Deloitte says 2015 will be tipping point for in-store mobile payments

This year will mark the tipping point for in-store mobile payments. That is one of the predictions made in Deloitte’s 2015 Canadian Technology, Media & Telecommunications Predictions report, which was released this week. In 2015, near-field communication-enabled smartphone in-store payments will gain momentum on a global basis, and reach Canada by year's end, the report said. Additionally, the smartphone upgrade market will see continued growth. The 14th annual Deloitte report features 10 Canadian trends expected over the coming months in the technology, media and telecommunications industry.
