Value proposition

#1 for B2B news, analysis and educational resources on payments, transit ticketing, NFC and contactless, and beyond...

We are the #1 provider for B2B news, analysis and educational resources for senior executives and technical specialists looking to build next-generation solutions that meet the needs of today’s contactless world.

We also produce Contactless World Congress, a new kind of event with a year-round program of activities that anyone can participate in from anywhere in the world, at any time, free of charge.

Our readership reaches right across the contactless ecosystem, from banks to mobile network operators; transportation providers; government and employee ID issuers; handset, consumer electronics and IoT device makers; retailers; vehicle manufacturers; brands; regulators; investors; solutions providers, and more.

Readers come from a mix of technical, business, and operational backgrounds and are typically very senior — 69% of our readers are management level and above, and 25% are in the C-suite. Further, our readership spreads across the globe, with one-third based in the Americas, one-third in Europe, and one-third in Asia Pacific and beyond.

Our company was founded in 1988 to cover the then-nascent smart card industry, and moved on to produce trade newsletters, research reports, and events around biometrics, card technology and customer loyalty. We have been publishing NFCW since 2008. Our editorial team is led by Sarah Clark, an editor and analyst with more than 30 years’ experience tracking and reporting on the business implications of emerging technologies.
