Summary

Cash App has launched Cash App Tags, a new line of NFC-enabled payment accessories linked to the Cash App Card. The first product is the Cash App Wand, a $25 sparkly wand that lets users tap to pay at any Visa tap-to-pay terminal. It's being released in a limited run and requires an active Cash App Card. The article frames the product as a playful, theatrical take on contactless payments that will likely be popular despite (or because of) its silliness.

The first one isn't a subtle bracelet or sleek belt buckle — it's called the Cash App Wand.
It's only being released in a limited run for now, and you'll need an active Cash App Card to use it.
