30 Credit Card Innovations

From Suave Payment Suits to Credit Card Tip Jars

— May 12, 2014 — Tech
In today's technologically inclined and fast-paced world, credit card innovations are fast-spreading. Customers are a lot more inclined to quickly swipe their cards than wait for the cashier to give them their change. No matter what your personal pace in life is or how technology-friendly you are, there is a credit card innovation in this list that will appeal to you.

If you fit in the Wall Street, business-saavy demographic, The Power Suit will help you skip the entire card payment process entirely. The suit includes a chip and antenna in the sleeve in order to make payments with the wave of the wearer's wrist. Many credit card companies also offer up coinciding apps so that you can live-track your credit, purchases and payments.
