The only reason you have multiple cards is to display branding, a smart chip can contain multiple applications (cards) and the branding can be displayed on screen so you would only ever need one mobile phone.<BR/><BR/>Also most of the trials that have happened over the years have been partly funded by the banks and payment providers so they are already onboard; the retailers already have the systems in place, for example in the Uk the chip and pin hardware used in most shops has a place to mount the contactless reader, they just get a new piece of hardware, nothing else to change.fb4http://www.blogger.com/profile/09229926897548072241noreply@blogger.com
