In Sweden we have a new verb - 'to swish'. I will 'swish' you 50 kronor later. Swish is an app for micropayments. Everybody (except a few old people) uses it. It is even on windows phone!
I was at a 2 km long yard sale at the weekend. Everybody took swish and almost everybody paid by swish.
Swish is coming - and it's not back by Nike, but by the banks (Swish is owned by all the banks here).
- Yetanfou 9y agoNot everyone uses Swish, there are some holdouts. I'm one of them actually, for a variety of reasons. First of all I do not trust mobile devices enough to allow them access to financial resources. It is not clear where the liability lies in case of erroneous or fraudulent transactions. I'm also a holdout against the cashless society as I do not see the need for my financial transactions to be visible/traceable/mineable/monetizable by 'interested parties'.
