PTK Centertel, an Orange group affiliate, is to exploit an already wide acceptance of contactless payments in Poland with the deployment of a mobile NFC programme across the country to join Orange’s NFC trials already underway in the UK and France.

This program, the first commercial NFC pilot in the country, brings PTK Centertel’s customers the convenience of using their mobile phone to securely pay for goods and services at a wave of their handset. Consumers will benefit from Poland’s well established contactless infrastructure of approximately 35,000 acceptance points, notably in fast food restaurants, cinemas, supermarkets and numerous retailers.
