Interesting.  Have you ever used Google Wallet?  Seems similar but redundant to that.  I've never used Wallet so I'm not sure how it works. 

I hate having a dozen little rewards cards on my keychain.  Would be useful if it could take the place of those as well (I think it can).

I don't use Google Wallet with CC because I don't trust NFC security.  I've tried it with my Dillions card and it failed, but I think the scanner had an incredibly weak scanner (yes I did turn up the brightness on my phone, no I didn't ask them to use their handhelds to scan).  My verdict is still out for promo/loyalty cards until I've used it more.

That card does not look to be using NFC technology, I believe what you're looking at is a magnetic strip that is capable of reorienting itself on the fly, which is pretty badass.

Yeah I was commenting specifically on Google Wallet/NFC.  The loyalty program/bar code reader on wallet for cell phone applications is an abysmal failure with a Galaxy S3. 

One negative about this all in one card is its limited shelf life.  I'm sure depending on use, but only a two year shelf life makes this a limiting factor.  I do love the bluetooth link to your mobile though.
