“We strongly support Near Field Communication (NFC) technology, a service Orange will provide. We will start with Romania, and together with the Tourism Ministry we will release further information in the next weeks,” said Fallacher. He added the NFC technology allows for wireless transactions using mobile phones.
The Orange representative said he cannot say when exactly the service will be launched in Romania.
Orange Romania sales manager Sorin Solcan said the mobile operator is in negotiations with the Bucharest City Hall on a collaboration project regarding the payment of parking fees using mobile phones.
