Contactless payment for bikers and nudists

Post by Monty »

Perfect for me as I hate having to take my rucksack off every time I fill up.

I use the bpay sticker on the back of my phone, they do a wristband and keyfob. Dead handy for when I'm using the tube etc.

That is seriously cool. Finally a bit of tech that makes it easier for the end user, not harder. Doesn't need upgrading and it's usable across a wide range of platforms.

There is one problem I foresee.. I used to work with a bloke that was a swinger, or in the "Lifestyle" (LS) as he called it. He was very open about it. The LS crowd apparently have a way of identifying themselves to each other covertly. They wear a black ring on the right hand (I think) on any finger other than the middle finger (that meant something else but can't remember what).

I wonder how many KERV users with the black ring are going to get hit on by horny swinger couples (lol)

Looks almost identical to the Kerv ring, same shape.

Think I'll go for the Kerv one though, so I can use it for contactless payments as well.

Yeah the old work mate had one and as soon as I saw the Kerv I remembered about the story behind his.

So I guess it's perfect for the biker swinger nudist! (lol)

So it must have a chip in it. Seems a good idea for a fair few people but I hate rings so I won't be getting one!
