Android/Apple Pay (using NFC) is even faster from my experience. On top of that, the merchant never gets your CC data, so it's much more secure. It's still not widespread, but I make sure to use it whenever I get the chance.
- foepys 9y agoIs this really true for Android? I know Apple hides your CC number but I'm unsure about Android.
- mohlerm 9y agoYes, it's true even for android. From: https://www.android.com/pay/ https://www.android.com/pay/ Your card info stays safe When you use your phone to pay in stores, Android Pay doesn’t send your actual credit or debit card number with your payment. Instead we use a virtual account number to represent your account info – so your card details stay safe and secure.
- majewsky 9y ago> virtual account number So, just as trackable as a credit card number. Or are virtual account numbers unique per transaction?
- smcgaw 9y agoI believe Apple Pay works the same in this respect so the virtual account number is not cycled per transaction. I can't remember if it's cycled per vendor or just unique per device.
