COO of NXT-ID (NASDAQ: NXTD) and President of Fit Pay, Inc. Talks About Recent Developments With Payment Platform; Garmin, Chase, Westpac and Cryptocurrency

June 21, 2018/0 Comments/in News /by FitPay

POINT ROBERTS, Washington, June 21, 2018 /PRNewswire/ —

NXT-ID, Inc.’s subsidiary FitPay has had an eventful past few weeks and has more to look forward to in the future as well, according to company COO, and President of Fit Pay, Inc., Michael Orlando.

Orlando talked about the rollout of new products from Garmin Ltd. (NASDAQ: GRMN), including the vivoactive® 3 Music and the fēnix 5® Plus series.

“Garmin has launched two new devices: the vivoactive® 3 Music, which is the next iteration of the first device they launched back in November, the vivoactive® 3, their mainstream smartwatch,” he said. “And then, just this week, they announced the fēnix 5® Plus series, and that is a high-end athletic watch that also includes Garmin Pay™, Garmin’s payment system for their devices.”

Speaking of Garmin’s growing issuer footprint, Orlando expressed the significance of the quality of institutions that are adopting the technology.

“We’re in over 20 countries right now, that includes over 130 banks, and they’re the largest banks in those regions because they’re typically the earliest to adopt and the most innovative banks,” he said.

NXT-ID and Westpac, one of Australia’s major banking institutions, recently announced an agreement to extend contactless payment capabilities to a range of new devices, including the latest smartwatches from Garmin International, Inc. (GRMN). The Agreement enables Westpac customers to make secure contactless payments at NFC-enabled point-of-sale locations directly from Internet of Things (IoT) and wearable devices that are integrated with the FitPay’s™ Trusted Token Manager™.

This follows news that Chase Visa credit and debit cards can be used Garmin Pay™, enabling customers to make contactless payments in stores featuring NFC-enabled terminals. Orlando said this significantly expands the user base of the company’s technology.

“By adding Chase here in the U.S., we’ve added a huge constituency of consumers that now have access to Garmin Pay™ and the FitPay platform,” he said.

Orlando said that the company has a number of announcements to follow in late third quarter and early fourth quarter, including developments on Fit Pay, Inc.’s Flip™, the contactless payment device for cryptocurrency.

“We announced late last year and our wrapping-up the first iteration of development on our Flip™ product,” he said. “That’s a really important development because it helps to prove that currency as a transactional-based currency versus a commodity-based currency. So it’s exciting to get that product to market here really soon.”

Speaking of the crypto space more generally, Orlando said people shouldn’t be surprised by the unpredictability of the market with regulation still finding its footing. He affirmed, however, that crypto will continue to be a significant force in the market and that NXT-ID was eager to play an important part in its growth.

“We should all have expected that it would continue to be volatile, particularly as the regulatory players figure out how they’re going to define and deal with crypto in general,” he said. “For us there is no doubt that cryptocurrencies are here to stay,” he said. “There’s going to be various forms of those and acceptance of those. We feel like we need to be a part of that and ensure that we’re staying in touch and in tune, and looking for ways to innovate around those different currencies and blockchain in general.”

NXT-ID Subsidiary Fit Pay to Co-sponsor Jack Daniel’s® All-Star Weekend Event Hosted by Jamie Foxx

February 15, 2018/0 Comments/in Blog Post, News /by FitPay

“Blame it on the Game” VIP event to raise the profile of contactless payments

MELBOURNE, Florida, February 15 – Fit Pay, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of NXT-ID, Inc. (NASDAQ: NXTD), today announced that it is co-sponsoring the Jack Daniel’s “Blame it on the Game” VIP Party hosted by Jamie Foxx in conjunction with All-Star Weekend, February 16 – 18, 2018.  The co-sponsorship is intended to raise the profile of contactless payments within the sports and entertainment industries. A select number of guests including professional athletes, celebrities and industry executives will receive a Garmin® vívoactive 3® smartwatch customized with a Jack Daniel’s watch face and loaded with Garmin PayTM contactless payment feature powered by FitPay.

“We are extremely excited that Fit Pay, Inc., has partnered with Jack Daniel’s to co-sponsor this amazing event during the 2018 All-Star Weekend in Los Angeles, CA,” states Eric Gudger, Portfolio Brand Manager for Brown Forman (NYSE: BFA, BFB). “Jack Daniel’s has always been on the forefront of new ideas through its various brands, and the co-branding on the Garmin vívoactive 3 timepiece is a great way for us to continue our commitment to enhance our brand with loyal consumers and tastemakers.”

The “Blame it on the Game” VIP Party hosted by Jamie Foxx is presented by Jack Daniel’s. The invitation-only event will take place in Los Angeles, CA. In January, Jack Daniel’s and the National Basketball Association (NBA) announced a new multiyear partnership making Jack Daniel’s an official marketing partner of the NBA, the Women’s National Basketball Association (WNBA), the NBA Development League (D-League), and USA Basketball. The sponsorship includes a variety of Jack Daniel’s hosted events, media and hospitality programs throughout the NBA, WNBA, NBA D-League and USA Basketball. The “Blame it on the Game” VIP Party will take place in conjunction with All-Star Weekend.

“Teaming with a lifestyle brand like Jack Daniel’s really emphasizes our belief that consumers should have the freedom to pay for things in a way that fits the way they live,” said Michael Orlando, president of Fit Pay, Inc. and COO of NXT-ID.  “The Jack Daniel’s moto ‘Live Freely’ closely ties to how we think about payments – free from your wallet, free from your phone.”

The FitPay Payment PlatformTM provides Garmin Pay and the vívoactive 3 with contactless payment capabilities and full digital wallet functionality within the Garmin ConnectTM app, enabling consumers to simply tap and pay with the smartwatch at NFC-enabled POS terminals using an existing credit or debit card account. FitPay’s proprietary technology platform uses tokenization, a payment security technology that replaces cardholders’ account information with a unique digital identifier (a “token”), to transact highly secure contactless payment and authentication services. This frees devices from needing to be tethered to a host device or connected to the Internet to transact payments, creating a convenient and completely frictionless payment experience. Manufacturers of 15 IoT and wearable devices are currently integrating with the FitPay Payment Platform.

NXT-ID Subsidiary Fit Pay Announces Flip – a Contactless Payment Device for Cryptocurrencies

February 8, 2018/0 Comments/in Blog Post, News /by FitPay

Contactless payment instrument to be funded with value exchanged from cryptocurrency

MELBOURNE, Florida, February 8, 2018 – Fit Pay, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of NXT-ID, Inc. (NASDAQ: NXTD), today announced FlipTM, a new contactless payment device that will enable cryptocurrency holders to use the value of their currency to make purchases at millions of retail locations. The launch of the new device follows a December 2017 announcement by Fit Pay that it is expanding its platform to connect cryptocurrencies to the payment ecosystem. Leveraging the FitPay Payment PlatformTM, Flip will use value exchanged from cryptocurrency to make traditional payment transactions. The FitPay will begin taking pre-orders for Flip in February 2018 on a date to be announced.

“Flip is a very convenient way to use cryptocurrency value to make retail transactions,” said Michael Orlando, COO of NXT-ID and President of Fit Pay, Inc. “Not only does it seamlessly exchange cryptocurrency into dollars, it’s contactless, giving users a simple tap-to-pay experience.”

Flip will be near field communication-enabled (NFC) allowing it to transact payments at any retail point of sale location that accepts contactless payments. Flip will store a preloaded amount of U.S. dollars that are exchanged from the user’s existing cryptocurrency account. It includes a digital wallet that allows the user to set how much value they would like their Flip to hold and when they would like it to reload.  Initially, Flip will accept value exchanged from Bitcoin and will potentially expand to other cryptocurrencies in the future.

“When we announced that we were extending the FitPay Platform to cryptocurrencies, our goal was leverage our existing technology to connect cryptocurrencies to the payment ecosystem,” said Orlando. “That’s exactly what Flip achieves. And it continues to expand our offerings, furthering our mission to fundamentally change the way people pay.”

Consumers interested in Flip can add their email address to the Flip interest list at FliptoPay.com. Pre-orders for Flip on FliptoPay.com will begin in February 2018 on a date to be announced, with initial deliveries expected in the second quarter of 2018. Flip is currently only available in the United States. For more information, visit FliptoPay.com.

FitPay and Cascade Financial Technology Corp (Cascade FinTech) recently announced an agreement for the joint development of the platform that will be used to enable Flip, giving cryptocurrency holders the ability to use the value exchanged from cryptocurrency to be used for traditional payment transactions. The agreement is an expansion of an existing relationship between the two companies to provide prepaid capabilities on wearable and Internet of Things (IoT) devices connected to the FitPay Payment Platform. The prepaid, or GPR, option gives consumers with FitPay’s contactless payment-enabled devices the convenience of storing funds directly on their device. Under the previous agreement, the FitPay Platform connects to the Cascade CloudTM to enable contactless payment GPR devices in a variety of form factors.

NXT-ID Subsidiary Fit Pay and Cascade FinTech to Create Platform for Connecting Cryptocurrencies to the Payment Ecosystem

December 20, 2017/0 Comments/in Uncategorized /by FitPay

Collaboration will enable devices to make contactless payments with value exchanged from cryptocurrency

MELBOURNE, Florida, December 20, 2017 – Fit Pay, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of NXT-ID, Inc. (NASDAQ: NXTD) and Cascade Financial Technology Corp (Cascade FinTech) today announced an agreement for the joint development of a platform that gives cryptocurrency holders the ability to use the value of their currency to make purchases at millions of retail locations worldwide. The new platform will enable devices with stored value exchanged from cryptocurrency to be used for traditional payment transactions.

“As cryptocurrencies increase in value and distribution, the need to create new methods to monetize their value and enabling models for acceptance is the critical last mile,” said Michael Orlando, COO of NXT-ID and President of Fit Pay, Inc. “Our development effort with Cascade seeks to connect cryptocurrencies to the payment ecosystem as a natural extension of FitPay’s platform.  It will give cryptocurrency holders the opportunity to effortlessly use their value to make purchases every day, just as they would use a credit or debit card, and transform the way people pay.”

Under the agreement, which is an extension of a current relationship between FitPay and Cascade, the two companies will collaborate to create a platform that seamlessly transfers cryptocurrency value into widely accepted forms of payment and stores that value on devices capable of making contactless payments. This will give cryptocurrency holders the ability to make transactions with value derived from cryptocurrency at any near field communication-enabled point of sale terminals.

“Cryptocurrencies are becoming a more common way of storing and transferring value, so there is a tremendous need to enable that value to be used to purchase goods and services,” said Cascade FinTech Founder and Chief Executive Officer Spencer Schmerling. “Our collaboration with FitPay will create a platform that does just that – connecting cryptocurrency to the mainstream economy in a whole new way.”

“As a security technology company, our mission to protect users, data and transmissions is very relevant to the emergence of cryptocurrencies and blockchain in general,” Gino Pereira CEO of NXT-ID said. “As such, we are working on ways that we can add value to this emerging space and this partnership is the first of anticipated future offerings from the company.”

FitPay and Cascade FinTech previously entered into an agreement to provide prepaid capabilities on wearable devices and Internet of Things (IoT) devices connected to the FitPay Payment PlatformTM. The prepaid, or general purpose reloadable (GPR), option gives consumers with FitPay’s contactless payment-enabled devices the convenience of storing funds directly on their device. Under the previous agreement, the FitPay Platform connects to the Cascade CloudTM to enable contactless payment GPR devices in a variety of form factors.

The expansion of the agreement will seek to extend similar capabilities with value derived from cryptocurrencies. The joint development of the cryptocurrency platform by FitPay and Cascade FinTech is expected to be launched in early 2018. Once launched, the platform will create opportunities for recurring revenue from account and transaction fees.

ANZ and NXT-ID Subsidiary Fit Pay Collaborate to Bring New Tap and Go Payment Devices to the Australian Market

December 19, 2017/0 Comments/in News /by FitPay

Agreement will provide new contactless payment options for ANZ customers

MELBOURNE, Florida, December 19, 2017 – Australia and New Zealand Banking Group Limited (ANZ) and Fit Pay, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of NXT-ID, Inc. (NASDAQ: NXTD), today announced an agreement to extend contactless payment capabilities to a range of new devices. The agreement enables ANZ cardholders to make secure contactless payments at NFC-enabled point-of-sale locations directly from Internet of Things (IoT) and wearable devices that are integrated with the FitPayTM payment platform.

“We are very pleased to be working with one of Australia’s leading banks to help drive the adoption of new contactless payment technology,” said Michael Orlando, COO of NXT-ID and President of Fit Pay, Inc. “Australians have embraced the convenience of tap and go payments. This agreement allows them to enjoy that same frictionless payment experience on a wider variety of devices.”

Under the agreement, ANZ will participate in FitPay’s Token Requester Program, which enables cardholders to securely add their payment credentials to devices that are integrated with FitPay’s contactless payment platform. The platform uses tokenization, a payment security technology that replaces cardholders’ account information with a unique digital identifier (a “token”), to transact highly secure contactless payments. It allows consumers to pay at near-field communication-enabled point-of-sale terminals with a simple tap.

The collaboration with ANZ includes ensuring that the devices meet ANZ’s technical, usage, security, branding, and consumer experience requirements. Manufacturers of 15 IoT and wearable devices are currently integrating with the FitPay Payment PlatformTM. Product announcements from the manufacturers of these devices are anticipated in throughout the next year.

Australia leads the world in the adoption of contactless payments, with 4 in 5 consumers making at least one contactless payment a week.

ANZ is one of the five largest listed companies in Australia and the number one bank in New Zealand. It operates in more than 34 markets across Australia, New Zealand, Asia, Pacific, Europe, America and the Middle East including a technology and operations center in Bengaluru, India.

Garmin® and NXT-ID Subsidiary FitPay Expand Garmin Pay to Visa Accountholders

December 5, 2017/0 Comments/in Uncategorized /by FitPay

Contactless Payment Capability Now Supported by Major Card Issuers on the Visa

MELBOURNE, Florida, December 5, 2017 – Garmin International, Inc. (NASDAQ: GRMN) and Fit Pay, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of NXT-ID, Inc. (NASDAQ: NXTD), today announced that the Garmin PayTM contactless payment feature is now available for eligible Visa credit, debit and prepaid accounts from many of the network’s major participating issuing banks. The new feature on Garmin’s latest smartwatch, the vívoactive® 3, enables consumers to make highly secure contactless payments at near-field communication-enabled (NFC) point-of-sale (POS) terminals, allowing them to tap to pay at millions of retails locations and contactless-enabled ATMs.

“We’re excited to expand the availability of Garmin Pay to Visa cardholders,” said Dan Bartel, Garmin vice president of worldwide sales. “The ability to make purchases right from the wrist, without phone or wallet, is an incredibly valuable feature for our active lifestyle customers.”

The vívoactive 3 with contactless payment feature, Garmin Pay, is an early product to utilize the Visa Ready for Tokenization Program, via TSP* program partner FitPay. The Visa Ready for Tokenization program gives partners access to Visa’s broad network of tools and services to speed up and simplify the process for embedding secure payments in devices.

Garmin Pay is now available to Visa accountholders from numerous participating issuing banks including Bank of America, Capital One, and U.S. Bank in the United States, and BonusCard, Cornérbank, ANZ and NAB (National Australia Bank) internationally.

“Just in time for the holidays, Visa accountholders now have a simpler way to pay on-the-go with the Garmin vívoactive 3. Fitness trackers always appear on the season’s must have lists and this year, Visa accountholders have another reason to pick up the smartwatch,” said Jason Blackhurst, senior vice president, innovation and strategic partnerships, Visa. “We look forward to continuing to add more participating issuing banks so additional Visa accountholders can experience the benefits of payments on the Garmin vívoactive 3.”

“Consumers want paying for things to be faster, easier and more convenient,” said Michael Orlando, president of FitPay, Inc. and COO of NXT-ID. “By supporting Garmin Pay, Visa and its issuing banks are helping to make that happen – giving consumers access to latest payment technology and enabling the way they pay to fit more seamlessly into the way they live.”

The FitPay Payment Platform provides the vívoactive 3 with contactless payment capabilities, and full digital wallet functionality the Garmin Pay within the Garmin Connect app. It enables consumers to simply tap and pay at NFC-enabled POS terminals or ATMs using an existing credit, debit or prepaid card account.

FitPay’s proprietary technology platform uses tokenization, a payment security technology that replaces cardholders’ account information with a unique digital identifier (a “token”), to transact highly secure contactless payment and authentication services. FitPay leverages Embedded Secure Element (eSE) chip technology within devices to offer a payment solution that is very power and memory efficient. This frees devices from needing to be tethered to a host device or connected to the Internet to transact payments, creating a convenient and completely frictionless payment experience for consumers.

Garmin Pay was initially launched in November 2017 for Mastercard accountholders from numerous issuing banks and credit unions. View the complete list of issuing banks, payment networks and countries supporting Garmin Pay at Garmin.com/garminpay/banks. Additional networks and card issuers will be added to Garmin Pay soon.

Garmin® and NXT-ID Subsidiary FitPay Announce Garmin Pay Now Live on Garmin vívoactive® 3 Smartwatch

November 17, 2017/0 Comments/in Blog Post, News /by FitPay

Contactless Payment Capability Supported by Major Card Issuers 

MELBOURNE, Florida, November 17, 2017 – Garmin International, Inc. (NASDAQ: GRMN) and Fit Pay, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of NXT-ID, Inc. (NASDAQ: NXTD), today announce that the Garmin PayTM contactless payment feature is now live on Garmin’s vívoactive 3 smartwatch and available to cardholders of issuing banks supporting the new service. The new feature on Garmin’s latest smartwatch enables consumers to make highly secure contactless payments at near-field communication-enabled (NFC) point-of-sale (POS) retail locations, adding a powerful new capability to one of the most complete smartwatches on the market for the active consumer.

“With Garmin Pay, vívoactive 3 wearers now have the freedom to leave their phone and wallet at home when they go to run or work out, and still be able to make purchases wherever their day takes them,” said Dan Bartel, Garmin vice president of worldwide sales. “The vívoactive 3 is an indispensable tool for any active lifestyle and we appreciate the support that card issuing banks have provided to make this exciting new feature available to their cardholders.”

Garmin Pay is available on the vívoactive 3, which was announced by Garmin at the IFA Consumer Electronic Unlimited show in Berlin, Germany on August 31, 2017. The new contactless payment capability is powered by the FitPayTM payment platform and available initially for Mastercard cardholders from numerous issuing banks and credit unions including BECU, Capital One, First Tech Federal Credit Union, and U.S. Bank in the United States, and internationally through Commonwealth Bank of Australia, Cornèrcard, Sberbank of Russia, and Swiss Bankers Prepaid Services Ltd.  This includes the initial launch day participants. Additional networks and issuers will be added soon. View supported country, payment network and issuing bank information at Garmin.com/garminpay/banks.

“We are excited that Mastercard cardholders will be the first consumers to make contactless payments using their Garmin vívoactive 3 smartwatches,” said Kiki Del Valle, senior vice president, Commerce for Every Device. “Working with leading issuers across four markets is just the beginning of delivering more choice in how consumers can make payments that match their digital lifestyles.”

“Bringing a powerful feature like Garmin Pay to market requires building an entire ecosystem to enable it,” said Michael Orlando, president of Fit Pay, Inc. and COO of NXT-ID. “By supporting the launch of Garmin Pay and the FitPay platform, Mastercard and its participating issuing banks have shown a real commitment to making payments more convenient for consumers and to reducing friction in the payment process.”

The FitPay platform provides Garmin Pay and the vívoactive 3 with contactless payment capabilities and full digital wallet functionality within the Garmin Connect app, enabling consumers to simply tap and pay with the smartwatch at NFC-enabled POS terminals using an existing credit or debit card account. FitPay’s proprietary technology platform uses tokenization, a payment security technology that replaces cardholders’ account information with a unique digital identifier (a “token”), to transact highly secure contactless payment and authentication services. FitPay leverages Embedded Secure Element (eSE) chip technology within devices to offer a payment solution that is very power and memory efficient and does not need to refresh a token once it is issued. This frees devices from needing to be tethered to a host device or connected to the Internet to transact payments, creating a convenient and completely frictionless payment experience.
