What convenience does a digital wallet add that a card cannot do
Be part of phone. People don’t like cash cuz you have to lug it around. People are dropping cards for digi wallet because then they don’t have to lug card around.
isn’t a digital wallet way less safer given that mobile platforms are the least secure ?
If my card would be stolen, the thief could pay some amount without entering the pin on a contactless terminal. On the phone you can’t pay without touching the fingerprint reader, so it’s more secure from at least this common atttack vector
