Users can also “top up easily and check their transaction history and balance at any time”, Pan adds. The system “has call, message and task reminder functions” – and for the fitness fan, a built-in G-sensor can be used as a pedometer and the whole system is protected by Watch data’s own embedded high security process at level CC EAL6. The Chinese manufacturer developed the product in partnership with Infineon.
