NFC payment RFID

[NateAnderson]

I’m new to all this but do you think that VivoKey spark too will be able to do payments as a Subscription later on??? Or would I have to get the Apex one Entirely.

The other apps will work ok and Vivokey is developing more. If visa/mastercard change their minds then all Apexes will be able to pay (no expiration) just like fidesmo products. But this is unlikely so don’t make a purcase if that’s the o…
