1. A secure finger sensing contactless card comprising:
a card body;
a near field communication device that is adapted to provide a wireless radio wave connection between said card body and a point-of-sale device; and
a finger sensing surface affixed or formed on said card body, said finger sensing surface having a pair of spaced-apart conductive poles or capacitive surfaces that activates said near field communication device by completing a circuit between the pair of spaced-apart conductive poles or capacitive surfaces by a touch of a human finger therebetween, the pair of spaced-apart conductive poles or capacitive surfaces not actuating the near field communication device or completing the circuit upon an absence of touch by the human finger.
