Sharkey is a smart wearable device, with watch and wristband two form factors, supporting NFC payment feature. After being connected with Android or iOS phone’s mobile terminal via Bluetooth, Sharkey can be used for contactless payment, including public transport (both bus and subway), supermarket shopping, and micropayments, such as China UnionPay. Users can top up online and check their transaction history and balance anytime. In addition, Sharkey has call, message and task reminder functions, and with its built-in G-Sensor, it can function as a pedometer to keep track on user’s steps everyday.
