Paypal and their gadgets...

Not available in the UK right now.. but does this look like it could be an interesting idea when it is.. even at 2.7% fee per transaction..

I saw that the other day too, looks like a good idea.

After watching the vid.. I did have concerns of someone running off with said android phone when you ask them to key in details.. lol

There's a point, never thought of that one. It would be handy to have though and you'd just have to eye up the customer and make a decision - good payer or scumbag :biggrin:

Shows how un-trusting I am of people really lol.. that was my first thought

I love the idea though.. great for people like me who don't want to have a reader at home as I wouldn't really use it.. but if someone out and about at say a stand or whatever wanted to pay by card.. I could whip out the reader and hey presto.. money taken..

good for outside markets etc... but ho many people will be happy to key they pin number in to someone else phone

This is the thing.. I am assuming that like normal paypal.. this wouldn't be stored
