PayPal today unveiled a new way to make in-store payments with mobile devices. Its latest idea involves the PayPal mobile app, which can be used to display a QR code that is then scanned by retailers. According to PayPal, most retailers could make their systems compatible with this new payment app with a simple software download to their registers. PayPal has successfully trialled this new mobile payment method in Australia. It expects to launch at a limited number of retailers this year, with more to follow next year.
