Turkey host first mobile NFC payment programme

Date: 05/08/2010

Turkey also hosted one of the first mobile NFC payment programmes, in which consumers can convert their mobile phone for NFC payments via a simple SIM card attached to an antenna (Beavertail NFC).

Without having to change their phones, users can already benefit from almost 30,000 ‘tap&go™’ terminals in Turkey (and 245,000 terminals around the world) for transportation, football and cinema tickets and fast food.
