Stratos

posted September 11, 2015 #

The Stratos card claims to be a all-in-one card storage device - putting all your swipe-able cards into one. It's Bluetooth connected and you just tap your phone to bring up the interface to choose which card you want to use. The demo video, understandably, looks pretty stellar. I imagine there would be an adjustment period of getting used to the tap motion but having few cards seems nice. It also seems nice that if you lost the card, it could be deactivated and would be pretty much useless to whomever picked it up.

I am curious how this plays with NFC and in card chips. I've had my card number stolen multiple times over the past few months but I'm not sure this would prevent such a thing from happening. Regardless, it's neat tech and worth perusing.
