Tech News Alert: Security and Convenience in the Payment Industry; CEO's of Dwolla and NXT-ID's (OTCQB: NXTD) Wocket™ Share How They Plan to Revolutionize the Sector

New York, NY - Point Roberts, WA - June 5, 2014 (Investorideas.com Newswire) Investorideas.com, a global news source covering leading sectors including mobile payments and payment technologies, issues a report on emerging payment technology companies Dwolla and NXT-ID, Inc. Recently, InvestorIdeas attended both the Cartes Conference held in Las Vegas and the NXT-ID, Inc.( OTCQB: NXTD ) Wocket™ smart wallet press conference held at the Plaza Hotel in New York, gaining insight on how the CEO’s of the two companies are taking a very different approach towards solving the same problem; security in the payment industry.

The ongoing breaches that consumers and businesses are faced with daily, such as those that affected Target and eBay, have incited the birth of new technologies including mobile apps, internet and cloud solutions and new digital wallets.They are all looking to protect our identity and make our financial transactions secure .
CEO and Founder Ben Milne of Dwolla said at Cartes, “We set money free.”
The Company website says “We're not like those other big payment companies that rely on plastic cards and charge hefty fees. Instead, we’ve built our own network that securely connects to your bank account and allows you to move money for just $0.25 per transaction, or free for transactions $10 or less.”
At the Cartes conference he told a captive audience, “We literally took everything the card does and built it into a protocol and just replaced the card and with it a whole lot of problems go out the door. This is not a philosophical idea, this has actually been built and being distributed. We are currently integrated with governments, businesses and even banks. Some regulated entities and publicly traded companies utilize our network on a daily basis and it’s all without a card !”
So Dwolla aims to eliminate our plastic cards - while newcomer NXT-ID, Inc. wants to replace all the cards in your wallet (up to 10,000 if you have them) with one biometrically secure card and a Wocket™ smart wallet.
Mr. Gino Pereira, Chief Executive Officer of NXT-ID started his presentation at the Plaza by stating "Meet Wocket, the smartest wallet you will ever own."
“In the last 18 months there have been a billion breaches of private information. One in ten of us have had our identity stolen. What can we actually do about this? It turns out that 44% of identity fraud can be traced to a stolen wallet or purse. If we can do something about protecting the information in our wallets, then we can cut down tremendously on the incidents of identity fraud. That’s why you need a Wocket.”
He went on to explain, “You can store 10,000 pieces of information on here in your own personal vault, It can only be accessed by you, by your voice biometrically or with a PIN, or by drawing a shape on a screen. You can store all your loyalty cards, gift cards, credit cards, on a slim, easy to use device. We think this is the evolution of smart . You started with smart phones, you then had smart watches; this is a smart wallet.”
“When you select a card that you want to use on your Wocket touchscreen, it gets programmed on the Wocket card and you hand the Wocket card to your server or attendant and they will check you out just like with any other credit card. Bu it’s on one single card! For security, the information that is transferred onto the card is erased or zeroized a very short time after it is charged.”
He closed with “This is the Wocket™, it retails for $149.99 and it’s available at www.wocketwallet.com” , followed by a public demonstration of the first financial transaction with a Wocket™.
According to a recent report from Business Intelligence, “The credit card companies themselves aren’t going anywhere for now. Visa and MasterCard in particular will remain an indispensable part of the chain because they don’t actually process payments. They simply provide the rails that the credit card system runs on. Credit card processors like First Data that actually do the work of processing merchants’ credit card transactions on the back-end are also in a strong position.”
So what is the future of payments; one card, no card? “One thing we know is the way we do it today is not ideal”, said Ben Milne of Dwolla.
Mr. Gino Pereira, Chief Executive Officer of NXT-ID quoted well-known scientist Alan Kay during his presentation reminding us, “The best way to predict the future is to invent it.”

The Wocket retail price is $149.99.

Wocket™ is a smart wallet in the same vein as the smart phone and smart watch. NXT-ID is introducing its innovative, patent-pending Wocket™ as the next natural step in the evolution of smart devices. Wocket™ is a next generation smart wallet designed to protect your identity and replace all the cards in your wallet, with no smart phone required.

Gino Pereira, CEO of NXT-ID, Inc. said, "Today is a milestone for both NXT-ID and consumers that are concerned about the security of their wallet.

We believe Wocket is the solution that addresses security issues that consumers care about but still is convenient and easy to use."
The full Wocket product FAQ is available to consumers and media at http://nxt-id.com/wocket-faq/
FAQ Highlights:
"What is Wocket™?
Wocket™ is a smart wallet. Like the smart phone and smart watch, NXT-ID is introducing its innovative, patent-pending Wocket™ as the next natural step in the evolution of smart devices.
"What does Wocket™ do?
Wocket™ locks all of your private information in an electronic "vault", where only an authenticated owner can authorize access to the data. Thus, you can "lock it with Wocket™ in your pocket", protecting your private information from unauthorized access.
"What makes Wocket™ smart?
Wocket™ smart wallet protects all of your private information inside an electronic vault while reducing the number of cards in your wallet. Dynamic pairing for authentication and encrypted data transfer with other secondary devices along with a plethora of new, innovative features makes Wocket™ the smartest wallet ever devised.
"How is Wocket™ different from other smart card solutions?
Wocket™ is not a smart card - it is a smart wallet. Thus, it can communicate with smart cards, but is not limited in the number, type, or method of communication of private information that typically restricts the use of a smart card. Furthermore, Wocket™ is not dependent on proximity or any other external factors to secure and choose soft-cards containing private information.
"How is Wocket™ different from other digital wallet solutions?
Rather than replace a wallet as many "digital wallet" technologies attempt to do, we chose to improve the wallet. Unlike other digital wallet solutions that depend on connectivity to choose a payment account, Wocket™ does not depend upon the cloud to select or make a payment.
"Does Wocket™ require another device, such as a cell phone?
No. Although Wocket™ does not require any other peripheral for security or "proximity sensing", Wocket™ can authenticate with secondary devices prior to transaction as an additional step in security as well as utilize a Wocket™ app on other devices to select or manage a soft-card, all without revealing private information.
"How do I access my private information?
A combination of biometrics, personal PIN or pattern provides multi-factor security for your Wocket™. Once Wocket™ verifies your identity, you can simply select whatever soft-card or information you want from the touch screen display, or in some configurations, your voice command.
"How many cards can be securely stored on a Wocket™?
Up to 10,000 cards, records, coupons, etc. and up to 100 voice commands can also be stored on Wocket™. More can be supported with optional additional memory.

NXT-ID's (OTCQB: NXTD) News: Wocket™ Smart Wallet to be Demonstrated at Event May 28th at Plaza in New York City

SHELTON, Conn. - May 21, 2014 (Investorideas.com Newswire) NXT-ID, Inc. (OTCQB: NXTD) a biometric authentication company focused on the growing m-commerce market announces Gino Pereira, CEO of NXT-ID, Inc., will demonstrate the functionality of its next generation smart wallet, Wocket™, designed to replace all the cards in your wallet, at the May 28th launch event at the Plaza in New York City.

The company also releases new product images and videos for the Wocket™ and the Wocket™ card at www.wocketwallet.com
Gino Pereira, CEO of NXT-ID, Inc. said, "Wocket™, is a device that contains a single card that is used to make financial transactions and to process information. A user scans their cards directly into wocket with a scanner that we provide. When processing a transaction, the user accesses the touch screen on wocket after first identifying himself or herself through voice authentication or using a PIN. After that it's as simple as pressing the desired button on the touch screen to use the wocketcard, which now has the information from your card of choice. We take a big bulky wallet and turn it into a sleek, secure and simple solution."
"Wocket is very unique in the payment space, different from a mobile wallet, mobile payment app or other multi card consolidators. Wocket is separate from your phone, so you never have to worry about having all that information in the wrong hands, or running out of battery life. We don't just replace your credit cards; we can store up to 10,000 cards – your loyalty cards, coupons, identity cards, basically any card in your wallet. They key is that wocket also stores your cash so it is a complete replacement for your wallet. "
He went on to state, "We are extremely excited to introduce Wocket to the multitude of consumers that are concerned about the safety of their identity and payment. Wocket is a convenient and safer alternative to a traditional wallet."
Media and shareholders wishing to attend the May 28th event can email info@nxt-id.comor call 800 -665-0411 (Limited attendance so registration is required in advance)
Wocket™ Consumer FAQ Hi- lights:
"What is Wocket ™?
Wocket™ is a smart wallet. Like the smart phone and smart watch, NXT-ID is introducing its innovative, patent-pending Wocket™ as the next natural step in the evolution of smart devices.
"What does Wocket™ do?
Wocket™ locks all of your private information in an electronic "vault", where only an authenticated owner can authorize access to the data. Thus, you can "lock it with Wocket™ in your pocket", protecting your private information from unauthorized access.
"What makes Wocket™ smart?
Wocket™ smart wallet protects all of your private information inside an electronic vault while reducing the number of cards in your wallet. Dynamic pairing for authentication and encrypted data transfer with other secondary devices along with a plethora of new, innovative features makes Wocket™ the smartest wallet ever devised.
"How is Wocket™ different from other smart card solutions?
Wocket™ is not a smart card - it is a smart wallet. Thus, it can communicate with smart cards, but is not limited in the number, type, or method of communication of private information that typically restricts the use of a smart card. Furthermore, Wocket™ is not dependent on proximity or any other external factors to secure and choose soft-cards containing private information.
"How is Wocket™ different from other digital wallet solutions?
Rather than replace a wallet as many "digital wallet" technologies attempt to do, we chose to improve the wallet. Unlike other digital wallet solutions that depend on connectivity to choose a payment account, Wocket™ does not depend upon the cloud to select or make a payment.
"Does Wocket™ require another device, such as a cell phone?
No. Although Wocket™ does not require any other peripheral for security or "proximity sensing", Wocket™ can authenticate with secondary devices prior to transaction as an additional step in security as well as utilize a Wocket™ app on other devices to select or manage a soft-card, all without revealing private information.
"How do I access my private information?
A combination of biometrics, personal PIN or pattern provides multi-factor security for your Wocket™. Once Wocket™ verifies your identity, you can simply select whatever soft-card or information you want from the touch screen display, or in some configurations, your voice command.
"How many cards can be securely stored on a Wocket™?
Up to 10,000 cards, records, coupons, etc. and up to 100 voice commands can also be stored on Wocket™. More can be supported with optional additional memory.
