This made me realize two things: Apple just destroyed the carriers attempts to get a cut of the multibillion $ digital payment pie (in the original NFC vision the carriers were the gatekeepers of the encrypted transactional data and wanted their pound of flesh). Apple Pay sets new NFC security levels (tokenization and biometric I.D.) that all other OEM's and Android will have to scramble to equal.

"Tabbedout, a mobile payment system for restaurants and bars, is now upgrading its system with customer relationship management tools that helps merchants understand who's walking in the door and helps them treat customers better. Now, when a customer opens a tab through the Tabbedout mobile app, restaurant owners can see if he is a new customer or a regular, how much he normally spends and what he prefers to order. Merchants can also receive direct feedback from customers through the Tabbedout app. That allows them to respond directly to a customer or offer a special coupon to thank him or soothe him after a bad visit. And with the new CRM tools, Tabbedout merchants can also segment and target their users. Merchants can send an offer as a reward for a loyal customer or entice a new customer to come back and get back data on how many offers are actually redeemed."
