Kansas-based tech firm Garmin has rolled out its digital wallet, Garmin Pay, to the US, Australia, and six other countries. The new service is available for Android users only, but it will be coming soon to iOS as well. Garmin’s system, which is powered by the FitPay payment platform, also utilizes NFC (near field communication) technology, allowing users to make a payment without having to reach for their handset or wallet. However, only MasterCards issued by Bank of America, Capital One, First Tech Federal Credit Union, BECU and US Bank can currently be added to the wallet. More institutions are expected to be added to the roster soon.
