Jakarta, Gizmologi – Not only digital payment methods are now easier with many choices. In using a smartphone, users often want to purchase an application or a special paid feature. But then it is hindered by limited ways of paying, especially for those who do not have a credit card.
For Android smartphone users themselves, there are already many options that can be tailored to personal preferences. Google Play has accepted how to pay via operator credit, DANA, DOKU, ShopeePay to purchasing vouchers from minimarkets. The situation is not the same when compared to the Apple AppStore, as the options are much more limited.
Apart from credit cards, the easiest alternative for those who don’t have this payment method is to use a debit card, iTunes Gift Card to the DANA digital wallet—already available since early 2020. Well, the good news is, now Apple iPhone users can also use GoPay to buy apps, games and more from the AppStore.
