I hope that Rogers takes this as a signal to get with the program themselves.  Maybe they will wait for Apple Pay in Canada or Google wallet.    Even RBC has a version of this but not on Rogers.

I want this to come with Rogers.  My phone has the capability, and my bank app does too, but I don't think Rogers accepts it.  I tried activating it, but was told my SIM card does not support it yet.

I just this minute saw the Rogers announcement on BNN.CA.   Now I know my Google Nexus 5 with Lollipop is fully NFC capable although the Rogers announcement doesn't mention it... I'll go there this am to check and get a Sim.
