How to get card.io to scan expiration dates? (iOS 6)

Question

I've been told by others that the card.io SDK can scan expiration dates in addition to card numbers. Yet when I integrate it into my iOS 6 iPad project, I'm only able to scan the card number. Has anyone had success in other implementations? (i.e. iOS 5, iPhone, etc.)

Thanks in advance.

I work at card.io. Newer versions of the card.io SDK (3.x and above) do all the card scanning locally on the client - older versions sent images to our server for scanning. We haven't added expiry scanning to this new version yet, but it's still a better customer experience as it's faster (no waiting for network latency) and more accurate (no more failed reads).
