Media Advisory: NXT-ID Demo's Wocket™ Smart Wallet Financial Transaction

SHELTON, Conn., June 13, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- NXT-ID, Inc. (OTCQB: NXTD), a biometric authentication company focused on the growing m-commerce market, releases a video of the next generation smart wallet, Wocket™, designed to replace all the cards in your wallet, executing a financial transaction.

Mr. Gino Pereira, CEO of NXT-ID, Inc. explains step-by-step how to make a Wocket transaction:

"All your important personal information is secured on a tamper-proof encrypted chip on your Wocket, so if you were to lose your wallet, there is no payment information available to be stolen. Using your Wocket is simple:

1. To access a card for payment, you would first verify your identity by using a spoken password (Wocket recognizes your voice), or by entering a PIN or image on the touch screen.

2. Touch the drop-down menu at the top left of the screen. You will see a list of categories such as debit, credit, loyalty etc. and select the appropriate category.

3. Choose the card you wish to use on the touchscreen and remove the WocketCard from your Wocket.

4. Swipe your WocketCard as you would any regular credit card.

Wocket is also capable of producing a "wocket number" which is a one-time use encrypted card number to prevent skimming attacks and protect your private card information. This technology can also be applied to online transactions, making card processing much more secure using today's existing payment infrastructure."

CORRECTION/ SoundView Technology Group Issues NXT-ID Update Following Wocket Smart Wallet Launch Event

BOSTON, June 11, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- SoundView Technology Group: We attended the NXT-ID (OTCQB:NXTD) (OTCBB: NXTD) Wocket(TM) smart wallet launch event in NYC on May 28th and were pleased with the number of features present in the device demonstrated and encouraged by early consumer reaction to the Wocket.

Just one week later we heard Rudy Giuliani talk about how cyber crime has reached "crisis proportions" because "all our sensitive data is in the cloud for criminals to access." His sentiment helps explain why a secure device like the Wocket will be a preferred solution for sensitive financial and other key data.

NXT-ID is offering pre-orders for the Wocket smart wallet (www.wocketwallet.com) at $149 and the first shipments to customers are planned for late September. After a review we are keeping our 2014 forecast of 40,000 units and will be evaluating consumer response in order to validate our longer term projects.

We're also introducing a longer term intrinsic value (IV) estimate of $20.55 for 2015. With a current IV estimate of $11.70 we think growth investors will find the risk/reward of this situation to be attractive.

We previously stated in a prior update, " We believe in the digital conversion of our "wallet" over time and know that mobile devices alone won't be the answer for many years due to power limits, lack of privacy and security concerns. Nobody knows if the NXT-ID Wocket is going to be "the one" but we do know that so far it's the most well designed product we have seen that is coming to market this year."

More Protection with NXT-ID's Wocket™ Smart Wallet; Securely Store All Your Passwords in Your Own Personal Vault

SHELTON, Conn., June 10, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- NXT-ID, Inc. (OTCQB:NXTD), a biometric authentication company focused on the growing mobile commerce market, revealed today its Wocket™ Smart Wallet will include a password storage feature, further demonstrating the versatility of Wocket™ to store and protect a wide range of private information. With this password list feature, Wocket™ owners can store and securely access all their login credentials such as usernames and passwords on a Wocket™ in addition to payment, loyalty, identity and other cards typically held within a wallet. Users will be soon be able to utilize Wocket™ for secure, biometrically locked, password storage in lieu of similar online solutions where data is at risk.

"Passwords continue to be a difficult issue for consumers. 2013 was clearly the "Year of Personal Data Breach", with 110 million credit and debit card account numbers lost to hackers by Target alone," says David Tunnell, CTO of NXT-ID. "Heartbleed and other security vulnerabilities demonstrate the need for a new method for consumer's to protect their private data. Users all over the world utilize online password storage services to store thousands of passwords behind one master password. If a hacker were to gain access to that one master password, they would gain access to all the user's passwords. That is the root of the problem with online storage of private data."

Wocket™ enables users to store and encrypt their passwords locally, and securely inside their own smart wallet. Wocket™ owners will also be able to store other sensitive information such as Social Security Numbers and insurance cards on Wocket™ instead of online servers and applications where their identity is potentially vulnerable.

Wocket™ is a smart wallet in the same vein as the smart phone and smart watch. NXT-ID is introducing its innovative, patent-pending Wocket™ as the next natural step in the evolution of smart devices. Wocket™ is a next generation smart wallet designed to protect your identity and replace all the cards in your wallet, with no smart phone required. The Wocket works anywhere credit cards are accepted and only works with your biometric stamp of approval.

Security and Convenience in the Payment Industry: CEOs of Dwolla and NXT-ID's Wocket™ Share How They Plan to Revolutionize the Sector

NEW YORK and POINT ROBERTS, Washington, June 5, 2014 /PRNewswire/ --

Investorideas.com, a global news source covering leading sectors including mobile payments and payment technologies, issues a report on emerging payment technology companies Dwolla and NXT-ID, Inc (OTCQB: NXTD) (OTCBB: NXTD). Recently, InvestorIdeas attended both the Cartes Conference held in Las Vegas and the NXT-ID, Inc. Wocket™ smart wallet press conference held at the Plaza Hotel in New York, gaining insight on how the CEOs of the two companies are taking very different approaches towards solving the same problem: security in the payment industry.

The ongoing breaches that consumers and businesses are faced with daily, such as those that have affected Target and eBay, have incited the birth of new technologies including mobile apps, internet and cloud solutions and new digital wallets. They are all looking to protect our identity and make our financial transactions secure.

CEO and Founder of Dwolla Ben Milne said at Cartes, "We set money free."

The Company website says "We're not like those other big payment companies that rely on plastic cards and charge hefty fees. Instead, we've built our own network that securely connects to your bank account and allows you to move money for just $0.25 per transaction, or free for transactions $10 or less."

At the Cartes conference he told a captive audience, "We literally took everything the card does and built it into a protocol and just replaced the card and with it a whole lot of problems go out the door. This is not a philosophical idea, this has actually been built and being distributed. We are currently integrated with governments, businesses and even banks. Some regulated entities and publicly traded companies utilize our network on a daily basis and it's all without a card!"

So Dwolla aims to eliminate our plastic cards - while newcomer NXT-ID, Inc. wants to replace all the cards in your wallet (up to 10,000 if you have them) with one biometrically secure card and a Wocket™ smart wallet.

Mr. Gino Pereira, Chief Executive Officer of NXT-ID started his presentation at the Plaza by stating "Meet Wocket, the smartest wallet you will ever own."

"In the last 18 months there have been a billion breaches of private information. One in ten of us have had our identity stolen. What can we actually do about this? It turns out that 44% of identity fraud can be traced to a stolen wallet or purse. If we can do something about protecting the information in our wallets, then we can cut down tremendously on the incidents of identity fraud. That's why you need a Wocket."

He went on to explain, "You can store 10,000 pieces of information on here in your own personal vault, It can only be accessed by you, by your voice biometrically or with a PIN, or by drawing a shape on a screen. You can store all your loyalty cards, gift cards, credit cards, on a slim, easy-to-use device. We think this is the evolution of smart. You started with smartphones, you then had smart watches; this is a smart wallet."

"When you select a card that you want to use on your Wocket touchscreen, it gets programmed on the Wocket card. You hand the Wocket card to your server or attendant and they will check you out just like with any other credit card. But it's on one single card! For security, the information that is transferred onto the card is erased or zeroized a very short time after it is charged."

He closed with "This is the Wocket™, it retails for $149.99 and it's available at http://www.wocketwallet.com", followed by a public demonstration of the first financial transaction with a Wocket™.

According to a recent report from Business Intelligence, "The credit card companies themselves aren't going anywhere for now. Visa and MasterCard in particular will remain an indispensable part of the chain because they don't actually process payments. They simply provide the rails that the credit card system runs on. Credit card processors like First Data that actually do the work of processing merchants' credit card transactions on the back-end are also in a strong position."

So what is the future of payments; one card, no card? "One thing we know is the way we do it today is not ideal", said Ben Milne of Dwolla.

Mr. Gino Pereira, Chief Executive Officer of NXT-ID quoted well-known scientist Alan Kay during his presentation reminding us, "The best way to predict the future is to invent it."

NXT-ID, Inc. Announces Wocket™, its Next Generation Smart Wallet is now Available to Order - Put One in Your Pocket

SHELTON, Conn., May 28, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- NXT-ID, Inc., (OTCQB: NXTD) (OTCBB: NXTD) a biometric authentication company focused on the growing m-commerce market, announces its next generation smart wallet, Wocket™ , designed to replace all the cards in your wallet is now available to order at www.wocketwallet.com . The Wocket retail price is $149.99.

Wocket™ is a smart wallet in the same vein as the smart phone and smart watch. NXT-ID is introducing its innovative, patent-pending Wocket™ as the next natural step in the evolution of smart devices. Wocket™ is a next generation smart wallet designed to protect your identity and replace all the cards in your wallet, with no smart phone required. The Wocket works anywhere credit cards are accepted and only works with your biometric stamp of approval.

Gino Pereira, CEO of NXT-ID, Inc. said, "Today is a milestone for both NXT-ID and consumers that are concerned about the security of their wallet. We designed the Wocket specifically for the consumer of today that is still not willing to put all their payment and identity info on their smartphone. We believe Wocket is the solution that addresses security issues that consumers care about but still is convenient and easy to use."

The full Wocket product FAQ is available to consumers and media at
http://nxt-id.com/wocket-faq/

FAQ Highlights :

"What is Wocket ™?
Wocket™ is a smart wallet. Like the smart phone and smart watch, NXT-ID is introducing its innovative, patent-pending Wocket™ as the next natural step in the evolution of smart devices.

"What does Wocket™ do?
Wocket™ locks all of your private information in an electronic "vault", where only an authenticated owner can authorize access to the data. Thus, you can "lock it with Wocket™ in your pocket", protecting your private information from unauthorized access.

"What makes Wocket™ smart?
Wocket™ smart wallet protects all of your private information inside an electronic vault while reducing the number of cards in your wallet. Dynamic pairing for authentication and encrypted data transfer with other secondary devices along with a plethora of new, innovative features makes Wocket™ the smartest wallet ever devised.

"How is Wocket™ different from other smart card solutions?
Wocket™ is not a smart card - it is a smart wallet. Thus, it can communicate with smart cards, but is not limited in the number, type, or method of communication of private information that typically restricts the use of a smart card. Furthermore, Wocket™ is not dependent on proximity or any other external factors to secure and choose soft-cards containing private information.

"How is Wocket™ different from other digital wallet solutions?
Rather than replace a wallet as many "digital wallet" technologies attempt to do, we chose to improve the wallet. Unlike other digital wallet solutions that depend on connectivity to choose a payment account, Wocket™ does not depend upon the cloud to select or make a payment.

"Does Wocket™ require another device, such as a cell phone?
No. Although Wocket™ does not require any other peripheral for security or "proximity sensing", Wocket™ can authenticate with secondary devices prior to transaction as an additional step in security as well as utilize a Wocket™ app on other devices to select or manage a soft-card, all without revealing private information.

"How do I access my private information?
A combination of biometrics, personal PIN or pattern provides multi-factor security for your Wocket™. Once Wocket™ verifies your identity, you can simply select whatever soft-card or information you want from the touch screen display, or in some configurations, your voice command.

"How many cards can be securely stored on a Wocket™?
Up to 10,000 cards, records, coupons, etc. and up to 100 voice commands can also be stored on Wocket™. More can be supported with optional additional memory.

Mobile Payment / mCommerce News: Recently, Verizon (NYSE: VZ) added tablets to its monthly device payment plan, also known as Edge. With tablets on Edge, you are looking at the same deal as you would get with phones - no upgrade fees, full device value split into 20 equal monthly payments, and the option to upgrade once you have owned the device for 30 days and have have paid off 60% of it. As you can see from the screenshot, devices like the new Sony Xperia Z2 Tablet are already included. Verizon also sells the Galaxy Tab 4, G Pad 8.3, Nexus 7 (2013), Galaxy Note Pro 12.2, and all of the iPads.

Fighting the trend that has seen millennial consumers-those aged 18 to 34-increasingly pulled away from traditional banking channels in favor of all digital methods of storing, moving and using money like Google Wallet (NASDAQ: GOOG) or PayPal (NASDAQ: EBAY); one Chicago area bank is officially rolling out a digital banking product just for the millennial consumer. Liberty Bank's new Smart Debit Plus account will gives users access to transfers, electronic statements and text message alerts as well as online bill pay and other money management tools. What it won't come with is checks, as paper checks will not be issues with these accounts, nor will there by a minimum monthly balance or account maintenance fess. "Since they want to do everything online, we created the account around a first-of-its kind debit card that accesses an array of largely free electronic services," says Kevin Tynan, a marketing executive at the bank, reports Payments Source. http://www.pymnts.com/news/2014/paperless-debit-used-to-lure-millennials/#.U8VRpMJOWHs

Security and Your Money: Tampa Bay Radio Host Cedric Harris Talks to NXT-ID CEO Mr. Gino Pereira about the Wocket Smart Wallet

SHELTON, Conn., July 2, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- NXT-ID, Inc., (OTCQB: NXTD) a biometric authentication company focused on the growing m-commerce market, reports that CEO Mr. Gino Pereira was interviewed on July 1st on the Downtown Dave radio show in Tampa Florida. Mr. Pereira discusses the company's next generation smart wallet with the radio host Cedric Harris and how the Wocket™ aims to replace a traditional wallet with a new sleek, secure alternative.

Cedric Harris tells Gino he has never heard of the Wocket and asks "are there other digital wallets- and if so how is the Wocket different?"

Mr. Pereira shares how the Wocket is very different from Google Wallet and other digital wallets that are basically apps that work on a smartphone. He notes that all consumers are not quite ready for this technology, having security concerns. He goes on to explain that most consumers are quite happy paying using a credit card and how the Wocket and its card will fill the gap. It addresses all of the concerns from both the consumer and the retailer, as a lot of retailers are not set up for adoption of the app technology.

Mr. Pereira also discusses in the interview that 50% of consumers surveyed are not comfortable putting their payment information on a smartphone. He explains how the Wocket's biometrically secure technology; all separate from a smartphone prevents payment and identity theft.

Host Cedric Harris declares in the interview after hearing how the Wocket works, "So I guess you can pretty much throw your old wallet away."

Downtown Dave radio show airs in Florida on WTAN 1340 AM Clearwater, WDCF 1350 AM Dade City, WZHR 1400 AM Zephyrhills, and in Arkansas on KLRG 880 AM Little Rock.

Analyst Update; NXT-ID Inc. Wocket Launches into Waiting Market

BOSTON, June 26, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- SoundView Technology Group releases the recent research update on NXT-ID Inc. (OTCQB: NXTD) (OTCBB: NXTD) and its smart wallet, Wocket™.

Recent developments following the June 11th update include the Company has filed for a NASDAQ application and appointed a new independent Board member to satisfy that requirement for listing.

Wocket Launches into Waiting Market
Kris Tuttle & Stephen Waite – June 11, 2014

Summary: The Wocket™ was officially launched on May 28th at the Plaza Hotel in NYC. All the feedback we received from attending suggests that consumers who get a chance to see and understand it, immediately want one. It's a viable way to deliver something consumers can use as a digital wallet that is secure, private, and able to handle all their payment, identification, and loyalty needs. The Wocket is really a wallet replacement, and the functional demonstration worked very well. We'll be monitoring the progress and consumer reaction very closely over the next few months with an eye to validating our IV model, which currently suggests a stock value of $11.70/share. We have also extended our forecast to arrive at a projected IV in 2015 of $20.55.

Additional Details: As a prelude to what will be a more active marketing phase, the event included attendance by the media, investors, analysts, and Miss Universe 2012, which added a special level of energy and media attention.

In addition to elaborating on the key features, there was a live demonstration of using the Wocket to do a typical transaction by swiping the card, just as one does with a standard plastic debit or credit card.

Online preorders are available with first units shipping to consumers in September at a price of $149.99, plus some optional services for customers that require additional protection.

Wocket is NXT-ID's replacement for a conventional wallet. The heart of it is the device itself which securely stores cards digitally – that covers virtually all of the important cards consumers carry in a wallet today, including credit, debit, ATM, loyalty, gift, ID, membership, insurance, medical information, and coupons. Wocket locks a user's private information in an electronic "vault" where only an authenticated owner can authorize access to the data. The case provides some space for cash and a driver's license.

As concerns continue to mount in the U.S. and around the world about identity theft and data hacking, the timing of the launch of the Wocket helps NXT-ID channel media attention into their marketing strategy. The Wocket addresses the important issues not adequately addressed currently by smart phones and other mobile devices.

The biggest advantages are in authentication and security. The Wocket uses biometric technology to provide identity protection and security. All information used with the Wocket is encrypted by the owner's personal biometric stamp. NXT-ID is a pioneer in biometric technology, and the Wocket incorporates some of the most advanced biometric technology on the market (see our report, "Mobile Security Beyond the Password", for an in depth discussion of the technology). The device protects whatever information is stored in it so that it cannot be released to any other individual or device without the user's permission.

All payment cards and other dynamic stripe cards are swiped directly into the Wocket during the initial set-up process. Barcodes and text, such as voter's registration, loyalty and/or membership cards, may all be scanned or entered into the Wocket. All information is encrypted by the owner's personal biometric stamp and can be accessed via a low power touch screen or optionally, a voice command.

Information is placed on a tamper-proof encrypted chip inside the Wocket rather than on anywhere in the cloud. Any attempt to access the encrypted chip will result in destroying any information stored on it.

If a Wocket or Wocket card is stolen, the company can guarantee that the Wocket is worthless to anyone besides its owner. The security technology incorporated by the Wocket zeroes out any relevant information on the card dynamically after each use. Hence, the card used with the Wocket becomes a blank piece of plastic to a thief. For added peace of mind, NXT-ID will be offering customers an insurance plan for stolen, misplaced, or lost Wockets.

The Wocket can securely store up to 10,000 items including – debit/credit/loyalty/gift cards, health information, coupons, and miscellaneous records.

Battery life is expected to be one year or more, depending on frequency of use. A light will appear on the device weeks before the battery is due for replacement, so users can replace the conventional lithium ion battery that is widely available at a variety of retail stores around the world.

NXT-ID has an FAQ section on the Wocket website that addresses key questions and issues associated with the device (see: http://wocketwallet.com).

NXT-ID has started taking pre-orders for the Wocket on their website, with plans to ship the first devices in September. Unlike many digital devices on the market today, the Wocket is being manufactured in America. NXT-ID is planning a significant promotional campaign this summer to increase customer awareness and drive more pre-sales.

Sales Projections and Intrinsic Valuation: Over the past year we've seen plenty of data showing that there is strong desire for a device like the Wocket. Consumers are still waiting for an actual product to buy and use. Initial sales volumes will depend on initial orders, and initially, on the ability of NXT-ID to ramp production and manage some longer lead time components.

After a review of our current projections and intrinsic valuation (IV) model, we don't see anything that needs to be changed. However, extending the projections and model out an additional year allows us to publish a 2015 IV estimate of $20.55.

Our current estimate for sales in 2014 is 40K units, which grow fast in later years to reach nearly 1M units in 2018 and 1.5M units in 2019. These unit projections are still very low considering the small penetration rate needed to generate those numbers. If the Wocket is successful, unit growth can be much faster. Many investors were surprised by how quickly new categories like the iPad reached large numbers of units after consumer adoption. We won't have any real visibility on these longer term projections until 2015, but have a credible working forecast to start with.

Although digital currencies are not the initial focus for the Wocket, we were impressed with the figures showing consumer adoption of bitcoin wallets grew from under 500K to over 5M in one year!

Conclusion: The official launch of the Wocket has certainly increased our confidence in the IV model shown below. As consumers begin to use the device in the real world, we'll know much more.

There's huge demand to use digital payments and have a secure digital wallet that is easy to use and genuinely safe. Consumers are nearly clamoring for it. Although other companies have done Kickstarter campaigns and showed slick videos, the NXT-ID Wocket will be helping to define this market in the next few months.

The stock has been holding steady after a major post-IPO run, but our IV clearly shows there is far more to go if the Wocket is delivered on time and consumers have a good experience with it.

Digital Wallets Designed for Eliminating the Need for Credit Cards - NXTD's Wocket™ Looks to Change the Way Consumers Make Credit Card Payments Worldwide

CORAL SPRINGS, Florida, May 20, 2014 /PRNewswire/ --

Smart Technology continues to evolve in the biometrics sector as advanced technologies become available for today's consumer looking for secured methods of future credit card payments: NXT-ID Inc. (OTCBB: NXTD), Apple Inc. (NASDAQ: AAPL), Yahoo! Inc. (NASDAQ: YHOO), Google Inc. (NASDAQ: GOOG) and Microsoft Corporation (NASDAQ: MSFT)

In an exclusive Q&A, Mr. Verdi discusses recent ventures including new movie deals and his investments in game-changing technologies, including Apple and biometric mobile security company NXT-ID Inc., (OTCQB: NXTD) (OTCBB: NXTD), which is currently preparing to launch its smart wallet, the Wocket™, (http://www.wocketwallet.com) with advance orders starting May 28th.

Interview Highlights with Mr. Verdi:

Question:
This past year has already seen you reach some key milestones; making movies with the best in Hollywood, like Martin Scorsese and your investment in NXTD is up over 300 percent in less than a year. What are you most excited about for the balance of this year?

A: Chad A. Verdi
Well, that's a tough one. I guess I am the most excited about NXTD right now, only because they are about to launch the Wocket™ this month. Wocket™ is a smart wallet with a re-programmable single credit card device that operates under a secured system using biometrics.

I feel it will change the way people make credit card payments worldwide. Everyone is trying to get in on this game with mobile payments, mobile wallets, mobile apps like LOOP and COIN. Everyone is trying to figure out the best way to do it. I think Wocket™ has the right approach; separate from your phone. Most people are concerned about what happens if they lose their phone or it gets stolen - what happens with all that payment info on your phone? With Wocket™, it's not a worry because after each transaction it basically goes back to a blank card. Your identity and payment info are safe!

It's great to think I originally invested in this a few years ago and now it may become the leader in the payment sector that I thought it would!

Question:
In terms of your investments, you invest in both large companies like Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL) and Yahoo (NASDAQ: YHOO) and other big tech and entertainment companies but you also take risks and invest in smaller companies with emerging technology like NXTD. Where do you see the biggest potential pay-off?

A: Chad A. Verdi
I obviously wish I would have had the opportunity to get into Apple from the beginning. I would have bet big on it, just like I have with NXTD. Companies that take a different path from what the competition is doing represent the biggest opportunity, if it works. Steve Jobs set the course for Apple, I still love the company but it's hard to know if the vision will stay intact. NXTD is still young and they are taking a revolutionary approach to payments and identity issues, very different from their competitors and I like that.
