Nightclub 'chips' punters

A Spanish nightclub is giving guests the chance to pay for drinks and admission using a tiny microchip implanted under the skin.


By waving the part of the body containing the chip over a scanner, money is automatically deducted from their bank accounts.


The 'VeriChip', a Radio Frequency Identification chip made by a US company, will mean regular clubbers at the Baja Beach Club in Barcelona will no longer have to wait in queue to pay to get in.
