[projectvrm] Digital Wallets

[Joe Botha < >]

Hi!

Spotted this:
http://customercommons.org/2013/02/12/wallets-are-personal/

We've been building a Smartphone and NFC payment system
for about a year. The personal data part I think is in
line with VRM ideas, but because of payment system
regulations it would be hard to extend these ideas to the
actualy value store.

What I found interesting about the stats in the table is
that Google, Mastercard, Visa and Square do okay with
awareness but people don't seem to use their digital
wallet. The challange is to give them a reason to use it.

We just raised our second round of funding last week so we
have a long list of improvements to work on - including a
cashless town project (we're building it in a student town
called Stellenbosch). Naturally we'll keep to the VRM
ideas where we can.

If you have ideas about how digital wallets could better
fit with VRM, let me know. I'm also interested in intent
casting (see Gust Finder app - shake it to suggest a meal
nearby).
