A DAD is the first Brit to get microchipped with a bank card implant — letting him pay with just his hand.

Arnie Szoke, 40, forked out £350 to have the op in Germany.

The NHS healthcare assistant said cashiers and other shoppers have been stunned.

He added: “People ask how I can pay with my hand.

"The implant looks cool, but my wife would never have one.”

The chip uses contactless card technology, with ­magnetic fields transferring data to readers.
