I don't know. I live in a city in Europe.
I get my wallet out, put it close to the ticket reader in any metro station, bus, tramway or trolley in the city, and it works just as flawlessly.
The only difference is between a wallet and a watch, which is a very tiny difference, IMO.
- Faaak 4y agoI'd say one of the main differences is that some NFC cards don't have anti-collision features and won't work next to other NFC cards. Thus, when you have your travel pass + credit card + ID card (mine is NFC), it doesn't work and you have to take it out. Hopefully, in Switzerland you don't need to tap/read a ticket before boarding any public transport, so it makes it a bit easier
- zamnos 4y agoGiven how cold it gets in the winter (around or below freezing) in various parts of Europe, getting a wallet with anti-RFID lining and a compartment outside of that, a purse or bag with a pocket on the bottom or side, or gloves with a pocket on the back of it, or this watch thing, or really anything that lets you run your travel card without having to take off your gloves is well worth the cost.
- rockbruno 4y agoMaybe it's because I'm really lazy, but the wallet vs watch thing makes a huge difference for me. I hate having to pick up my phone or wallet from my pockets, being able to pay from my Apple Watch is such a game changer that it became the only reason I even have one.
