Mondaine PayChip 

The Mondaine PayChip can be inserted into a specially developed strap with a pocket, or into a special strap loop, which can be added to multiple Mondaine watches.

In addition, the system enables consumers to swap the chip from one watch to another.

André Bernheim, Mondaine Group co-owner, said: “Four years after the first launch of the pay chip’s first generation, we are proud to launch the latest state of the art technology today. After thorough evaluation of various contactless payment technologies, we decided to enter into collaboration with Fidesmo as they provide a ready contactless payment system and even future developments far beyond payment.

“I have been using the original pay chip since 2016, and could not imagine living without it as I don’t carry a physical wallet with me anymore. Whenever I pay with my pay chip, people around me are asking ‘how did you do that, that’s amazing’. I think, everyone should have a pay chip and enjoy the freedom to carry it on various watches thanks to our patented straps and strap loops.”
