e-Currency refers to Smart Card which enables various types of information to be stored.
In case e-Currency which is used in subway, bus, and stores is lost, there is a great possibility that individuals get huge damage because it doesn't have a feature to verify users.

However, this card containing fingerprint verification functionality boasts of perfect security.
If a cardholder's fingerprint matches the fingerprint stored on the card, this card can be used.

This fingerprint verification card was developed by high technology that the US-based e-Smart Technologies, Inc. created. And it decided to market it with Mybi Co, Ltd. (e-Currency operating company in Busan, Korea)
