Topping up with a touch screen phone with a voucher

[Anonymous]

Not sure if this has already been mentioned.

How about when you buy a top up voucher, it has the code, but also has a qr code, so you scan the code instead of typing it in?

No more input errors. Just as quick as using the last 4 digits of your debit/credit card. I no longer use my card due to being a victim of fraud.

So I go to the shop, buy a voucher. Start up my top up app and scan the barcode/ QR code. Job done.

Just an idea But if you haven't thought of it you seen it here first

Very good idea, using an O2 Wallet card offers good protection too.

Hmm, I like it. Im not sure the majority of customers would know how to use a QR code however that shouldnt get in the way of progress. Personally I hope to one day see NFC-topups (when the tech is more readily available)

It's a great idea and hopefully eliminate entry errors. In days gone by I have been the lucky recipient of someone else's mistake. People are growing up with QR readers and bar scanners these days so I don't think people will have any trouble adopting technology.
