VoyagerBlue on BBC Radio 2 14th DEC

VoyagerBlue's creator will be discussing contactless cards and VoyagerBlue on the Simon Mayo show today 14th Dec 2012

Announcing that London buses are accepting contactless card payments here is what they say about the fact that more than one card may be read;
"If you present two cards together, the reader will normally reject them both," an email to Oyster card users said.
"But there is a small possibility of payment being taken from a card which you did not intend to use."
TfL said it planned to introduce the technology to the London Underground Tube system at a later point.
see the full article here BBC NEWS LONDON BUSES.

Surely this highlights again that unwanted scanning of your cards is possible. If the bus company "may" do it by accident then what about someone with fraudulent intentions?

VoyagerBlue® can protect your other cards and you can still use your oyster card, here's how.
By placing VB on the inside with the Oyster card outside all your VERY important cards are shielded but the Oyster card still work, so:
A) It allows you to proceed as usual through the turnstile without opening your wallet or purse.
B) Keeps all your other contactless cards safe from criminal access at the same time.

Read about how our contactless bank card shields can help you protect whats in your wallet.

New ideas for 2013

Christmas fast approaching and everyone is thinking about gifts. So too in the world of promotional gifts. Companies like to give away a memorable item to their key clients, we all enjoy the wine passed out by our suppliers at this time of year or maybe something a bit stronger if they feel you are worth it. There is a reason for this, memory, they want you to remember them and keep doing business.

So apart from the festive tipple what else do companies use to keep them in your mind? Pens, USB sticks are an obvious choice from the current market, maybe you put the corporate calender from a supplier at the top of your wish list? Great for them, their name in view all year. And that is what its about, getting their name in your head for as long as possible.

A key factor in corporate gifting or promotional giveaway campaign is innovation. How unique is a product? We all get many pens with logo's but if you are like me you don't always remember where they are from, unless its a good quality product that you really get on with.

Corporate bodies want something unique, if possible innovative and they like being the first to promote their brand using that product. As we search for new ideas we meet many innovators and we meet people with some crazy ideas.

As we move forward we aim to bring innovations and a few crazy ideas to the promotional market. Following on from our range of contactless bank card and e-passport shields we now welcome a fantastic range of smart phone cases. Smart phone cases with a difference though, these are PowerCases, which are specially designed and engineered to ensure an ultra slim and sleek profile, yet carry a powerful re-chargeable lithium polymer battery that uses the latest technology to give you more power while you’re on the move.
