Abstract

See full text

A system and method for maintaining authentication of a user of a wearable device. The wearable device can include an electrical circuit, an accelerometer, a capacitive sensor, or other wearable detection module that can determine that the wearable device has been in continuous contact with, or continuous use by, the wearer. A first payment transaction can be initiated between the wearable device and a first payment terminal. A user credential is then received at either the wearable device or a mobile device coupled to the wearable device. The user credential is verified and the first payment transaction is authorized. A second payment transaction is then initiated between the wearable device and a second payment terminal. If the wearable device is determined to have been in continuous use by the user, then the second payment transaction can be completed without requiring re-authentication of the user.
