Mobile payment users at POS in the U.S. 2027

A forecast investigating such NFC enabled payments claims the U.S. would be the world's largest market when it comes to the overall volume of such transactions. It adds that services like Apple Pay, Google Pay, and Samsung Pay would be at the heart of this development, especially in public transport networks.
