From the "Google" has reached new applications based on NFC technology, which allows mobile phone services and pay bills. The so-called "Google Wallet" works by wireless technology for transmitting data from the device in the immediate vicinity, about ten centimeters. Through this application it is sufficient to bring the phone browser, without contact, or pulling the card, the account will be paid.

For now this feature is only available in the U.S. and for customers, "MasterCard" card. It is expected that users of these services will be available in various payment discounts. What is also an advantage is that if your phone is lost, at least as far as finances, it will be less "painful" than losing a real wallet, because if you pay by phone is necessary to know the PIN code, and have the option to delete credit card information if the phone is stolen.
