Thales: launches talking payment card

(CercleFinance.com) - Thales, in collaboration with its partner Handsome, has developed a solution to protect visually impaired people from fraud or mistakes made when paying for a purchase.


With the Thales 'Voice Payment Card' - the payment card that talks - people who are blind or visually impaired will benefit from a safe and autonomous payment experience when making everyday purchases.

This connected card "whispers", via a telephone, each step of a transaction to its owner's ear before the final validation of the amount. An innovation now certified by Visa and Mastercard.

Convinced of the interest of this unique solution, several banks are planning to market it soon.
