Crazy Tech gadgets – the most innovative last minute Christmas gift ideas

Those days are over when people bought bonbons and warm socks for each other. Why not get your family and friends something unique that will materially improve their lives? Check out some fintech gift ideas – and of course, stay cashless, use contactless!

1. Cryptocurrency wallet

For those who are into cryptocurrencies, a physical wallet that could protect their funds against theft may be a suitable gift. A hardware wallet is a special type of bitcoin wallet which stores the user’s private keys in a secure hardware device. A cryptocurrency wallet features a screen and buttons required to confirm the transaction performed with the cryptocurrency. It has special security technology that protects users. If the wallet is lost, after three attempts to enter the PIN code all data on the device is automatically deleted.

 

2. For the frequent overspender

Here’s one fintech gift with shock value — literally. Pavlok is a device that gives wearers a mild electric stimulus when they’re spending too much. The goal behind Pavlok is to help wearers eliminate their bad habits using customizable algorithmic settings.

This also means that financials aren’t the only habits the wristband can improve upon, but it helps to avoid oversleeping, hanging out too much on social media websites, etc. Who wouldn’t want to receive a mild electric shock when going on a shopping spree, or start the day with jumping jacks instead of snoozing the alarm and going back to sleep…? Well, maybe not all of us, yet it’s an as crazy as it sounds gift idea, we love it

 

3. Augmented writing tool

For most of us communicating ideas well is a constant struggle, and we usually rely on a lot of hope. What if you could know   in advance  how other people would react to your words?

Textio is an augmented writing platform, giving you the superpower of knowing how well your words will work while you’re still writing them.

Fueled by massive quantities of data, contributed by companies across industries and around the world, Textio’s predictive engine uses this data to uncover meaningful patterns in language, guiding you to stronger communication and better business outcomes.

4. Tickets for a cashless festival 

When someone is working or studying hard all year round, it’s always important to take a break. And what could be better than visiting a safe, cashless and professionally managed summer festival?
