Trial
Status:
Completed
Small internal trial tested JCB’s international contactless application J/Speedy, which is not accepted in Japan.
NFC Times Take:
For some reason, Japanese payment brand JCB wanted another test of its international contactless application J/Speedy following its 2006 trial in Amsterdam. JCB’s QUICPay application is for domestic consumption in Japan’s hypercompetitive contactless-payment market.
