Visa rolls out payWave-enabled Micro Tag key fobs
Filed under: Misc. Gadgets, Wireless
In the latest scheme to make it just a little easier for you to part with your money, Visa has begun rolling out its Micro Tag key fobs for contactless (and if under $25, signature-less) payments. The issuer-customizable Tags are based on Visa’s payWave technology — an RFID system similar to MasterCard’s PayPass — and are meant to act as companions to existing credit and debit cards. To commemorate the launch, Visa passed out 1,000 Tags pre-loaded with $15 at yesterday’s San Francisco Giants game at AT&T Park, encouraging fans to purchase the fatty stadium concessions that could perhaps lull them into the false notion that this a completely secure payment method.
