Apple is turning iPhones into payment terminals

Apple Inc is planning a new service that will let small businesses accept payments directly on their iPhones without any extra hardware, according to people with knowledge of the matter.

Using Nedbank sounds even worse than using Android.

Nope, tap on phone doesn't work on iOS.
