recesses are generally linearly aligned. The fluid applicator pad is disposed within the first recess. The scrubber pad is disposed within the second recess. The drying pad is disposed within the third recess. Each of the pads is thicker than the depth of its corresponding recess such that the pads project partially above the first surface of the housing. The panel is removably coupled to the housing. The panel includes a head portion having a second surface oriented generally parallel to the first surface of the housing. The second surface is directly opposed to the first surface for movement of the card therebetween for cleaning.
