The fees associated with card payment often leave small businesses feeling the pinch, so the 'Robinpay' app is intended to help eliminate intermediary parties in favor of a fee-free experience. The app is intended for use in the UK and Europe, where payments could be initiated from the customer's bank account with permission but without the need for a credit card or debit card. This would work to effectively eliminate fees for businesses while still providing shoppers with a convenient way to pay.
The 'Robinpay' app is focused on reducing the high fees associated with card transactions that can cause harm to small businesses while also providing them with a ready-to-use digital loyalty program and pass on some savings to customers.
