The new mobile wallet smartphone app from O2 offers a wealth of payment options to users — but not NFC compatibility, Finextra reports.
P2P payments, barcode searches for online price comparison shopping, daily discounts from major retailers, debit card and cash onboarding, and a preloaded Visa prepaid card are the features Finextra says are available with O2’s new app today. As for NFC, the outlet says that capability is on its way “soon.”
NFC World suggests eventual NFC capability could be launched in conjunction with Project Oscar, the Isis-like European joint venture that was recently delayed by an in-depth inquiry from the European Commission.
