Anything at all would be better than the current chip-on-card with my visa credit card. Many terminal with the chip slot will sit there for a while and then say "swipe card". When it does work it seems to take forever. Luckily I've only run into one store, Home Depot, that demands the chip be used.

Does anybody know why the Android Pay rollout in the UK is so far behind Apply Pay (launched July 14)? Also, doesn't it feel like this is the sort of thing you would expect to be using on Android before iOS? (considering it had NFC etc)
