TRUSTING MOBILE PAYMENT – Insight into the world of mobile payment services

“TRUSTING MOBILE PAYMENT” by Andrea Bauer
In her new book, “TRUSTING MOBILE PAYMENT”, Andrea Bauer explains why trust is such an important factor in the success of mobile services.

Many people still shy away from using mobile payment options and for most of them there is one big issue: the lack of trust in mobile services in regards to payments. After all, money is not something you want to lose, and everyone has heard horror stories of hackers and cyber crime. Methods of payment evolve constantly. Otherwise we would still be trading with stones. For each change, trust in the new method was a very important factor. Today, hardly anybody thinks twice about paying with a debit or credit card. In her new book, Andrea Bauer has a closer look at what this means for mobile payment providers.

In the various, interesting chapters of “TRUSTING MOBILE PAYMENT” by Andrea Bauer the apparently simple question of the role of trust in the development and establishment of mobile payment services is examined. The author looks at what trust actually is, which functions trust has in the use of technical solutions, and which aspects and determinants of trust are crucial regarding mobile payment services. Her engaging book answer many questions people might have about mobile payments and whether they are trustworthy or not.

“TRUSTING MOBILE PAYMENT” by Andrea Bauer is now available from tredition or can alternatively be ordered by using ISBN 978-3-7439-3423-8. The main aim of the tredition publishing house is to provide young and unknown authors with the chance to publish their own books, and to offer cooperations to publishers and book sellers.

New Indiegogo Campaign Promises to Be More than Just Another Instagram

0
0
Don’t Just Bring It, Ping It—is the new tagline for the photo sharing app “Pingster”. The GPS based photo sharing app is now on Indiegogo to gain the remaining funds required to launch the ambitious application globally.

Sharon, Massachusetts – Photo sharing apps are one of the most popular types of applications for Android and iPhone users. From the social media powerhouse Instagram to Flickr, millions of people are uploading and exchanging photos. Close to 2 billion photos are uploaded to social media and photo sharing sites daily. Pictures are a way of communicating likes and dislikes, emotions, and memories, which is exactly why photo apps are booming right now. Pingster is a new style of photo sharing that shares photos by location rather than by the individual.  According to the designer Nancy Shone, this enables people to share their photos with the world without it turning into a “popularity contest.”

“Right now you have to either know a hundred thousand people or be a part of a hashtag to have your photos seen by others,” says Shone, a video producer and long-time engineer.  “What separates Pingster from other social media apps is that it allows users to share photos and memories with people that they don’t know, may never know, or even people they want to know.”

Pingster uses a smartphone’s GPS to tag photos and tie them to a location.  For example, someone who is hiking by the river might take a picture of a crane they saw from that spot and upload it to Pingster (with or without a description). The next Pingster user who walks by that spot would be alerted that there are photos connected to that location. He or she then can choose to view those photos, hit a “like” of it, or even share one of their own. It creates a history of a location and provides a connection between people who may or may not know each other.

“My friend who heard about the app suggested so many different scenarios for the app that I hadn’t even thought of,” says Shone. “I was thinking along the line of tourists who like to travel, but it’s not limited to cities. Birdwatchers can upload photos. Couples who are in love can document an engagement or even propose using Pingster. Snap a picture of yourself holding a ‘Will You Marry Me’ sign on your girlfriend or boyfriend’s path to work or near their favorite coffee shop and they’ll receive a ping that lets them look at the photo.”

Shone maintains that one of the main reasons she wanted to create an app like Pingster was to avoid the bullying and popularity contests that seem to be embedded in the fiber of other social media sites like Facebook or Instagram.  Pingster, according to Shone, is a way of getting back to basics; sharing photos and creating memories.  The app will rotate photos based on the age of the photo taken, but for those early adopters who support the Indiegogo they will have permanent top spots for select GPS locations as a way of rewarding loyalty. If the app takes off, as many industry professionals believe it will, those early adopters will have long-term advertising for their brand.

“Enhanced Geocoding” algorithm now being referred in Uber and Twitter Patents

0
0

CA – August 22, 2017 – San Francisco based company LeewayHertz developed “Enhanced Geocoding” technology which was patented as #US8538679 to locate physical addresses on the street using a complex reverse geocoding algorithm, which is now being referenced by Uber in their patent #US9389096.

In 2011 while building a sales enablement tool for an iPad, Akash Takyar, the founder and Chief Architect at LeewayHertz invented an enhanced reverse geocoding algorithm. The technology allows a user on the street with the help of an app to see the physical addresses of the buildings around him on a map. An example of the technology could be, a door to door sales person can see the addresses around him in real time and make a go or no-go decision. 

Enhanced Geocoding algorithm is used to determine various physical addresses located on the same street. The module creates a grid around a predetermined location and requests the physical addresses of various coordinate points located on the grid.

Uber has drivers all over the street, and they may be using the technology to identify the customer address more accurately. It could provide drivers and passengers a better experience to find the route.

“It feels good to hear that your invention is being used by reputed companies like Uber and Twitter,” said Akash Takyar, founder, and CEO of LeewayHertz.

Akash Takyar holds a master in computer science degree. He is one of the first few developers who worked on the early days of the AppStore and launched the first few apps when Apple launched the AppStore in 2008.

About LeewayHertz:

LeewayHertz is a reputed enterprise-grade software and mobile app development company. The company is dedicated to solving business problems with designs, apps, and technology. LeewayHertz provides services in building mobile apps, Chatbots, IoT apps, Alexa skills and Cloud solutions. Founded in 2007, the company has developed apps and technology for leading Fortune 500 companies, biggest sports networks, and largest electronic manufacturers.

As of now, the SmartTOP soft top control from the manufacturer Mods4cars is also available for the Ferrari 488 Spider. The retrofit cabriolet module allows the opening and closing of the roof via the car key. In addition, the convertible top can be operated by one-touch while driving.

Las Vegas, NV, USA – August 25th, 2017 – The retrofit SmartTOP roof module for the Ferrari 488 Spider is now available. The newest development from the company Mods4cars provides crafty additional functions thereby facilitating the everyday use of the convertible. “With the new SmartTOP for Ferrari 488, we now support 5 Ferrari models,” explains PR spokesman Sven Tornow. For Ferrari models 360, F430 Spider, California and 458 Spider SmartTOP modules are already offered.

The SmartTOP soft top control is retrofitted in the vehicle. After installation, the roof can be opened and closed from a distance using the existing car key. Pressing a key combination on the existing remote control activates the convertibles top movement. “This allows our customers to open their convertible tops while they are moving towards their vehicle,” says PR spokesman Sven Tornow. There is no need to change the remote control for this function.

In addition, one-touch operation of the convertible top is also made possible while driving. With the installed SmartTOP module, only a tap on the soft top button in the interior is required. The convertible top movement is then executed automatically. This saves time and the driver has both hands back on the steering wheel quicker.

The SmartTOP provides additional features: position of the windows can be determined after the convertibles top movement. All windows can be opened and closed via the remote control. The functions can be configured according to personal requirements.

Starting or stopping the engine does not interrupt the convertible top movement. Thanks to a USB port attached to the SmartTOP module, it can be connected to the local PC and programmed. Programming can also be done directly in the vehicle.

A plug-and-play cable kit included in delivery provides for easy installation. The connection between the SmartTOP module and the vehicle electronics is made by simply plugging in the perfectly fitting connectors. No cables are cut through, which means that a traceless dismantling is possible at any time.

About Mods4cars:

Mods4cars was founded in 2002 from the idea to add a highly demanded feature to the otherwise almost perfect Porsche Boxster: Comfort One-Touch roof operation while driving at slow speeds. The resulting product offered not only that, but also allowed quick and easy installation by just swapping out a relay box, thus leaving no traces and no permanent changes on the vehicle. The first SmartTOP roof controller was born.

The success of their first products in Germany and Europe prompted them in late 2004 to move operations to the USA, to be able to serve the American market as well as all other English speaking countries such as Australia, UK and South Africa from one central location. Their business has grown to a full-fledged international corporation with an office in Las Vegas and a full line of innovative products as well as distributors and installation partners all over the globe.

Being highly specialized in the development and distribution of aftermarket roof- and comfort controllers since 2002 allows them to offer an unsurpassed level of competence and product quality. Their main goal is optimization of each individual product to a maximum in compatibility, usability and intuitive operation. They put greatest effort into development and quality checks of all their products to achieve this goal and meet all expectations of their customers.

The extraordinary success of their products is also based on the great communication with their customers, which usually already starts for each new product during the development and prototyping phase.

Fintech Startup, SavR, Launches Kickstarter Campaign to Tackle Big Problem Head On

Australian FinTech aims to help 130 Million people save money.

This week, Australian based Fintech startup, SavR Inc, launched a Kickstarter campaign to generate support for the upcoming launch of their personal savings mobile app. Designed to tackle the widespread problem of financial stress, particularly a dramatic lack of personal cash savings, the Kickstarter campaign will run until September 23 and is encouraging early supporters with offers including lifetime free use of the app. With plans for release in the US and Australian markets before the end of 2017, the SavR team is excited to be offering a solution affecting millions of people around the world.

C.E.O and Founder Tim O’Shea has stated “almost 50% of adults in the US and Australia have less than $500 in personal savings, which is a very worrying number. We are passionate about building a solution that helps our users solve that problem in the easiest and quickest way possible”. SavR is based on the principle of linking the app to your everyday transaction account, rounding each transaction up to a whole dollar and putting the loose change in a dedicated savings account. This provides each user the flexibility to choose what they want to save for, and how they use the money. Users can save for bills, like car insurance, they can direct their savings to reduce student loans or mortgage debt, save for a vacation or any other purpose they choose.

SavR is based in Australia, and have just secured a new office location in San Fransisco. Founded in 2017, with a dedicated team of Co-Founders, SavR aims to assist everyday users to build their personal savings, and enjoy a more comfortable financial future.

The software tool, which solves the biggest pain points for web designers, soared up to number two on Product Hunt, a website Co-Founder James Rose says is the “holy grail” of websites for product-loving enthusiasts and innovators in the start-up tech space around the world.

The idea for Content Snare came about after engaging heavily with web designers who shared a major problem in common,” said James. 

“90% of them identified collecting content from clients as the biggest bottleneck in their business.That was huge, so we dropped what we were doing and put everything into Content Snare.

Content Snare is a software tool that helps web designers get content from their clients. It is used by hundreds of designers across the world to keep projects on track and make their businesses much more efficient.

“We’re all stoked to see Content Snare battling it out on a global stage with Facebook’s new video streaming product,” said James.

“For a Brissie startup it’s a pretty special result to be mixing it with the biggest and best from Silicon Valley.”

“We had over 5,000 hits on our website in a 72-hour period as a result of this incredible exposure.”

“As the listing gained popularity throughout the day, we received a lot of praise from entrepreneurs and web designers all over the world,” he said.

For example:

Cas McCullough commented “Congrats on executing a great idea that solves a huge problem for web devs.

David Lux said “This one is a great and well-executed idea. I love the simple onboarding design.”

Dmitry Kornyukhov’s comment reads “Perfectly executed idea! I think it really hits a nail on the head and will make chasing clients a lot easier for lots and lots of web-developers out there.

Content Snare is the latest in a successful line of tech platforms emerging from software specialists Aktura Technology.

With a mission to enable businesses to talk to “web developers that don’t suck” Aktura formed their business in Brisbane in 2010.

Snupit users can now find anything from plumbers to CCTV specialists with ease on their phone.

South Africa’s top online portal Snupit has just launched its mobile app. Used by over 2 million people every month, Snupitconnects users to 350,000 local pros and businesses. The app is part of a new strategy that the company implemented earlier this year in January 2017. In development for 3 months, the app is now available as a free download on Google Play.

Snupit’s Chief Executive Officer and Co-Founder, Avinash Samlall remarked about Snupit, “Our online marketplace is geared for local professionals to gain new customers. With the launch of the app, we’ve streamlined the lead generation process and our Pros can respond quickly to customers looking for quotes.”

With speed and simplicity driving cutting edge technology in any industry, the Snupit app seems to have what it takes to take Snupit, already the leading online portal in South Africa, to the next level.

While online portals connecting buyers and sellers are nothing new (Snupititself has been running for 5 years now), the Snupit app adds speed and flexibility in a way that enables a significantly better lifestyle for every user. Whether it’s a soccer mom who needs help planning a birthday party ora person who needs their home plumbing fixed, the Snupit app makes it a breeze.

Mr. Samlall further highlighted the utility of the app for professionals, “The app fits into the busy working days of our Pros, allowing them to receive push notifications and respond to job posts anywhere and at any time. It’s designed to be so straight forward that our Pros can even stop mid-task, view the job details, quote on the job, and get back to work within a few minutes.”

For the pros of course, this translates into more jobs, yetless hassle.Most professionals don’t have access to marketing specialists nor do they have a marketing budget, making the app more valuable.Since pros and small businesses rely on word of mouth and can’t depend on advertising to generate relevant leads, Snupit levels the playing field.

The Snupit app further transformsthe process, and is now the fastest way for pros to get more qualified leads. This astounding simplification of lead generation takes away the biggest pain for professionals. Thanks to the app, they can better focus on their work, while on the other end,customers are able to find the right person for the job faster than ever. It’s a brilliant win-win.

The app can be downloaded from over 200 cities across South Africa from Johannesburg to Cape Town to Durban. An iPhone app is in the works, and is expected to launch in 2 months’ time.

SmartTOP Additional Soft Top Control Now Available for the New Mercedes-Benz S-Class

Mods4cars SmartTOP convertible control system for the new Mercedes-Benz S-Class (A217) cabriolet is now available. The retrofitted comfort module allows the opening and closing of the roof via the original vehicle key from a distance. In addition, the roof can be operated via the interior button with One-Touch. The cumbersome pressing of the interior button is thereby removed.

Las Vegas, NV, USA – September 4th, 2017 – The company Mods4cars now offers a smart convertible top solution for the new Mercedes-Benz S-Class (A217) cabriolet. The retrofit SmartTOP module allows, among other things, the operation of the convertible top via the console button via One-Touch. For the opening and closing of the roof it is thereby no longer necessary to hold down the button continuously. A brief tap is sufficient and the convertible top movement is carried out automatically.

Furthermore, the SmartTOP module makes it possible to operate the roof via the original vehicle key from a distance. Pressing a key combination on the remote control automatically opens or closes the soft top. “The SmartTOP customer can already open the convertible top as they approach their vehicle and start their journey top down,” explains PR spokesman Sven Tornow. A change to the car key is not required.

In addition, the latest development from Mods4cars has numerous additional features: The windows can be opened and closed by remote. It is adjustable whether windows should be raised after opening the top. With the window button in the center console all windows can be closed with One-Touch.

For vehicles with a keyless entry package, the top can be opened and closed by touching the door latch. On special request, the function “tear-wipe” was also added. After the use of the spray nozzles, wipers will wipe once or twice more after a short break.

All functions of the SmartTOP roof module can be programmed according to personal wishes. A USB port attached to the SmartTOP module makes it possible to connect to the home PC/MAC. In this way software updates can be implemented, which Mods4cars provides free of charge.

The SmartTOP soft top control is supplied with a plug-and-play cable kit, which ensures an easy installation. The connection between the vehicle electronics and the SmartTOP is made by simply plugging together. For 100% accuracy, plugs are used in original equipment manufacturer quality. Since no cables are cut through, the cabriolet module can be completely dismantled as required.

Since 2001, Mods4cars has been producing roof control add-on systems for all common cabriolet models. The following vehicle brands are supported: Alfa, Audi, Bentley, BMW, Chevrolet, Ferrari, Ford, Infiniti, Jaguar, Lamborghini, Mazda, Mercedes-Benz, Mini, Nissan, Opel, Peugeot, Porsche, Renault, Volvo and Volkswagen.

The SmartTOP for the new Mercedes-Benz S-Class A217 is available for 339.00 Euro + tax.

About Mods4cars:

Mods4cars was founded in 2002 from the idea to add a highly demanded feature to the otherwise almost perfect Porsche Boxster: Comfort One-Touch roof operation while driving at slow speeds. The resulting product offered not only that, but also allowed quick and easy installation by just swapping out a relay box, thus leaving no traces and no permanent changes on the vehicle. The first SmartTOP roof controller was born.

The success of their first products in Germany and Europe prompted them in late 2004 to move operations to the USA, to be able to serve the American market as well as all other English speaking countries such as Australia, UK and South Africa from one central location. Their business has grown to a full-fledged international corporation with an office in Las Vegas and a full line of innovative products as well as distributors and installation partners all over the globe.

Being highly specialized in the development and distribution of aftermarket roof- and comfort controllers since 2002 allows them to offer an unsurpassed level of competence and product quality. Their main goal is optimization of each individual product to a maximum in compatibility, usability and intuitive operation. They put greatest effort into development and quality checks of all their products to achieve this goal and meet all expectations of their customers.

The extraordinary success of their products is also based on the great communication with their customers, which usually already starts for each new product during the development and prototyping phase.

Join the #21 Doodle Days Challenge with Diane Bleck

Artist, mother and founder of the Doodle Institute, Diane Bleck is starting an online movement based her latest Visual Learning Book titled, “Doodling is Thinking! 21 Doodle Days: A Visual Learning Workbook”. 

Diane is on a mission to is to unlock creativity at school, home and at work. Her hope is to empower people to bring more of their creativity to the way people work, learn and play.

“For twenty years, I have been a pioneer for the Visual Thinkers around the WORLD. I believe Visual Thinking is a powerful tool for critical thinking, problem solving and strategic planning.” 

She has been invited to create large scale visuals for companies large like Google, Coca-Cola, Wired Business, ESPN, TEDMED and even Disney to bring their ideas to life. And throughout her journey people have asked, “Can you teach me to draw like you?”

She was inspired to make the “Doodling is Thinking” book when teaching a doodling course in her daughter’s classroom. The children loved it so much that she began going back every year.  And what was even more amazing, she started teaching these same lessons from the kindergarten classroom to the executive boardroom and getting the same results.

“What I learned was doodling was not about drawing, it was about thinking. We were born to draw and somewhere along the way, we were told that doodling was wrong.”

Doodling has traditionally been defined as scribbling. Diane has created a way to look at the word “doodle”. Doodling is about documenting, organizing and sharing your IDEAS.

Doodling has been recently noted as being therapeutic and relaxing, often categorized with the new trend in “mindful meditations”. It is also recognized by psychology experts and social professionals that most people who doodle tend to frequently return to familiar patterns that they favor. Diane’s book gives readers the option to return to a favorite way to doodle or to explored new ways to express yourself.

The Doodling is Thinking workbook is designed so that as many as possible can join in the fun and get started doodling on their own. Diane hopes that people who enjoy her books, take her online courses and begin teaching their own children or students how to doodle. Her dream is for the doodle book to go full-circle.

Diane realized when teaching the art of doodling that many are at a loss for an idea of what to doodle. That is when she decided to create the book to go with the course. The 21 Doodle Days Course is available at http://www.DoodleInstitute.com. It is free of charge for the month of September. 

Diane (Alicia Diane Bleck) is the author of “Discovery Doodles: The Complete Series”, “You Can Doodle: Building Your Visual Vocabulary”, and the Doodle Girl & Friends Coloring book series. The books are available in softback form on Amazon. Some are through Amazon Prime.

“Doodling is Thinking! 21 Doodle Days: A Visual Learning Workbook” by Diane Bleck is for sale on Amazon as well.

National Small Business Association finds new audience with Road Ahead show partnership

The Road Ahead is a popular weekly podcast for small business owners, hosted and produced by Jared Nichols in partnership with the National Small Business Association.
The NSBA, one of the oldest national business associations in America, is embracing new media with its sponsorship of The Road Ahead show. The weekly podcast, hosted by Jared Nichols, is attracting entrepreneurs from across the country with its unique focus on issues affecting small business owners.

Washington D.C. – September 8, 2017 – The Road Ahead show is a weekly podcast hosted by futurist Jared Nichols. The show’s focus on issues facing entrepreneurs today was a natural fit with the National Small Business Association (NSBA), says Nichols, referring to the association’s presenting sponsorship.

The show format is Nichol’s interviews with high-profile business thought leaders.

One of the early guests was Lolly Daskal who spoke about how small-business owners can enhance their performance and make a meaningful difference in their companies, their lives and the world. Daskal outlined a program she has developed, based on a mix of modern philosophy, science and nearly thirty years coaching top executives to help her clients produce exceptional results.

(Show recording: http://www.nsba.biz/?p=12363)

Daskal is one of the most sought-after executive leadership coaches in the world, and is considered a Top-50 Leadership and Management Expert by Inc. Magazine.

The NSBA, celebrating its 80th Anniversary in 2017, the Washington-based organization continues its mission as advocate on behalf of America’s entrepreneurs. A staunchly nonpartisan organization, NSBA’s 65,000 members represent every state and every industry in the U.S.

The popular podcast has attracted an audience of thousands of business owners, and the NSBA is enjoying the exposure their sponsorship of the weekly show gives them to this “new group of potential members,” says Nichols.

Modern, effective leadership is a topic that has been the focus of several episodes. Dov Baron, a best-selling author and leadership speaker, was featured in an early show where he discussed with Nichols what it means to be an authentic leader in the 21st Century, and what skills, attributes and characteristics are required to be a successful and effective small business leader.

(Show recording: http://www.nsba.biz/?p=12429)

Host Nichols says he also seeks out businesspeople, not just authors and speakers to be guests on the show. An example is Richard Consoli of Cross Company. Nichols interviewed Consoli about the importance of strategic planning for small business, and specifically why it should not be a tactical approach. Consoli, president of integrated systems at Cross Company, a company specializing in technologies to improve machine and manufacturing process performance, is an expert in utilizing industry data to help develop sound strategic plans and help businesses react to various business cycles.

Strategic planning is a theme Nichols is uniquely qualified to explore. In addition to hosting The Road Ahead, Nichols consults with organizations across the country as a deep futures expert and principal of the Jared Nichols Group.

The Road Ahead, presented by the National Small Business Association, America’s small business advocate, is available on iTunes and SoundCloud (https://soundcloud.com/user-812246269).

INIE Belt: A Smart and Fashionable Belt That Monitors Users’ Health

0
0

Hong Kong, HK – On August 25 2017, INIE BELT launched a Kickstarter campaign for their innovative and stylish belt that doubles as a wearable device to monitor your health, notify you of missed phone calls, and help you find your phone if it gets lost.

“We have designed our INIE belt with the vision to incorporate technology into everyone’s daily lives,” the creators explain. “A simple yet fashionable leather belt is used by most of the corporate working population, for both men and women. Combining technology and an everyday use item, our team strives to create this innovative belt with cutting edge technology and high-quality material.”

The INIE Belt has five core functions that backers can get excited about. This belt 1) counts and records your steps, 2) alerts you to how much time you spend idle throughout the day, 3) alerts you when your smartphone is out of sight, 4) uses built-in vibration to alert you to phone calls, and 5)has a replaceable and rechargeable battery that can work for 2+ years without being charged.

Simply put on the INIE Belt and it starts tracking automatically. Users can easily view their statistics via compatible Android and iOS devices and keep track of their progress. These wearable belts are made with care in different styles for men and women. They are designed to inspire us to stay active.

Along with the easy to use mobile app, the INIE Belt provides us with valuable information about our health and daily activity levels. The INIE Belt also allows us to stay connected with our smartphones via a wearable that is subtler than a smartwatch or having our phone glued to our hands.

“Without carrying or wearing any additional items, simply wear the INIE belt in your daily lives to keep track of your daily activities (both active or idle), monitor your health and provide alerts to avoid missing phone calls or misplacing of mobile phones,” says the team.

In exchange for pledging to the project, backers can gain access to a variety of rewards including one or more INIE Belts at exclusive Kickstarter discounts of up to 70% off the retail price.
