I don't believe this.
- majormajor 4y agoI wouldn't be shocked. QR code to payment website instead of on-site card processing hardware. A new small shop may be trying to run things super minimally. I'm skeptical of the "chain" aspect - a chain is more likely to have hardware and support other methods - but a visitor may not know what is/isn't a chain anyway. OR a particular employ is new or lazy and just didn't want to drag out the hardware. ;)
- colonelxc 4y agoI actually had a similar problem trying to park in a parking garage. I talked to some people working there (they were moving 'event day price' signs around). I asked if there was a kiosk or any other way to pay (other than by phone). They said there was not and said I just had to leave and find street parking. This happened when I was trying to park near a place to get my phone fixed!
- CadmiumYellow 4y agoOver the past year all of the paid parking lots in my city have removed their kiosks and replaced them with QR codes that open a website with a very unwieldy form. Very annoying if your phone happens to be dead or broken or you run out of data or something!
