WEARABLE TRANSACTION DEVICE

Abstract:

A wearable transaction device may include a housing, a fastener component attached to the housing, and an electronic chip secured within the housing. The wearable transaction device may detect a connection with a user device, and receive, from the user device and via the connection, security information for operating the wearable transaction device. The security information may indicate one or more conditions for placing the wearable transaction device in a payment mode or a non-payment mode. The wearable transaction device may receive a request to perform the transaction, and determine, based on the security information, whether the wearable transaction device is in the payment mode or the non-payment mode. The wearable transaction device may selectively perform the transaction based on whether the wearable transaction device is in the payment mode or the non-payment mode.
