Plastic money may allow fast and safe transaction, but it creates a problem when connections are bad or non-existent, as plastic cards do not contain money themselves. As we have entered the digital era, we need some reliable and easily accessible alternate to ensure safe and speedy business deals. Providing a solution, Swedish designer Fredrik Palmblad has come up with a digital device dubbed the “Digital Wallet” that holds money itself, ensuring safe and quick money transaction anytime, anywhere. The users need to connect two devices to transfer the digital money from one account to another.

The LED-stripe lights up the amount to confirm the successful transfer. The Digital Wallet provides a secure and simple way to accomplish personal transactions in real-time.
