Es geht hier um technische Spezifikationen von Gutscheinkarten:
Die Karte im Kreditkartenformat wird auf der Vorderseite des Trägers aufgeklebt (alternativ: Karte in Schlitze auf Träger gesteckt). Dabei ist diese so zu positionieren, dass der Barcode (GS1-128) durch die **Aussparung** komplett zu sehen ist.
Vielleicht hat jemand eine Idee, was hier der geeignete Begriff ist. Vielen Dank im Voraus.

"window" would be sticking your neck out, and "recess" I'd say is plain wrong.

I would be tempted to call this a window, like in the case of envelopes.

"What's In a Gift Card Holder?
•A barcode on the rear of a gift card must be scanned at the point of purchase to add a dollar value. If fugitive glue is being used to adhere the card to the holder, a die-cut window behind the card allows this barcode to be accessed and scanned to apply value without removing it."
