One credit card for everything!?


Now this is a must-have tool, maybe a toy, no, a tool. It is called the iCache. It combines all of your credit cards into one safe and secure device. It handles credit cards, debit bank cards, loyalty cards. It looks like it will work with anything that has a magnetic strip on it. You go to the iCache website and upload the information on all your cards. When you’re out and about, you can just pull out the iCache and scan your fingerprint on the device to activate it, from the built-in screen, choose from your list of cards. iCache then will spit out a single-use card with that card’s information on it for you to swipe at the checkout. When you are done, slide the card back into the iCache. The card is erased completely and made available for it’s next use. At only $99 it is worth waiting for it to come out next year.

    Wow!! ‘n now anyone who is having a loots of cards can use this portable gadget with a low price.

  5. $99? I guess that’s cheap enough. I think my mother would love this gadget. She has tons of credit cards! Me? I only have one credit card so I don’t need this anymore.

  6. It’s a great idea, but after some much thought consideration I’d be a bit worried about uploading my personal information to any site, whether they promise it be secure or not.

    The fact is, a site can be 100% secure and still have a rogue employee or someone who really wants to hack the site.

    And, what if the service is down, how do you get access to your cards?

  7. When it comes to devices like this, I’m always a skeptic. No site is 100% secure, as long as it’s connected to the internet it can be hacked. This device brings up other problems, such as that a hardware hacker could figure out a way to make a fake website to talk to the device, to put stolen credit card info onto it. And I like having separate cards, me having my card in my hand is more secure than having on some foreign website. With some work, this could be a great product.

  8. hmm, interesting credit card, but $99 is cheap according to me…

  9. It appears that this device is still not ready for the market yet. I will keep you up to date when I know anything or have an update. They promise that it will be out at the ned of the year with certain carriers.

  10. I think $99 is ok for that type of things, Its nice device for storing all cards.
