What’s The Deal With Electronic Payment Systems?

Over the last couple of years, the payments processing industry has had a major shakeup. Electronic payments are the new payment form to watch.

It’s hard to imagine that online shopping used to require you to mail a check or money order to the seller. Forget about sending your credit card information in an email.

In 2015, Apple launched Apple Pay. While usage was low at first, it quickly grew the following year. Competitors such as Samsung and Android have introduced their own digital wallets.

In a world where hackers and skimmers have customers and merchants on edge, payment security is a high priority. Digital wallets make transactions secure by removing the card from them altogether.

Credit card credentials are saved in a digital wallet on a smartphone. The customer can then make payments by placing their phone near a reader and authenticating it on the screen.

Many large companies have adopted digital wallets as a method to accept payments. You can even use Apple Pay in some drive-thrus.

Accepting digital payments is relatively simple. Most are compatible with other contactless Point of Sale systems, and they don’t even charge extra fees for transactions.

Credit Card Processing in the Modern Age

Technology is moving faster than ever, and it’s taking credit card processing with it.
