Ukusukela oko yasungulwa e-Australia, abafana baseCupertino babengenakuze bacinge ukuba baya kuba nengxaki enkulu ekuphumezeni itekhnoloji yeentlawulo zombane kwilizwe. Iibhanki zisazimisele ukuba iApple ibanika ukufikelela kwi-NFC chip ye-iPhone ukuze bakwazi ukuyisebenzisa ngezicelo zabo, into ecacileyo I-Apple ayizimisele, kuba ngekhe ifumane i-euro kwesi sivumelwano. Isizathu sokufuna ukufikelela kule chip kwi-iPhone siyakhuthazeka kuba ngokweebhanki, ikhomishini efunyanwa ngu-Apple ngentengiselwano nganye iphezulu kakhulu, ikhomishini efanayo kwilizwe liphela.
Ukuzama ukunyanzela iApple ukuba ikhulule ukufikelela kwi-chip ye-NFC, iibhanki zacela inkundla yokhuphiswano lwelizwe imvume yokuhlala phantsi kunye nokuthethathethana ne-Apple ukucela olu fikelelo.Isicelo saliwe. Kodwa ukongeza, ikwalele ukuba bangaqhubeki nephulo lenkampani ngokwala ukwala. Iibhanki ebezenze isicelo sale mvume zezi
Ezi bhanki zase-Australia zaye zacela i-ACCC ukuba ibanike igunya lokuba bakwazi ukubonisana ngokudibeneyo neApple fikelela kwi-NFC chip esetyenziswe kwi-iPhone 6. Oku bekuya kuvumela iibhanki ukuba zenze eyazo inkqubo yokuhlawula eselfowuni, inkqubo yokuhlawula eya kukhuphisana ngqo neApple Pay. Iibhanki zithethe ngelithi eli nyathelo liza kunceda abathengi, nto leyo eza kuthi inyuse ukhuphiswano phakathi kweebhanki, eziya kuthi zivumele ukubonelela ngeendlela ezingakumbi kubathengi, ukongeza kutyalo-mali kwizinto ezintsha.
I-ACCC iyavuma ukuba iibhanki zingacela ukufikelela kwi-chip ye-NFC ye-iPhone, njenge ukwandisa ukhuphiswano lokuxhamla abathengi kwicandelo leentlawulo ezihambayo kodwa ke oko kuya kukhokelela ekugqwethweni nasekunciphiseni ukhuphiswano. U-Apple uhlala echaza ukuba ukunika ukufikelela kwi-chip ye-NFC kubeka esichengeni uzinzo lwesixhobo, kuba sidityaniswe nenkqubo yokusebenza kunye nezixhobo ezifanayo.
