it's an american solution to an american problem

part of the issue is that the us had the alternative infrastructure in place earlier, like, i could use my debit card as a credit card with signing in the 90s. this isn't an excuse for not updating things obvs but i also sort of get not wanting to roll out completely new infrastructure a decade later

it is a genuinely interesting phenomena how beloved apple pay is in the places where the cards didn't already do the same thing

obviously it is better, as there's an extra level of auth to it, but that extra level of auth makes it obviously less convenient than the card here

not sure i agree, i see it used a lot in canada where the cards have had nfc for years

might be even more local then. here it was a kind of close call as cards had nfc for a long time, but raising the limit before you need a pin happened just as the various phone payment systems could have taken hold.

i know here covid had a lot to do with raising the limits on purchases before a pin was required

you can’t turn off the notifications that tell you to
update your apps and your operating system 🙄:rolleyes::argh:
