As you head out the door today, imagine how freeing it would be to leave your wallet at home and just use your phone for any purchases. That vision is one step closer to reality with today’s launch ofIsis, the exciting, new mobile commerce platform.

Isis makes mobile commerce possible for consumers and merchants through the use of near field communication (NFC) technology. With Isis, you won’t have to carry around that physical credit card — and you can transfer a lot more personal necessities from your wallet onto your phone, thanks to secure NFC services.

Merchants can also use Isis to offer discounts and loyalty perks in new creative ways, which means you can easily save more when shopping at your favorite stores.

Starting today, T-Mobile customers in Austin and Salt Lake City can get an Isis NFC SIM card for their smartphone at no charge in T-Mobile retail stores. They can then download the Isis Mobile Wallet from Google Play1 and begin moving their money onto their mobiles.

At launch, T-Mobile will support the Isis Mobile Wallet on three of our innovative smartphones: the Samsung Galaxy S® III, Galaxy S® Relay™ 4G and Samsung Galaxy S® II. By the end of 2012, the HTC® Amaze™ 4G and Samsung Galaxy Note II will also support Isis Mobile Wallet, and we look forward to including the capability in even more handsets in 2013.

If you’re in Austin or Salt Lake City, download the Isis Mobile Wallet today or visit any of our stores in these cities to be eligible for $10 of free Isis eCash when you activate Isis Mobile Wallet. Learn more about paying with Isis at http://paywithisis.com.
