These chips are programmed to work alongside your smartphones. All data transfer happens through your mobile device, with the exception that the money remains on the chips. He also advises against using this as a replacement credit card. The chips are available to be bought online at $99 dollars along with the syringe to implant them, sold by the Dangerous Things company. “It’s really not recommended to do this yourself, you should find a specialist if you want to avoid infections,” Wismeijer said.
