Educating on Mobile and Contactless Payments Requirements and Interactions
The U.S. Payments Forum has also released a new white paper, “Mobile and Contactless Payments Requirements and Interactions,” which describes how mobile and contactless payments requirements are collected from mobile and contactless payments ecosystem stakeholders. Through this resource, developed by the Mobile and Contactless Working Committee, the Forum aims to garner cross-industry understanding of mobile and contactless payments requirements and best practices and encourage standardization to meet common requirements.
