An application created by the brand of electronic payments Square allows paying without the necessity to take off your credit card, wallet or mobile phone. Simply giving your name this new development is responsible of everything else. ¿How does it get it?This system is even easier than sliding your credit card through a dataphone, just how we use to do it nowadays. Basically downloading the application and granting the appropriate permissions, it automatically locates you in the commerce or business so that, when you are ready to leave, you just have to say your name to make the transaction.
To do so, explained from the brand new payment systems specialist, only you need to link your credit card to an account, only for the first use. Then, when you arrive to a commerce or business, open an account and just give your name to pay. Like the classic “charge it to my account” but automatically and through a mobile app.
As pointed out the brand product director during the presentation, with Card Case, as it’s named the app, “we have removed the transaction mechanisms, recovering the relationship and conversation between the dealer and its client”.
For now, as reported by Reuters, about 20,000 stores have joined this application in United States in eight weeks: from cafes and bakeries to local farmers in street markets. The system can be used for both iPhone and android smartphones.
