This week, on ReadWriteWeb, we reported on a survey run by MasterCard, which found that 63% of the younger generation was ready and eager for NFC (near field communication) and mobile payments. According to the survey results, those aged 18-34 are comfortable with the idea of using their phone for purchases, as compared with older generation (35+). Of course, MasterCard’s survey was designed to ensure a reliable and accurate sampling of the U.S. population…which makes us wonder: how much higher would this percentage be if you just asked early adopters the same question? Want to find out? Play along with us by sharing your thoughts in this week’s ReadWriteMobile poll.
How do we know you’re an early adopter? Well, you’re reading ReadWriteWeb, of course! This blog reaches a smart and savvy audience, our analytics show, and often includes those who have significant input or even the final say in technology purchase decisions.
So how do forward-thinkers like you feel about NFC? Are you even more embracing of the technology? Or, perhaps, because of your knowledge of the challenges ahead, are you more cautious?
Let us know if you’re ready for NFC and mobile payments in our poll below. And feel free to share further thoughts about the technology in the comments section.
Note: You can learn more about NFC in our ongoing series which begins here.
