Micropayments now officially supported by PayPal
superticker:
PayPal now officially supports 3 types of micropayments, which include (1) one-time micropayments, (2) pay-as-you-go, and (3) subscription models. One can make payments with two clicks of a mouse without leaving the vendor's website. See this Yahoo news article for more information.
Renegade:
YES~!
That's good to see. I think I need to redo some stuff now. :)
mouser:
Very cool -- thanks for the heads up :up:
koomi:
What about a community site, where micro-payments are made to (potentially) many different users? Is "PayPal Digital Goods" a suitable choice for such a scenario?
superticker:
Instead of using your credit or debit smart card to pay with, Near Field Communications (NFC) chips are now being added to smartphones. It's estimated the new smartphones coming out at the end of 2011 (iPhone 4 maybe) will have them. The Google's Nexus S already does. Now we need to encourage PayPal to process these wireless NFC transactions.
Read about NFC chips in cell phones.
