PayNearMe

Introduction:

PayNearMe was initially known as Kwedit and is one of the more recent ewallets that was established in 2009 by Danny Shader. The company was formed to enable individuals who did not have a debit or credit card to make purchases online by using their network.

The PayNearMe services work on a simple premise that users can purchase online goods and services that accept PayNearMe and pay for them at a different location with cash. When users purchase online goods and services at stores that accept PayNearMe, a PayNearMe code will be generated which the user then needs to submit at any one of the PayNearMe network stores and pay cash for the same. When the PayNearMe code is scanned and the cash is cleared, the transaction is then complete.

There are some online casinos that accept PayNearMe which enable players who do not have a debit or credit card to still play their favorite online casino games and pay later using their PayNearMe code which is generated by the online casino.

The mobile app provides users with step by step instructions on how they should generate their payment code, how to find a store to complete their payment and also to receive confirmation receipts when their transaction is processed and completed.

✓  Payment Charges: PayNearMe clearly specifies its charge in its mobile application so users can be aware of how much they will be charged for each PayNearMe transaction. The fee changes based on the provider but close to 70 percent of all providers charge around $1.99 as a payment fee. Dollar transactions that are of high value will be charged around $2 to $4.
