Wearable tech company Oura has hinted at the possibility of its next device offering contactless payments. In a blog post published on May 9, CEO Tom Hale announced the acquisition of Proxy, a company that offers contactless payment and security services. Hale stated that the acquisition would enable Oura to expand its reach into areas including security, identity, payments, and access. The mention of payments has led to speculation that the Oura Ring 4 could feature a wallet service that would allow users to save their cards in-app and use them with the ring, or to access payment features via Google Wallet or Apple Pay.
