Coles launches mobile wallet

Australian grocery retail giant, Coles, announced the launch of its mobile wallet, combining a new smartphone app for iPhone and Android, near-field communications (NFC) sticker for contactless payment, and the integration of its existing Coles MasterCard. The Coles Mobile Wallet comes around 18 months after the company first trialled its Coles Pay Tag NFC patch, and is also integrated with the company's Flybuys program in addition to its credit card program.
