Card of the Future

Amazing perception of where credit cards could take us.

Some people still prefer carrying cash around. We have sort of phased paper money out of our lives, keeping a spare $20 around in case of emergencies. The one dangerous thing about only using a bank card is that you can lose track of your spending really quick. A futuristic design concept might change how we budget ourselves.

Using RFID technology, Designer Jacob Palmborg has conceived of this futuristic card that would have real time data for all of your existing accounts. A screen interface would display your current available balance as well as recent purchases and receipts. Biometric security features make sure that only you can access the information. Something like this also produces the possibility to have one all-encompassing card that could hold your drivers license and passport.
