G+_Ken H Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 Originally shared by Paul Werner No, just no. Can we please stop all this Target & Walmart? Nobody wants to use your apps for contactless payments when we have a fully functional app built into our phones via Android Pay, Samsung Pay, or Apple Pay. This is like CurrentC/Softcard/Isis all over again. It failed before with good reason. Do not rehash this. Glad Meijer doesn't force this down peoples throats. http://www.engadget.com/2015/12/18/target-mobile-wallet-payments/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_George Byers Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 I'm acutally quite please pleased. If Google isn't competent in bringing Android Pay to the UK, then let the banks and stores do their own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Paul Werner Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 George Byers well from that standpoint I can see that but over here in the US when they do this they also prevent users of Android Pay and others from using those methods. I really wouldn't care if they didn't lock you into their apps. I don't want 12 different apps depending on which store I find myself in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Gary Volk Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 I would rather have this through my bank or credit card and not Google or any other third party. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Paul Werner Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 TwoBit Gary I guess it depends on the bank. For me Chase Pay that will soon be out is inferior to Android Pay (as it's described anyway) so I would rather not use it for contactless payments. If you're saying that due to security though, I can only speak to how Google protects your info in regards to contactless payments and it is top notch.

G+_Gary Volk Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 Paul Werner I guess I'm more concerned with Google knowing what I buy and knowing too much about me! Maybe that's just my tinhat moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Paul Werner Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 Haha, totally. I already gave into the Google Overlords apparently Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
