Good news for AT&T, T-MOBILE and VERIZON customers! There is a new software for phones, compatible with more headsets. It's called “Google Wallet” for Android devices. The new application will be running on Android 2.3 Gingerbread and up. Google Wallet doesn't require NFC which is a feature most phones don't have. If you want to send money to another person in the U.S.A. then you can send the person money via e-mail, however money sent from credit/debit cards will incur a small fee. It is our opinion that this will make all transactions for small businesses easier. Google Wallet also adds the ability to read and add loyalty cards based on the bar-code or card number. The app also works better with Google Search and Google Offers when it comes to finding deals.
There are some limits to this awesome application. According to AllThingsD, AT&T, T-Mobile, and Verizon subscribers will not be able to use Google Wallet's NFC functions to make in-store purchases. The updated version of Google Wallet is expected to be available from the Google Play Store. There appears to be a iPhone version of this on the horizon as well! Let's keep our fingers crossed!
If you have any questions please feel free to come into our store or stop by Google Play Store and be a part or the app revolution.
