A lot of us are fans of contactless payment systems now. In fact, the RBA reports that in 2019 around half of all in-person payments were made by ‘tapping’ a debit or credit card on a card terminal, part of an ongoing trend towards what some commentators predict will be a completely cashless society.

Contactless payment is not a new concept, in fact it has made life a little easier for most Australians since it was first made available here approximately thirteen years ago.
