Google wallet is an electronic way to pay for things. When a business creates an account to sell to customers, they have the ability to take electronic payments. This is typically done by entering credit card information. The wave of the future is to use NFC and QR codes. The customer can simply place their phone near the checkout or handheld device of the business owner. The payment is automatically deducted from their Google wallet. The customer can set this up by going to Google and registering for an account as a customer. Many people are already using this way to pay today. While it is more popular in Europe and Japan than in the United States, it is beginning to gain acceptance in major cities across America. Some of the benefits of using this method of payment for the business are that it reduces fraud. The customer does not have the money, then the process will be denied. At this point, the vendor can tell the customer that payment was not accepted. This prevents loss of revenue for the business. The second thing that this does is to allow the business owner to be paid far faster. When NFC is used in place of traditional payment systems, the money is automatically added to their bank account. There is no middleman in between. They have the money immediately. This is far safer for anyone that has small business receiving payments from customers. The incidence of fraud and or reversal of payments are decreased significantly. The business owner makes a profit with far less risk involved. In addition to this, any business of any size, and offer incentives for the customer to come back. This is known as loyalty marketing. When a customer makes a purchase, they are given a coupon or discount. This encourages them to come back again in order to gain this savings. This is proving extremely successful for most businesses. When you add mobile QR code applications and promotions for marketing, it adds on to the equation. People like using their cell phones anyways. This plays on that, and allows the business to make a profit in the process. Using NSC into codes with Google moment today allows the business to benefit and provides the customer savings and some fun. |
