Trial by U.S.-based reader and m-wallet supplier Vivotech with defunct payment company Payzy allowed users to buy movie tickets, karaoke sessions and other tickets at entertainment complex along with food and beverage, using Payzy’s contactless prepaid e-purse.
NFC Times Take:
Netherlands-based Payzy, which also participated in a pair of difficult NFC payment trials in Shanghai and Beijing, had had big plans for its e-purse and NFC technology. Apparently, however, its investors did not want to wait and the company shut down in early 2009.
