Future

Although NFC is widely used in peer-to-peer payment systems and data transfer apps, NFC has a
wide range of applications that can make anybody’s life easier.

According to NFC Forum, the next 15 years will be equally transformative for billions of people
that use NFC technology daily.

Some of the key future themes for the NFC Forum include –

1. Allowing an analogous and seamless use of various form factors and standards

2. Ensuring backward compatibility with the existing Forum specifications

3. Amplifying interoperability by relying on standardized technologies

4. Supporting scalable security based on the application or a fixed level defined by the NFC
Forum

This will ensure that the tap and go paradigm will be enhanced to deliver increased opportunities
for the user and support industry efforts to deliver higher data rates and maintain a secure touch
paradigm.

With NFC technology penetrating most industry verticals, its demand will only increase in the
coming years.
