Season 8, Episode 35

Join host Dr. Nichole Huff and guest Rick Sellnow for MoneyWi$e on Talking FACS as they explain what digital wallets are, how they work, and why they can be safer than traditional payment methods.

Topics include:

• tokenization
• NFC and MST technologies
• privacy implications
• the convenience of digital payment methods
• when digital wallets may not be accepted

Key takeaways and practical tips include: most smartphones already include a digital wallet, prefer major providers for stronger security, read terms and conditions to understand data use, keep backup payment methods in case of dead phones or outages, and practice digital literacy to make informed spending choices.
