NXT-ID (Nasdaq:NXTD; NXTDW) Patents Miniature, Low Power Wireless Magnetic Stripe

Breaking Tech News: NXT-ID (Nasdaq:NXTD; NXTDW) Patents Miniature, Low Power Wireless Magnetic Stripe

OXFORD, CT - April 6, 2015 (Investorideas.com Newswire) NXT-ID, Inc. (NASDAQ: NXTD; NXTDW), a biometric authentication company focused on the growing mobile commerce market, announced today that it has filed provisional patent 62/143028 for MINIATURE, MULTI-PURPOSE ANTENNA METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR LOW-POWER CLOSE-PROXIMITY COMMUNICATIONS AND ENERGY TRANSFER

NXT-ID introduces a new revolutionary method and system to perform wireless payments. This patent surrounds the use of miniature antenna modules for multiple purposes including RF and magnetic stripe communications, energy transfer and charging, and wireless magnetic payments, to name a few.

"What's really exciting about this technology is that these miniature antenna modules are small and efficient enough to fit within a wide variety of mobile and wearable applications, but powerful enough to transmit wirelessly to the most prevalent point of sale system still in use today - magnetic stripe readers," says David Tunnell, Chief Technology Officer of NXT-ID, Inc. "We were pleasantly surprised to discover that our existing antenna designs for our Wocket® Card are not only small enough to fit into ultra-thin powered devices, but can also be optimized to transmit wirelessly. Ultimately, this not only enables wireless payments for mobile applications such as smart phones, but also wearable applications where ultra low power and tiny size are critical, such as smart watches and smart wallets."

This technology is positioned to become a major enabler in wireless payments at NFC terminals as well as common magnetic stripe readers. NXT-ID states one can simply point the device containing the antenna within a few inches of most magnetic strip readers to successfully transmit magnetic stripe data wirelessly, but at a fraction of the power consumption of other approaches.

"We recently announced feedback from early Wocket users, with great results coming back from use at multiple retailers. A key challenge with dynamic magnetic stripe technology has been to achieve a solution that works across all magnetic stripe readers, not just some. With this multi-purpose antenna technology, we have patented the key technology that has yielded our success across so many Point-of-Sale systems, including our ability to detect a reader, calculate swipe speed, and vary transmission parameters to transmit data from a miniature antenna with extremely low power consumption," David Tunnell explained.

"This is a potential game changer to the mobile payments industry," says Gino Pereira, CEO of NXT-ID. "We are extremely excited to introduce this potentially disruptive technology as the next step in our evolution, after we complete our Wocket Smart Wallet delivery program this spring. This new method of wireless payment technology has a power consumption so low it brings wireless payments to virtually any mobile or wearable application. We plan to offer this technology to enable wireless magnetic stripe and other wireless features to watches and phones, as well as our Wocket Smart Wallet in the near future."

NXT-ID (Nasdaq:NXTD; NXTDW) Reports Second Shipment of Wocket Smart Wallets Underway to Early Access Pre-order Customers and Provides User Feedback

Breaking Tech News: NXT-ID (Nasdaq:NXTD; NXTDW) Reports Second Shipment of Wocket Smart Wallets Underway to Early Access Pre-order Customers and Provides User Feedback

Company to Increase Awareness Campaign and Build on Growing Consumer Interest

OXFORD, CT - April 1, 2015 (Investorideas.com Newswire) NXT-ID, Inc. (NASDAQ: NXTD;NXTDW), a biometric authentication company focused on the growing mobile commerce market, announces the second shipment of a limited number of Wocket smart wallets is underway to early access pre-order customers.

Feedback from the early access group includes usage at retail outlets including Walmart, Target, AT&T, Dunkin' Donuts, Stop & Shop and CVS Pharmacy. Users report Wocket was accepted at all outlets and very easy to use. Several users reported that they were entirely comfortable leaving all their cards at home and having just a Wocket in their pocket!

One of the users reported, "I bought two smartphones at an AT&T store and the customer service rep instantly wanted to know more about Wocket and went online to check it out. They asked when and how they could purchase one. "

According to SoundView Technology Group, who used their Wocket at outlets including Whole Foods and CVS, "The most interesting real-world interaction occurred in a CVS where the "hand card to cashier" message popped up. I had prefaced my swipe with the comment that I was using "a new ultra secure credit card" and when I handed over she responded "oh is this one of those cards where you can store all your cards on?" To which I replied yes indeed and she simply said "cool" and handed it back."

Users also said there were no concerns from cashiers or sales staff at any outlets when they were handed the new Wocket card. The only question asked was," Is this debit or credit?"
Gino Pereira, Chief Executive Officer, said, "At CES in January the consumer interest and media response was even better than we expected. It is gratifying to hear from our select group that the user experience is matching expectations. We believe the roll- out of our pre-orders this spring will result in similar feedback."

He added, "As part of building consumer awareness, we will continue to work with, and feature, celebrities from different walks of life. Celebrities that we have worked with include former 'N Sync star Joey Fatone, former Miss Universe, Olivia Culpo, and five time world champion boxer Vinny Paz, whose true life story is the subject of the soon to be released movie 'Bleed for This', with up and coming star Miles Teller playing the role of Vinny. We will also be featuring new celebrities over the coming months."

NXT-ID (NXTD) Media Alert: Maxim and ComputerWorld Magazines Hi-lite Wocket Smart Wallet Following First Shipment to Consumers

NXT-ID (NXTD) Media Alert: Maxim and ComputerWorld Magazines Hi-lite Wocket Smart Wallet Following First Shipment to Consumers

OXFORD, CT – March 30, 2015 (Investorideas.com Newswire) NXT-ID, Inc. (NASDAQ: NXTD; NXTDW), a biometric authentication company focused on the growing mobile commerce market, reports on recent media coverage for the Company’s biometric smart wallet, the Wocket™, following its first shipment to early access, pre-order customers.

The Company is also happy to report that it will be in the April 2015 issue of Maxim Magazine (http://www.maxim.com/) in a feature titled “Tool Time. The key to life is simple: work faster, play more. Any gadget that doesn't advance this noble quest has no business in your briefcase. Here, a few that do.”

9 Security Gadgets for Mobile Devices

If you use your smartphone or tablet for work, you need to keep your data secure when you’re on the go. We look at nine gadgets that try to keep your important data out of the hands of others.


Careful online shoppers often use temporary, disposable credit-card numbers to protect themselves from identity theft and other dangers. The Wocket brings a similar concept to your pocket, replacing all your existing credit cards with a single card (called the WocketCard) that resets every time you use it. The idea: To provide the most secure wallet you can carry. The Wocket is a pocket-size (3.5 x 2.75 x 0.4 in.) electronic vault that stores all the numbers and other info from your bankcards, as well as from loyalty and membership cards. Whenever you need to actually hand a physical card to, say, a clerk or waiter, you just slip the WocketCard into the Wocket. It only takes a few taps for you to code the card to whatever (Amex, Costco, etc.) you need it to be. And the Wocket wallet itself is biometrically coded to your voice, so there's no risk of compromise if it gets lost or stolen.

Mobile Commerce News
Smart Wallets Puts a Spin on Mobile Payments

Smart wallets begin gaining momentum among mobile consumers
With mobile payments becoming more popular, the need for smart wallets is increasing. These mobile applications are designed to function as digital counterparts to physical wallets or pocketbooks.  They store personal information, such as the data associated with a debit or credit card. They can also store information provided by retailers, like loyalty cards that offer rewards. Smart wallets are, however, more compact and efficient at keeping track of important information.
NXT-ID, a biometric technology company,has announced the launch of its new smart wallet, called Wocket. The wallet is somewhat different than conventional mobile wallets in that it is actually a physical product and not an application. Wocket is designed with security in mind, as well, featuring the ability to protect a users identity and replace all payment cards. The wallet will be accepted anywhere that already accepts credit card transactions, making it a potential competitor for other mobile payments platforms.
Wocket is a new take on the mobile wallet, which could be a boon for NXT-ID. There are many mobile wallets that exist in the mobile payments space, but relatively few of these platforms have yet become popular with consumers. Moreover, these platforms require a smartphone to use, whereas Wocket is a standalone product that can be used by anyone.

Welcome to the World of Gadget Commerce

The concept of mobile commerce, or at least mobile payments, has been relatively straightforward, with various twists.  At the core, a person uses their mobile phone to pay for something, like in a store, by tapping their phone to a check-out terminal or flashing a code on the screen. But increasingly, more things are being used to buy things.
There are other devices being introduced for non-phone payments. The Wocket smart wallet, which just started initial shipping, is essentially a case that comes with a card inside. The card looks and acts like a credit card and once the consumer’s identification is verified via biometrics and PIN number, a tap on the screen is used to select which credit card it becomes. After use,
the card is put back into the wallet and becomes neutral again.
