NFC, of course, is near-field communication, and will allow payments to be made by placing one’s mobile device near a receiving point to complete a transaction. This can be done offline, too.

And it’s all coming together with a mobile wallet app they’re calling CoinBlesk. Students at the University will be able to load up their wallets online, or they’ll have the option of doing do by utilizing a bitcoin ATM that’s destined to make its way to the campus.
