PayPal is trying to start a new way for consumers to shop. You will no longer need cash, a check card, or even a wallet. PayPal is trying to get cell phone company's to invest in their new way to shop. You only need your cell phone. On your cell phone is all your account information. You can literally scan a product on your phone and it can even tell you if you can buy it cheaper online, if not, buy it there using your phone. The problem many are running into is shoppers find it just as convenient to pull out a piece of plastic and swipe it through a machine, without all the pricey gadgets a cell phone company would make you buy to use the product, although PayPal says its service makes the checkout process more convenient and secure for both shoppers and merchants.
I don't think I'll be buying into this product. It sounds like it would get very expensive and doesn't sound all that more convenient. Although it maybe safer to use this product, I'll take my chances.

Agreed, not a fan of that idea. I will stick with the card or cash status. I feel that this new PayPal idea is going to cost more then it will get in return, but who knows.
ReplyDeleteYea, they say it's safer, but i've never had a problem without it.
I think that I will stick with regular shopping using my debit card. This idea is definitely interesting, but I'm not sure how comfortable I feel about purchasing items with my phone. It just doesn't seem like it would be the best way to keep up with your purchases. I also feel like it would have me second guessing myself a lot while I shop, and I already do that too much as it is.
