Fidesmo is a technology startup building a platform to distribute contactless services to devices having secure chips. We want users to be able to have all their tickets, keys, payment credentials, and loyalty cards on the device they have selected, be it a smart watch, a bracelet or a card.

A growing number of service providers already offer their services through the Fidesmo platform: payment cards, access control, bitcoin management, IT security, event ticketing and car sharing, plus several more that are currently evaluating the solution.

Finally, Fidesmo has produced its own device, the Fidesmo Card, and discussions are ongoing with manufacturers of wearable devices, chip implants and Bluetooth modules. These wearable companies include a Fidesmo enabled Secure Element into their devices. Fidesmo is backed by a number of high-profile investors.
