Front end developers bear the responsibility for this nonsense, and many of the guilty post in this very forum! There is nothing in what you described that couldn't be accomplished with late 90s-era technology. Why is an app needed? A simple web page with basic HTML, enter number plate or space number, enter payment info, submit, done. No browser features introduced in the last 20 years are needed. The only improvement is enhancements to security - so we're up to TLS 1.3. Do we really need spinning pinwheels and bleeding edge web standards to process a simple payment?
