Visa Inc., Visa Europe and Google today announced that Google has received a worldwide license to Visa "payWave," a payment technology based on near field communications. Visa payWave enables consumers to make fast and secure payments at retail locations by waving their mobile phone in front of a payment terminal and is currently accepted at hundreds of thousands of retail locations worldwide.
The agreement allows Visa-issuing banks worldwide to enable Visa account holders to add their credit, debit and prepaid accounts to Google Wallet, a mobile application that turns a smart phone into a digital wallet.
