Hi team,

I also posted on Reddit /r/RFID in the hope someone could ID this but I have yet to receive a reply.

Found this in a parking lot yesterday. I know that's an EMV chip but don't know what it is for if it's not RFID as well.

Any ideas? Keen to find it's owner.

It is a laundromat payment "key" (easykey).

They are not registered or anything but you could hand it into your local laundromat or shop next to one or just use it yourself. I'd say it'll be nearly impossible to find the owner.

Thanks, that explains it. There are two laundromats around the corner.
