Wearable payment refers to payments done with wearable devices equipped with wireless technologies such as NFC and RFID. Wearable payment devices not only provide clients with a quick and contactless payment alternative but also maintain customer safety and hygiene, especially in the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic.
