Hungary Concludes Year-Long NFC Trial, Prepares for Commercial Launches

As the Hungarian Mobile Wallet Association prepares to enable its members to commercially launch NFC mobile payments, it has released the results of its 12-month NFC payments and loyalty pilot along with a survey of users.

Telcos and others in the association plan commercial launches by the end of the year, though there are no official launch dates set yet, a spokeswoman for the association told NFC Times.

“While in the pilot, we used a common TSM platform, in the commercial phase players will use a different infrastructure, so we need a few months for the new integrations, which are on track at the moment,” she said.
