I keep 3 forms of payment on me for this reason. Phone, card, cash, in that order.
Let's move this along, future boy

The register’s down sir, we can only accept payment in the form of interpretive dance communicating your burning desire for the products.

I’m buying a 24-pack of beer so I guess I’ll communicate my burning desire with some Chumbawamba

That’s a Walmart thing. They wanted to compete with Apple over contactless payments thing and Walmart invested in tech that uses QR codes. No one ever partnered with Walmart so they now use their QR payment tech in house.

How to make people envious of your amazing Apple product: tell them it wouldn’t work and caused an inconvenience for everyone.

well that is at least a 4 yo joke. know a few apple types that would have the manager make it work with their expensive watch just because. Gpay which works now mostly, didn’t work half the time either. I still keep plastic handy. Target now has self-serve reversible checkouts which mostly don’t work. gl getting these to take cash. I couldn’t get this one to scan 3 items. call attendant, yeah I just left items there and walked out. love/hate tech. gl to future boy Image

Honestly I wonder how well these PTP payments would work in my home state considering how now one used them and phones are infomas for not working on top of a lot of places being cash only so I can only imagine how few places can even except g pay
Blackmist@feddit.uk 1 year ago
Does it even use the mobile data for payment?
The establishment taking payment needs to communicate with their merchant provider (otherwise they’d never get their money), but I’m not sure that the phone does. It’s similar to contactless cards, but uses a different floor limit so you don’t need to enter a PIN, as it’s assumed that if you’ve unlocked the phone then you’re authorised to make payments.
creditCrazy@lemmy.world 1 year ago
Isn’t moble data the stuff your phone uses too communicate like the main reason why people don’t use their phones outside in my home state is due to how there’s a lot of dead zones where it can’t communicate no calls, texts or Internet connection. When travailing the only thing your phone really can do is play angry birds and take pictures because the environment is basically forcing your phone to be on airplane mode

How many different payment methods does the world need? Is this efficiency or just another skimming scam lol
s_s@lemmy.one 1 year ago
Skimming works because it attacks 1980s technology.
Contactless is much more secure.
eatthecake@lemmy.world 1 year ago
I tend to view the finance industry as a bunch of skimmers. Funnel money through as many companies as possible so everyone gets a fee.
I was not thinking of security at all.

news about shoplifting loses at all time highs. I’ve forgot a few things in the cart and walked out with them. arrest me. too short staffed to chase down self checkouts. no wonder MBA geniuses. spend a dollar to save a penny
