  1. Die Ankündigung von neulich schon wieder vergessen und heute positiv überrascht bei #Walmart das Contactless Logo für #TaptoPay gesehen.

    Leider nicht bei nem Self-Checkout gewesen und daher nicht herausfinden können ob sie contactless mit contact verlinkt haben (da hätte ich dann auch bei contactless die Kassenbeleg-per-SMS Option erwartet). Online taucht der Einkauf jedenfalls noch(?) nicht auf.

  2. Ah, just as I was just asking for solutions to exit Google Pay, today I learned that a privacy oriented tap to pay app is coming. Will be keeping an eye on Walt.

  13. Wife was outside, enjoying the weather. She comes into the house to announce, "I think I just heard #MisterSoftee."

    My dog is sitting calmly next to me, so I
    know he hadn't heard the truck. He goes nuts when he hears the Mister Softee music (even if it's just on TV). I respond back, "are you sure it wasn't another truck's music?" That it's also Thursday rather than his more-normal Friday further enhanced my doubt. She responded that she was sure, just that it was very faint and that dog probably didn't hear it over my fan and my music.

    A few minutes later, I hear the door open, again. Wife is walking towards me. Just as she starts to say, "he's pulling up," my dog is running towards my work-desk, yipping the whole way. He pokes me with his cold nose to get my complete attention.

    I get up, grab my phone (yay,
    #TapToPay!), and head to the front door. My dog is fast at my heals. I have to tell him to calm down and to sit before I feel comfortable opening the door. I don't think he'd bolt, but not worth the risk. Dog "sitting" — wiggling from the excitement — I open the door and head out.

    I get down to the truck and the
    #IceCream man has two #PupCups already waiting. I order a scoop of chocolate to share with my wife and chit-chat with the driver. Mostly, relating to him about how my dog let me know he was rolling up.

    Walk back inside and deposit the shared-scoop in the fridge and hand wife a pup-cup to give to her dog. I have my dog lie down — he's frantically wiggling and barely able to lay down from the excitement. Once he's somewhat settled, I present his pup-cup to him. To his credit, he stays laid down. As he's licking out of the cup, his tail is fluttering in time with his tongue.

  17. My growing retired-transit-card collection

    A year ago, this week’s work trip to the Bay Area would have meant breaking out the oldest computer that I was still using with any regularity at the time: the Clipper card that I bought in June of 2012 to pay for fares on BART, Muni and other transit agencies around San Francisco.

    But this year, I could leave that NFC-enabled smart card in the little holder in which I store my other stored-value transit cards and instead tap my phone to pay with my business credit card for each ride–first a SamTrans bus from SFO to Millbrae, then Caltrain to San Jose for TechEx North America, then two days of commuting up and down the peninsula for Google I/O.

    BART started accepting contactless payments last August, and now all the Bay Area transit services that accept Clipper cards also let you tap to pay with a phone, a smartwatch or a credit or debit card with an NFC chip.

    Whether you call it “tap to pay,” “open payments” or “open loop,” letting people pay for a fare as if it were any other on-the-go purchase is a great advance for transit. Especially for out-of-towners, as I realized years ago when visiting Chicago and Portland and appreciating the early lead of their transit services in this key bit of CX.

    A growing array of agencies across the U.S. have finally wised up to this after years of requiring people to buy proprietary stored-value cards, install agency-specific apps or make a throwback cash payment: Metro, NYC’s MTA, the T in Boston, NJ Transit buses and light rail, SEPTA around Philadelphia, MARTA in Atlanta, and the Seattle region’s Sound Transit, among many others.

    L.A.’s Metro has been a high-profile laggard–a personally inconvenient one since my TAP card expired last year. But this week users have begun reporting success on Reddit and in Bluesky posts with using their phones and credit cards to cover train and bus fares now that Metro there seems to have begun a soft launch of what it calls “TAP Plus.”

    As I’ve spent down the balance on transit cards I no longer need, the ones that I still need to use are now most entirely confined to agencies in other countries. Some examples: I love Barcelona’s Metro but I don’t love how it doesn’t support tap to pay; Doha’s driverless metro is a technological marvel but also requires its own colorful card; Vancouver’s Compass Card offers enough of a discount over tap-to-pay rates (because that city didn’t follow Toronto’s fare-neutral example) that I picked up one for last year’s Web Summit conference there and used it again for this year’s event.

    But there is one awkward exception right in my neighborhood: Arlington Transit, which continues to require the SmarTrip card that WMATA rolled out in 1999. So while I can pay for Metro like it’s the 21st century, I still have to keep my well-worn SmarTrip card handy in case an ART bus rolls up before a Metro bus does.
