European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI) has just decided on the final piece of what will become Europe’s NFC standard.
Some issues about communication between the NFC circuitry and the phone’s SIM seemed to be the reason for some delay.
The GSMA says it’ll enable “mobile operators to prepare for the rollout of contactless payment services and other applications that make use of this flexible short-range radio technology”.
For sure, standardization will help in what has been GSMA’s aim: contactless payments to be the morn more than the exception.
