Curl Brings NFC to Existing Devices

Curl Brings NFC to Existing Devices
Dec-08-16
The Curl device from Inamo adds tap-and-go payment capabilities to standard watches or fitness bands.

Currently only available in Australia, the sturdy, waterproof Curl fits onto an existing device, such as a watch or even keyring, and can be preloaded with funds in an online account. Payments can be made simply by bringing the Curl near any machine that accepts VISA Paywave, and the user can also choose to require a PIN for high-dollar purchases.

According to Peter Colbert, CEO and founder of Inamo, "Currently consumers are shackled to their phones, wallets or payment cards, and that doesn't suit people who want to do activities such as run, swim, or cycle."
