Tappity taps and that's how it works. 18 00:00:47,040 --> 00:00:49,839 Speaker 2: Well, there's a little bit more to it. So the 19 00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:54,080 Speaker 2: experience means that a merchant can take any contactless form 20 00:00:54,120 --> 00:00:57,800 Speaker 2: of payment, whether that's a credit card or a debit 21 00:00:57,880 --> 00:01:03,440 Speaker 2: card or a digital wallet.

Yes, 32 00:01:31,800 --> 00:01:34,160 Speaker 1: what are you going to do there? Does that negate 33 00:01:34,240 --> 00:01:36,160 Speaker 1: those problems? In other words, when they say it's ta 34 00:01:36,240 --> 00:01:39,360 Speaker 1: expense have to tap and go, does this negate that 35 00:01:39,440 --> 00:01:41,959 Speaker 1: cost for a merchant? Yeah? 36 00:01:42,040 --> 00:01:45,840 Speaker 2: So tax part iPhone businesses cut out the expense and 37 00:01:45,880 --> 00:01:50,280 Speaker 2: the complexity of having to manage and run traditional FPOs terminals. 38 00:01:50,760 --> 00:01:54,320 Speaker 2: By using their iPhone.
