IIRC, RFID=radio frequency ID. Some day soon everything you buy at the store (if there are still stores) will have an RFID tag which means you will check out by simply running your cart by a little sensor that will total your purchases and present you with a bill (or charge it to your card automatically). No need for a checkout person to scan everything.

 

In the case of X, if I understand correctly your seapass card will be an RFID so you will be able to enter your cabin without inserting anything, sort of like your key fob on a modern car. Charges will also be done without swiping. Probably other functionality as well. Who knows?
