Targetes financeres o mòbils realment intel·ligents

Potser en un futur haurem de parlar de diner digital, quan utilitzem els mòbils per pagar i comprar en comptes de les targetes financeres.

 

If this was just a more convenient way of paying, the banks would probably shrug. But it also promises to overturn your existing financial relationships. Instead of reaching for the first card that happens to be in your wallet to pay for a $2 cup of coffee (and risk being charged a $35 penalty by your bank for exceeding your overdraft limit), your phone will choose the best method of payment. Credit cards with the highest rates of interest, or the meanest rewards schemes, will be shunted to the back of this smart wallet. Repayments will automatically be channelled to pay off the most expensive loans first. Penalty fees for inadvertent overdrafts will become things of the past.
