Mobile operators in Europe have agreed to create a single, shared logo that will allow users to instantly spot where they can use their contactless cards and phones to make purchases. Telefonica 02, Vodafone, Deutsche Telecom, Telecom Italia and France Telecom Orange are to create the new logo, which they hope will drive usage of the technology up.
The NFC Forum has already created the 'n-mark' for this purpose but the operators feel that this doesn't have a strong enough visual presence. Nick Wilikin from O2 said:
"This is something we all think is necessary. It's very much in the discussion stage at the moment, but we all agree it's something we should have."
