How the Next iPhone Could Finally Kill the Credit Card

[MuseRider]

14. My Samsung does that now with an app BUT

I stopped using that when I found out there was a $2.00 charge each time I did. It was very convenient and done through American Express. Program was called ISIS, now SoftCard, and I tried it. You can put in all your cards (I did not) and you have to put the money in so I put in a tiny bit and used it up and then decided it was too risky. THEN I found out about the $2.00, a fee that was mentioned somewhere in that huge list of things I scanned over like a dope and did not read very well. Enough of that.

At least if you did not keep your other card info on it all that a person who stole your phone could get was the little money (or a lot if you chose to add a lot) in that one particular account if they could break your password.

Still, not worth it. I am not THAT busy nor do I use a card that often to actually need this.

Apple should maybe rethink this, especially after the cloud hacks.
