Our Technology
Radio Frequency Energy Harvesting
Freevolt’s radio frequency energy harvesting technology is capable of using existing RF sources, such as Point-of-Sale (POS) terminals, in order to combat card fraud by unlocking additional power to drive biometrics, Dynamic CVV, and other enhanced security measures.
Generating higher power, enabling greater functionality
No regulatory or infrastructure changes - works with existing card technologies
Enables better security and UX/speed
Fits into existing card footprint and thickness
Uses off-the-shelf components
No recharging or changing batteries: it works whenever you position it next to a card machine
Proprietary technology with multiple patents filed/granted
More Power = More Security
Our Solution
Freevolt Smart Access
Biometric enabled access control card (no more PINs)
Biometrically linked card: only named individual can gain access
Fingerprint data encrypted and stored on the card (never leaves the card)
Enables contactless two-factor authentication (2FA) - important in context of COVID-19 pandemic
Works with existing access control systems (low maintenance, scalable, easy to update)
About Us
Freevolt is a global award-winning suite of proprietary, patented and patent pending technologies that recycle and harvest RF energy from radio transmission networks (NFC, cellular, Wi-Fi, etc.) in order to power electrical devices such as smart cards, sensors, and wearables. Smart Cards is its first commercial application.
Freevolt’s mission in the smart card space is to enable fraud protection and improved security without any impact on existing infrastructure or user experience.
Freevolt is based in London, UK with a team of international engineers bringing a wealth of experience in RF energy harvesting and associated power and control technologies, from a variety of industries.
Awards and Recognition
"Freevolt’s true benefit lies in its ability to deliver power when the card is misaligned or operating at distance from the reader. Currently, we have seen no other solution on the market that is able to deliver this consistency in performance when not fully aligned with the reader"
