Following the launch of the bPay band last year, Barclaycard has unveiled three new wearable payment devices -- a wristband, key fob, and sticker.

Each device will use NFC contactless payment technology, which can be used to pay for transactions up to a value of £20 (rising to £30 later this year).

"We're leading the innovation that will enable everyone to pay in a convenient, flexible, and secure way."

The devices will go on sale from bPay on July 1, which will likely be before the introduction of Apple Pay later in the month.

The devices will be available to buy on the high street in August, with prices starting at £14.99 for the bPay Sticker, £19.99 for the fob, and £24.99 for the bPay Band.
