Visa has announced its plans to deliver Visa payment and payment-related services - including contactless payments, remote payments, money transfer, alerts and notifications - through Nokia's next generation handsets beginning with the Nokia 6212 Classic, expected to be available from this month onward. The Visa applications will first be made available for trial use by interested financial institutions and will allow consumers with the Nokia 6212 classic and a relationship with a participating Visa issuing bank to use their Visa account to pay for goods and services, initiate mobile money transfers to other individuals with Visa accounts, receive near real-time notifications of activity on their Visa account, and to opt in to receive special offers and discounts from merchants. The Nokia 6212 classic includes integrated Near Field Communications chipsets (NFC) which lets the mobile device behave like a contactless payment card.
