As I’m sure you’ve already done, what’s the security like on this thing? The only thing they really mentioned was physical location security.
It’s tied to your phone so I guess if you lose both you’re fucked? Besides the fact you can still cancel the CC via the company.
Holy shit !! It’s like magic how all those cards pop in and out of that COIN thing. I gotta get me one of those!
I’m really interested in that. I wonder how much of a hassle it will be using it though. “Uh, we don’t take what ever the hell that is”.
That was my worry
I’m sure it works great in Austin, Bay area, and everywhere else with tons of tech people.
Guess I will order one and see what happens
interesting, what do you get for referral?
Not my referral link so nothing and there I edited it out.
You should leave it so someone gets something! I am going to buy one to try it out when it arrives sometime next year.
Looks like an interesting gadget.
Until, that $400 oriental massage ends up on your wifes work CC because someone pressed the selector button before swiping.
I’ve got a few more questions after reading the FAQ.
What about signatures?
The battery “should last 2 years”, after which you have to buy a new one @ $100 a pop.
What happens when I wear the magnetic strip out like I have on my primary card a couple of times? This is a big concern since with this I’d be swiping one card for everything.
I’m picturing a lot of hassles from stores around here who would pretty much never see them. Things like “We’re not swiping that, it looks like it’s going to hack us”.
I would love one of these.
My first question (after reading all of your questions) whats to stop some inquisitive waiter/waitress from clicking the “change card” button?
I’d pay $20 for one these, no more.
Move along…
This.
Also say the mag strip reader isn’t working…how does the waitress, cashier, etc punch in the number manually?
A solution to this could be that it locks on the card that has been selected after it leaves your Bluetooth field.

The picture of the card is stored in the app so they could just enter it from there in that rare case.
^Good points.
Looks pretty fuckin sweet. I’ll scoop one to try out.
