When does FP2 support NFC?

[PatrikDB]

When will the Fairphone 2 support NFC? amongst other to be able to use Android Pay and other use cases.

Afaik there are no plans from Fairphone to create a Module to support NFC.
This is something that would have to come from the community or a 3rd party company.

E.g. a backcover with NFC has been on the wishlist since forever, but I’m not aware of anyone working on it atm. Let’s continue over there if you have further questions or comments.

PS: Or here:

NFC is more than just wireless paying

This message is originally from another thread, i didn’t want to just start an advertisment on the forum about NFC ^^ NFC ils not just about payment, its about superfast Bluetooth pairing, quick file transfer, smart actions, computer unlocking,instant information (for example, in my city, we have NFC tags at bus stop to know when our bus will come)…and more ! Honestly, NFC is the number one thing I’m waiting for my FP2, I had it on my two last phone, it made a LOT of things easier !
