This is just another gimmick IMO. Replace "pull card out of wallet" with "unlock phone to allow transaction" and its still a 3-step process to pay for something if you have a modern credit/debit card with the tap. It doesn't eliminate the need for a wallet because you still need something to carry your IDs and such around. And really I can probably leave home without my cellphone more often than I do without my wallet, even if I don't need to have money on me. The only people I see using this are just people that want to show their phones off?

I guess I can understand with disposable cards and stuff, because I don't like carrying a ton of random cards in my wallet, but I wouldn't be listing my regular cards on this.

The Pleasure to pay Cash for almost everything is PRICELESS !

No money for me to the Credit Cards Scamers Corporations & Banks, including the Credit System that keep most of the people on a leash (Slave) & profiting by making money out of thin air (Interest).
