    I would’ve loved to have a paypal alternative if so many damn services would adopt them.

    And no I’m not talking Google Pay or Apple Pay. They’re just as bad.

      How is Apple Pay just as bad? I haven’t heard anything that they do like this. There is no advertising in the Apple ecosystem. In fact, several places (like Walmart) don’t want to adopt the tap to pay because for some cards, it blocks tracking from them by using a pseudo randomized credit card number every time. It makes using the rewards for places a pain, but it works at maintaining harder tracking for whoever you’re paying.
