SmartMetric, Inc. (OTCQB: SMME) SmartMetric is suing both giant payment card
companies, Visa Inc. and MasterCard International for Patent infringement
involving the use of EMV cards in the United States.


The SmartMetric patent infringement law suit against the payment cards companies
was filed over 3 years ago with a hearing now scheduled in the Federal Circuit
Court for August 8th, 2014.


In its motions before the court SmartMetric is asking the court to find that
Visa Inc. and MasterCard International are infringing the SmartMetric patent and
that SmartMetric should be awarded a percentage of the economic benefit and
value that flows from using the SmartMetric claimed and patented technology. The
amount calculated by SmartMetric in earlier court filings is $13.4 Billion. 


The SmartMetric makes fingerprint activated credit and debit cards that use
biometrics to defend consumers and banks alike from fraud. The company has added
a fingerprint scanner built inside EMV payment credit and debit chip cards and
uses a person's fingerprint stored inside the card to activate the cards chip
following a scan and match on the card. Thereby creating a second secure layer
biometric authentication protection in defending against card fraud. The company
is now actively marketing its technology to card issuing financial institutions
around the World.
