Paying on the go is just one of the many changes people are making in their daily lives. Depositing cheques and credit card purchases no longer have to take up large portions of your day.
Services like GoBank allow you to take a photo of a cheque on your smartphone and have it deposited directly to your account. The bank runs solely from its smartphone app and eliminates any need to communicate with an actual bank teller. You can pay bills, check your balance, and order debit cards all through the GoBank app.
Another way to make quick payments is with LAKS watch2pay. The watch uses a small chip and functions similar to MasterCard's PayPass technology allowing you to make quick and easy payments at the checkout.
