Comment on Apple Pay will support NFC tags

Comments

I wonder if NFC chip implants people usually put in their hands can be rewritten to work with this. That would be pretty dope to accept payments from people just by asking them to tap your hand :)

Sure. It’s really just a url though. Nothing fancy going on: url says pay for this item and call Apple Pay.

Nice! If it's really just URL, that'll work for sure.

i mean, you can just implant it in your wallet, don't need a freaking surgery

Right, but it's not a surgery, they're implanted using syringe implanter and it's fairly easy and fast procedure.

You can use NFC to trigger the shortcuts app, so I'm sure Square cash could add the functionality into it.
