I think the Apple Pay vs. Android Pay war will be a game changer (in Android's favor) in the coming years.

Apple has a hold on the US market, because we ARE more affluent. It is a status symbol.
Samsung has the right idea on the pay system. Forget NFC, use the mag stripe reader. Compatible with 90% of readers as is.
