- Merchant perspective: PayCash provides their partner companies with an additional scanning device to enable data exchange with the customer’s smartphone. For partners already equipped with hardware such as Apple or Android devices the PayCash app is made available free of charge. Both the reading device and the PayCash app can be installed quick and easy, independently of the existing cash register system. The payment is executed immediately and visible to all users involved in the process – to both sender and recipient.
- Security: With every transaction PayCash‘s electronic wallet generates dynamic data driven QR Codes that are exchanged between users via mobile phone. PayCash app makes this technology accessible for iPhone and Android phones. Due to the simple and easy operating mechanisms and to the fact that no user data such as name, credit card number or account number are transmitted in the payment process, PayCash offers a huge security advantage compared to conventional payment systems.
