i2c Inc. has announced partnership with Purewrist. Under this partnership, the companies will deliver wearable solutions to enable contactless payments at events, retail stores, transit and more.
Under the agreement i2c and Purewrist will provide clients and consumers with the ability to utilize unique wearable payment technology that is affordable, accessible and sanitary.
i2c’s platform will process the tap-and-go payments made with Purewrist GO wearable at near-field communication (NFC)-enabled devices.

Purewrist, along with i2c’s payments platform, can quickly launch branded programmes in the payments space.
