For
decades, we have been using our credit and debit
cards all over the world. The system put in
place by Visa, MasterCard, American Express
and others is so ubiquitous and convenient that
we don’t even think about it. We just
know it will work and that we are protected.
Now,
we have all heard about Identity Theft and fraudulent
transactions. Is the system that safe? What
to expect with new technologies like contactless
in a card or even in a cell phone? How long
will it take to reach our pockets and how do
we stay protected with these new payment means?
