Abstract
Provided is an apparatus and method for effecting secure transactions in a contactless manner using biometric identity validation. The apparatus may include, for example, a biometric sensor that is operable to detect biometric information associated with a user of the apparatus. A processor that is accessible to the biometric sensor may be used to process the biometric information to verify the identity of the user. One or more antennae may also form part of the apparatus and may perform multiple functions. For example, the antennae may provide contactless communication with an external device and may also provide receive power from an external power source to power the device.
