The US is very slow to adopt these kind of payment changes. I'd say I make about half of my CC purchases in Canada right now contactless.

Places like Latin America aren't even thinking about changing cards (heck, we're still adopting the old magnetic cards in most stores!). What'll happen when I visit Canada with my card in one or two years? Will those still be accepted?
