I welcome to see the data that Square is tracking purchases, and if it is, how is this any different to XYZ Supermarket's loyalty program/card, and how are they doing this without breaking any laws.
(Oh, and they've handled $15bn in transactions, sans Starbucks, I doubt they need the moolah!)
- gerbil 13y agoWhat do you mean by show I am working? Projects? Love to, how? As for comparing Square to loyalty cards, I have to give actual consent to the card issuer, with Square, they track me as a customer without permission or consent just because the merchant has done a deal with them.
