The user interaction in the transaction flow is also hideous.If you disagree, take a look at the example transaction flow that they display on their site.
Here's how it looks like it works:
- Take out your phone,
- Enter your phone's password
- Launch the payment app
- Enter the app's PIN
- Take a picture of the QR code that the register displays
- Hope you have cellular signal
- Get a QR code back
- Let the clerk scan the reply code
- Put you phone away
- Receive your merchandise
Compare that to NFC
- Take out your phone,
- Tap the NFC pad with your phone
- Enter the app's PIN
- Put you phone away
- Receive your merchandise
I'm sorry but that dog won't hunt.
