The world is full of wearable technologies – for fitness, health, cardio tracking and even action photography – but here is something new that is truly useful, introducing the DC TAG by DC Payments.
DC Payments has recognised the Australian market is ready for real freedom by launching a payment wristband – a super simple but high tech wristband that makes paying easier, safer and way more fun.
The DC TAG is incredibly handy. I can now walk my dog every morning knowing I can get a coffee and croissant without the hassle of taking money with me. My walks are so much more convenient with one less thing to worry about when I’m running out the door with a great dane at my heels.
The DC TAG has the functionality of a prepaid card, all in a waterproof, durable band that you wear on your wrist – no matter what you are doing: running, riding, swimming, hiking, or jumping about at a festival! It works at any sales terminal that accepts Visa payWave and is one of the first of its kind in Australia.
Wearable technology is where we are heading in payments and Australians are already huge adoptors of contactless wearable tech.
Once purchased, customers can load funds directly onto their DC TAG online from their personal bank account. DC TAG payments have the same multiple layers of security as card-based contactless transactions.
A DC TAG will make a great last minute present for someone, and is the perfect solution for the person who always seems to have “left my wallet at home”.
Selling this with gift cards out of a convenience store or petrol station will be way too easy, so let me tell you – just do it, people!
The DC TAG is currently available online at www.dctag.com.au. The DC TAG is a product of DC Payments and issued by Indue – an innovative payment solutions company. To sell in your store call 1800 301 100.
