Charge Anywhere update turns Nexus S into full-on mobile payment terminal

Processing mobile payments via an external dongle? That’s so early 2011. Charge Anywhere has a less troublesome idea, and if you happen to’re the lucky owner of a Google Nexus S , that you may soon be accepting cold, hard virtual cash via NFC . For those already conversant in the gap, you’ll know that this very company already has applications out for the iPhone, BlackBerry and Android devices, but all of these obviously require a bank card swiping mechanism to be connected. In accordance with CNET, the newest version will include support for the NFC module embedded in the Nexus S, enabling it to be a whole-on mobile payment terminal without a additional hardware required. Both MasterCard PayPass and Visa Blink payments may very well be ingested, but don’t go looking for the update within the Android Market; the corporate’s done with the recent build, however won’t be set free to the general public until it’s ran past larger customers first. We don’t get the impression that the NFC-compatible version will run any further than the $9.99 per 30 days, nonetheless it’s obviously a wait-and-see affair for now.
