Lenovo bringing contactless payments to certain NFC-enabled ThinkPads in 2013
In SoMeIT (Social Media Information Technology), we are fully dedicated to satisfying all of your web needs, integrating your business to social networks.
Select ThinkPad owners may be making online purchases simply by tapping a compatible credit card to an embedded NFC reader before 2013 is through. Lenovo reps confirmed that the tech would be coming to a yet-to-be-announced array of NFC-enabled ThinkPad tablets or Ultrabooks sometime this year — processing partnerships are still in the works, so we don’t have any details to share there, but if all goes to plan, you could be submitting your card details securely and with ease very soon. The company shared the news during today’s Expand conference in San Francisco, shortly after unveiling two new ThinkPad models, including the T431s Ultrabook. Lenovo hasn’t confirmed whether that model will offer tap-to-pay support, too, but we certainly wouldn’t rule it out. We’ve seen contactless payments in plenty of smartphones, of course, but widespread tablet and laptop implementation has yet to arrive.
