Google Wallet takes over app duties, but it looks like Google is quitting P2P payments.

    do they think that making the consumer keep up with all these pay apps is something the average person is going to actually do? i’ll just use my fucking debit card like i have for the last few decades with no problem

      All I want from the wallet etc is to be able to store everything not only those who have partnered. Let me take a pic of my gym qr tag and store it there too.

      Samsung used to store magnetic strip info and allow for a swipe function. Genius.

        Samsung Pay’s ability to work with standard terminals that didn’t support pay apps was awesome. Idk why everyone hasn’t done that already.

          Because they did not get your information, all it did was repeat the info it had in essence being your card whereas now you sign over your privacy so they can track your spending.
