You'd think Visa would have just dropped the fees for Bestbuy...or, rather, have given them some sort of marketing dollars to compensate. Also, why didnt BB reprogram the POS to prompt for PIN if contactless BIN range indicated it was a debit card? Amazing.

Of course, it brings up more questions than answers. Is Best Buy starting a trend? Will this impact Visa's approach? What is Best Buy losing by turning off PayWave cards? What is Visa losing by not having contactless acceptance at Best Buy?Most importantly, I wonder what the long term effect will be. Will this move the needle either way?

However, key thing here to note is the proliferation of cellular phones and smart phones. It won't be long until we are all paying via our mobile payments account, and no longer carrying plastic. Just wave your phone in front of the reader, and it will be paid. Exciting things are in the works. With market trends these days, everyone is moving towards contactless payment processing.
