Google Wallet (NFC) (Nick)

Google Wallet is a service that  has been around for a little over two years and is making digital payments easier and is very secure.  This is making it very easy for you to no longer carry your wallet around all you need is something that you always carry around with you, your cell phone.  How does it work you might ask?  One of two ways, online Google wallet stores all of your credit card or bank account information so you do not have to enter it in every time.  As for in stores you use your cell phone to pay for items by using NFC(Near Field Communication) which will be later discussed.  It is very secure and it is almost like Pay Pass by Exxon Mobile.  Not all cell phones have it but in the near future all cell phones will be equipped with NFC.  As for NFC(Near Field Communication) it is a radio transmission for communication between two devices in this case your cell phone and the terminal in which you are paying.  This is just one digital payment that we believe over the future will make cash useless.  What do you think?  If you could would you like to only be responsible for you cell phone and not your wallet?
