Vodafone partners with Visa, Carta Worldwide for contactless m-payments | Payments Ecosystem | Scoop.it
Following new agreements with Visa and Carta Worldwide, bank card payments via Vodafone Wallet will be enabled in European markets from the second quarter of 2015 onward.

Customers will help unlock the larger questions in NFC SIM: 1. trust and prefer a MNO driven wallet for retail transactions; or 2. Trust your current banking partner wallet to drive retail transactions, extend the existing card brand driven wallet to be used for NFC transactions??
