Contactless smart cards

Contactless smart card technology is being employed successfully in many areas. For instance:

Retailers are using contactless smart card payments to increase basket size and cut queues
Transport operators are using contactless smart cards (ITSO, Oyster etc) to streamline backend processes and improve the customer experience
Event and venue operators are using RFID wristbands and bracelets for effective and secure ticketing and access control

Near field communication (NFC) and mobile payments

When it comes to driving the market for mobile payments and ticketing, mobile phone technology near field communications (NFC) could be the answer. And as NFC does not need special point-of-sale contactless readers, NFC can be seamlessly integrated with the existing contactless infrastructure. But with mass market adoption a few years away, what should you do now?
