For most people, paying for something often follows the same choreography: find the phone, unlock it, open the wallet, tap. But today, Inter is changing that. Inter announced the U.S. launch of its wearable technology line, the Inter Ring and Inter Wristband, bringing contactless payment capability through industry-standard security technology to accessories customers already wear, without requiring a screen, battery, or a phone in hand.
This launch will be the latest example of Inter always optimizing for the customer. Through this expanded product offering, the financial technology company will take its services from a financial platform into an accessible lifestyle, granting customers access to Inter's universe of customer experiences.
The Inter Ring will be available in gold, silver, rose, black, and gray. The Inter Wristband, adjustable and built for daily use, will come in black, orange, and white. Both run on passive NFC technology, making them water-resistant, battery-free, and activated once through the Inter App.
"Wearables embody a core trait in Inter's DNA: innovating to simplify people's lives through technology, convenience, and security. With these devices, we want to make every experience more efficient — whether that's the time saved at checkout or the peace of mind that comes with knowing your payments are protected through industry-standard security measures. Practicality is a lifestyle, and it makes a real difference in people's daily lives," says Rodrigo Gouveia, Executive Director of E-Commerce and Ecosystems at Inter.
Payments made through the Inter Ring or Wristband will serve as an extension of the customer's existing Inter credit card, sharing the same limit and due date, with purchases from all three surfaces appearing on a single statement. Transactions will use tokenization and encryption consistent with contactless payment standards; certain purchases may require a PIN. If a wearable is lost or stolen, customers can disable or remove it in the Inter App.
Wearables will be initially available to a limited group of select Inter customers, with a broader rollout coming later in 2026. Terms, conditions, and merchant acceptance apply.
