Could this new payment method spell the end for the bank card?
As we become an increasingly cashless society, could we become less reliant on bank cards altogether?
In this episode of Which? Shorts, we explain what Pay by Bank is, and how retailers online and on the high street are rolling this out as a new way for us to pay for goods and services.
And while it works out cheaper for the retailer, given it bypasses the usual card processing fees sent to Visa and Mastercard, it's not without concerns. We tell you what you need to know before making an open banking payment.
