    I bet that Ingenico is now charging extra for terminals without contactless branding. So walmart decided they’d see if someone would pay to be the first instead of walmart paying to cover up the branding.

    Did Walmart block mobile payment, and is now selling it as an advantage???

      America didn’t have widespread contactless payments until Covid started. Covid surged adoption here, but Walmart is the only big box retailer holdout left that I can think of. Walmart wants to sell your data, and that’s harder if you use emulated card numbers (contactless payments or Apple-like cards with no set number).
