Last year, we saw contactless cards increase the spend limit per transaction from £20 to £30, making it even more convenient and faster for consumers to pay for their shopping. This is not only good news for consumers, who expect varied methods of payments, but for retailers too. The more that customers are encouraged to use electronic payments, the more opportunity retailers will have to collect valuable customer data.

I’ve just read an article titled “Within a Decade, Retail Banks will be Dead”, at the time of reading, it had 2517 likes and 697 comments on LinkedIn. As a result, I assumed this must be great stuff.
