Monopoly will swap paper cash for debit cards in the latest version of the game. The cards can be ‘scanned’ with iOS devices letting players use their phones as a virtual bank teller. DVICE reports that the fake debit cards are made with conductive paint technology, so that when tapped on an iOS device to perform a transaction, the iPhone/iPad detects it, and money is automatically added and subtracted from the player’s fake account.
