By default, you can use your wearable for contactless payments for 3 years from the time it is connected to the bank. However, this depends on your bank.

The payment service is provided by your bank.

When your payment card is linked, a reference to your card is stored. This reference is called a token and is stored by LAKS in the wearable.

Please note, however, that we have no influence on the function of the token and cannot accept any liability for it.

After the three years have expired, you can have your wearable personalised again, provided that the payment service is supported by your bank. To do this, you must return the wearable to us or order a replacement card – depending on which wearable you have. The cost for this is € 20.00 plus shipping costs.

Contactless payments are based on a signal generated by the payment terminal. This is possible through Near Field Communication (NFC). This is a radio technology with a relatively short range. The wearable and the payment terminal should therefore be as close as possible to each other during the payment process.

LAKS has taken advantage of the passive mode of NFC technology, so the LAKS wearables themselves do not generate a return signal. This is because active NFC readers (payment terminals) are used to read passive transponders (LAKS Wearable card).

Payment process
Please check where the payment chip in your wearable is located and hold this part of the wearable to the payment terminal.

Similar to the process of contactless payment with your debit or credit card, you must hold your LAKS Wearable to the contact point of the payment terminal – look for the contactless sign on the terminal. Only then the signal can be recognised. A detailed description of this procedure is enclosed with your order. With less sensitive payment terminals this may take a few moments.

If the payment process is successful, you will be notified – depending on the terminal – by a tone or a green light.

The Ring2Pay is waterproof and the Key2Pay – except the Key2Pay MINI (made of genuine leather) is waterproof.

The rest of LAKS PAY products should be taken off when swimming, showering or bathing.

The LAKS technology enables contactless payment via NFC. NFC is also used with common debit or credit cards and therefore does not represent a security risk.

Wearing the chip generates neither radiation nor vibrations that can affect your body. This is because LAKS wearables use the passive mode of NFC technology.

Active NFC readers (payment terminals) read the passive transponders (LAKS Wearable card). LAKS Wearables do not generate a return signal themselves and therefore do not pose a risk to your health.
