Paycock Check does not need a card-reading device, as the entire payment process is completed using only a smartphone camera and near field communication (NFC) technology.
Unlike the card-reading devices, Paycock Check is up to 95% cheaper in terms of operating costs.
Besides issuing cash receipts, the service provides credit card, barcode, and QR code payment options.
Paycock CEO Kwon Hae-won said: “Our presentation and promotion of Paycock’s business model through meetings with Russian IT companies, banks, and investors, for which we received assistance from the Born2Global Centre, led to our signing of the MOU with AEB IT, which had expressed great interest in our work.
