The new tool is not dependant on NFC, but
will allow consumers to use their smartphones for online shopping
in-store, the company said.
According to FIS, its mobile wallet neither
discloses payment credentials to the POS device nor stores them on
the smartphone.
The new solution not only targets
retailers, but also financial institutions, in an attempt to bring
together mobile payments and mobile banking.
FIS’s wallet can be built into retailers’
and financial institutions’ existing mobile platforms, enabling
banks to own the customer relationships.

are not comfortable ceding their brand equity, customer
