AT&T, Incipio release NFC mobile wallet case for iPhones

January 29, 2014

AT&T has partnered with Irvine, Calif.-based phone accessory provider Incipio to produce the NFC-enabled Cashwrap Mobile Wallet Case for iPhones.

The Cashwrap Mobile Wallet Case enables iPhone users to make point-of-sale payments with the Isis Mobile Wallet, which is operated by a mobile payments joint venture between AT&T, T-Mobile and Verizon Wireless. The NFC-based Isis Mobile Wallet holds participating payment and loyalty cards and offers. The iPhone, of course, is not NFC-enabled.

Incipio said users of its Cashwrap case will be able to tap and pay with their smartphones at participating stores. Payment card information is stored on a DeviceFidelity microSD-based secure element platform.

The Cashwrap Mobile Wallet Case will be officially available in AT&T company-owned retail stores across the U.S. stores for $69.99 starting Jan. 31. It includes a secure element micro-NFC and Micro-USB cable and will fit iPhone 4, 4S, 5, and 5S.
