 Car IQ offers a contactless in-car payment solution called &ldquo;Car IQ Pay&rdquo; for vehicles and fleets. Its platform enables vehicles to autonomously initiate, validate, and complete payments for services such as tolls, fueling, parking, etc. without the need for debit/credit cards or additional hardware. The payment is done via its patent-pending &ldquo;Know Your Machine (KYM)&rdquo; technology&mdash;a machine identity verification process that allows vehicles and machines to connect directly to payment networks/banks, physical infrastructure, and mobility platforms. KYM is accepted by a number of payment networks and is reportedly the first machine payment network that uniquely authenticates vehicles, facilitating direct vehicle-initiated transactions. Car IQ Pay is claimed to be the first in-car payment solution for vehicles and fleets.
