A young fintech of Toronto, Brim, this week became the first in Canada to offer a fully digital credit card that can be added to Apple Pay in minutes.

You have to go through the mobile application of this non-banking company affiliated with Mastercard to make the request and add with one click, if approved, the new card to your iPhone or Apple Watch. We receive, a few days later, a more classic plastic card. “It’s very convenient, that’s what consumers expected, this seamless end-to-end experience with a fully digital platform,” explains Rasha Katabi, Founder and CEO of Financière Brim. The function will be available for Google Pay “in the near future”.

MEGAMIGS 2021
PHOTO PROVIDED BY MEGAMIGS
Since the last MEGAMIGS held in person, in 2019 (our photo), the organization has held two events almost entirely online.
Unlike last year when we had to readjust in disaster, the MEGAMIGS 2021 was thought online from the start. And it shows in the gargantuan lineup of the Montreal video game high mass, which will take place from November 9 to 14. “We are fortunate in Quebec to have a healthy industry,” says Andréane Meunier, head of programming and director of technology at Eidos-Montreal. This is the opportunity to show why we are one of the major players in the industry. In addition to 70 conferences and round tables, the general public will be able to obtain free tickets to try some forty games and to rub shoulders with the craftsmen of 39 studios on a virtual platform.

Nintendo launched a new subscription at the end of October that will delight fans of retro video games, offering nine games originally released for Nintendo 64.
Fancy a trip back in time? Nintendo launched a new subscription at the end of October that will delight fans of retro video games. For $ 63.99 per year, we have access to the usual Nintendo Switch Online services – online gaming, hundreds of NES and Super NES games, cloud backups – to which we have added an “additional set”. This time, the Nintendo 64 and the SEGA Genesis are in the spotlight. We find there in particular the good old Mario kart 64, Star Fox 64, The Legend of Zelda – Ocarina of Time and Sonic The Hedgehog 2. Well, the transition to a 4K television of these ancestors is sometimes painful, but they are still insanely fun. As a bonus: an extension to Animal Crossing, New Horizons.
