All week, we’re exploring the latest innovations in promotional technologies and the most effective products to enhance your brand image. 

Today, we’re taking a look at some of the most innovative electronic accessories that are designed to make the lives of your customers even easier. Although some of today’s promotional items could have fit in well with Monday’s theme, you’ll soon find out why they deserve the spotlight in today’s blog.

In April 2017, over 416 million contactless payments were made in the UK alone. From public transport in London to vending machines, contactless payments have become the norm with 49% of UK face-to-face transactions being made with a contactless card, phone, or similar… and that’s where our first product comes in.

Powerbank Payment Fob

When it comes to 2-in-1 brandable merchandise, very few products come close to the practicality or promotional power of the brand new Powerbank Payment Fob. Unlike any other portable phone charger on the market, the Powerbank Payment Fob uses bPay; Barclaycard’s contactless technology, meaning that you can make payments of £45 and under with one simple touch.

Working as a digital wallet, simply top up the Powerbank Payment Fob using the bPay app, and your customers are good to go instantly. Even if your consumers don’t bank with Barclays, the bPay app can be linked to any Visa or Mastercard credit or debit card.

With a built in 2-in-1 charging cable for both Lightning and Micro-USB devices, the fob also can provide up to 20% smartphone charge with a rechargeable 450mAh battery. Fortunately, if you need make a payment and charge your phone, the bPay chip doesn’t require power to make a transaction.

At only 70mm tall, it would be somewhat of an understatement to describe the fob as portable. With the ability to clip it to your key, this is the perfect tool to promote your brand every time your customer puts their hands in their pocket.

With double-sided branding opportunities, and full-colour printing available, you can make sure that your brand stands out.

The iData air is available with up to 64gb of storage space. With the opportunity to personalise it with full-colour printing this is an innovative product that can boost your brand when your customers need a little space.

Bespoke USB Drives
