Looking to lighten the load in your pocket or purse?  Consider using a digital wallet like Apple Pay, Google Pay, or Samsung Wallet.  A digital wallet is an app that stores your credit, debit, loyalty and gift card information so you can make purchases with your mobile device. You can use digital wallet apps on phones and smartwatches. The cards uploaded to your device will still have the same reward points and capabilities as your physical cards.  #SimplyBetterBanking #DigitalWallet #CostanzaWallet

So this has to be the most unknown and underrated app on your IPhone but the possibilities are immense. Go to Shortcuts, then at the bottom of the screen click Automation. You can now set up various options and commands on your phone. For example you could set up a geofence for when you leave the office at five and it will send a text message to your other half to say you’re coming home. If you’re being really clever you could set it to boil the kettle when you get to within a mile of your house. Or have it select particular apps when you get in the car. The possibilities are endless, you should try it out.

In todays day in age, it is even easier for small business owners to accept payment for their wares. Take a look at the below from Chris Sims

Considering the size of BTs SME customer base this is a really interesting proposition if it can gain traction.

This is BIG news! 🍿👀 "Apple Overhauls App Store, iPhone Features in EU to Appease Regulators The company reduces App Store commissions to as low as 10% in the EU Devices to support third-party app stores and gaming services." Why is it significant? 1) The mere fact that Apple is going to do it. 2) App Store revenue is a cornerstone in Apple's business besides hardware. If Apple significantly reduces its tax on revenue generated from apps on Apple devices, the app owners can spend that on R&D and Marketing. That is much money to fuel innovation and growth. ❤️ 🛠 🚀 https://lnkd.in/dYBdpi9Z
