I guess it's faster because you always have your phone in your hand, avoiding human interaction.

i thought the credit card rfid think was dumb until i learned that it's way more secure, it's a one time code that can't be reused like magstripe data also that currentc thing isn't backed by the credit card companies, it's the exact opposite. it's backed by all the retailers who want to avoid paying credit card fees by withdrawing money directly from your bank account check out this guy's posts if you want the long version http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3675514&userid=100577

http://venturebeat.com/2015/01/08/uber-well-guarantee-driver-earnings-in-every-city-where-were-cutting-prices/quote:In a blog post today, Uber said it will be cutting its fares this winter in 48 of its most recently added cities in order to lure more users to the service. of course anyone who's paid attention to any deal uber has ever offered drivers knows to start asking questions about what exactly that "guarantee" entails, since uber always attaches conditions designed to screw the drivers quote:Update: Uber has given a few more details. According to an email from a spokesperson, in order to get the earnings guarantee, drivers: quote:This time, Uber is so confident that the cuts will result in more rides taken, and therefore more money for drivers, that it’s guaranteeing driver earnings. there it is! a guarantee based on "average driver earnings" is guaranteed to screw over the full-time jitney contractors stupid enough to rely entirely on uber for income, because the averages are dragged down by casual uber drivers just doing it for fun or something, so the amount they're being guaranteed is probably significantly less than they were making before. and those casual drivers are going to be ineligible for the guarantee a lot of the time since they're not devoting several hours at a time to driving. so as usual, uber makes more money and the drivers make less

As a Millennial I posted:i thought the credit card rfid think was dumb until i learned that it's way more secure, it's a one time code that can't be reused like magstripe data wait how does it actually work? i suppose the terminal sends some timestamped data to the card which signs it and sends it back? i mean it cant have too much logic in there, that requires power, so i guess i always assumed that it just sent a card id but that would be hella easy to clone wikipedia is worthless
