Barclaycard unveils contactless wristband
From Finextra
“Barclaycard is preparing to jump on the wearable tech bandwagon through the launch of a contactless payments wristband.
Barclaycard has been trialing the bpay bands over the last two years at music festivals. After each event, the bands were deactivated but next year will see a full-scale roll out of the technology.
The bands will enable users to make low-value payments through the tap of a wrist at over 300,000 spots in the UK, including in shops, bars and on London's public transport system.”
