NFC payment options are gaining widespread acceptance, in which the payment option mode is starting to gain momentum in the North American region. Sure enough, Intel has been eyeing for a piece of the NFC pie for quite some time now, and they have further solidified their intention recently, by entering into a licensing deal with Inside Secure for the use of their NFC tech.
Apparently, Intel showed off their Medfield-powered tablet at IDF earlier, in which the tablet is equipped with the NFC module, which grants the tablet the ability to process payments via MasterCard. Intel wants to incorporate the NFC tech in their future Ultrabooks, which enables these notebooks PayPass checkouts in the future. Well, it’s safe to say that future Ultrabooks by Intel would definitely uncannily include the NFC module onboard.
