Electronic wallets have been introduced as early as Year 2000.
Octopus debuted Octopus Card for transportation in 1997 for fast and small transactions. There are more than 16 types of e-wallets in Hong Kong.
Are e-wallets give us more convenience? What is the risk? How do we benefit from this new gadget? What do we need to be careful when using e-wallet?
The speaker will share his insights on this subject.
