A thumb implanted microchip could be used to swipe for
purchases. The chip would be a miniature dupe of your
current bank card and have a credit limit and a PIN. Could
even use your thumb print for proper ID. No more fouled
magnetic strips or explaining that you left your wallet in
your
other
pants.
“Here, let me get that. I still have room on my thumb this
month.”

A simpler solution would be to have it glued to the
back of your thumbnail. |

Glue to back of thumb --- that would limit your credit.
When the nail grows and you have to trim it you could say
you were trimming back your budget. |

Is this contact or contactless? If contactless, where does the chip antennae go? |

evilpenguin -- my next chip will be a Bluetooth audio player
embedded in the ear canal. You adjust volume by grinding
your teeth. |

I really want to make a call making the thumb and pinky pantomime. They probably sell Bluetooth devices or something already to accomplish this but using your actual fingers really sells the act. They could even charge by wearing a inductive charging glove... |

Recently rad an article about a guy who implanted some kind of information chip in the flesh between his thumb and forefinger. |

If implanted or glued on areas beneath your clothes, it would be more protected. Also it would be an excuse to pantomime that elevator cowboy from the Gangam style video in front of the card reader, ideally with a long line of people waiting to check out behind you. |
