the only news that matters with the most trusted name in the business this is headlines with

0:13.6

slim fast on the church of laslo yo yo the news well laz, I know you're a guy who says, I won't buy it if they don't accept Apple Pay.

0:26.6

If it says no Apple Pay, then I just get off it.

0:29.6

I hate it.

0:30.6

I'm not going to love you to like credit card information.

0:32.6

I've gone through your website and everything.

0:33.6

I've picked out the thing I want, the color, the size, whatever, and I get to it and it's like express

0:40.5

pay. You know, use pay firm or something. I'm like, what is that? Like a purple button and a PayPal.

0:47.9

Yeah. And in a firm, I'm like, what are we doing? How about Apple pay? Yeah. So then I just close it.

0:54.9

You want it to be convenient.

0:57.2

You don't want to have to log in and do all that stuff. It's like, oh, well, if you don't, you want to use this, then, you know, put in your credit card. I'm like, oh, too bad. You just lost the sale. Just forget it. And I know we don't have a lot of, really, any jet blue flights that come in and out of Kansas City,

0:55.6

but this is a sign. It's got to be of things to come because JetBlue has said, hey, we're going to start allowing people to pay us, to buy their plane tickets, and pay their fees, whatever, with Venmo. Now, I don't know if Venmo is as simple as Apple Pay, but I assume it is. I know a lot of people use Venmo. Snowcom, you use Venmo a lot, don't you?

1:29.7

And you have a Venmo card?

1:31.5

No, I don't.

1:32.6

Do people, when they use Venmo, like, money that's in their wallet to pay at a store,

1:38.4

is it like a wireless thing with their phone, or are they also using physical cards?

1:42.7

There is a way to pay with just your phone right like an apple pay sort of deal sure at some places well you've paid with money in your venmo wallet for step before haven't you no not like i thought you had okay maybe maybe that's my apple pay all the time do you lasso have you ever used venmo to pay for stuff at a store like in a quick trip whatever like i got money in my vimmo account so do you do it wirelessly so you did get the physical card i'm not sure i knew you could do that i thought you i don't maybe you can't maybe it's just a vimmo card i wondered if it was just the card i really thought that you had done that before i don't know why maybe i was thinking of laslo maybe lasso started you get that card and add your add that the card to your Apple wallet. Exactly, that's right.

2:17.8

Yeah. You can put that account, you can get like a virtual card and then put it in your wallet and use it that like a digital. It's all digital. You don't have to wait for something in the mail or any of that. So you're just using Apple Pay basically. So I would assume that being able to use Venmo to pay for stuff is convenient. JetBlue has announced it's the first airline to accept Venmo as a payment option when you book online. The feature is currently available on JetBlue.com and will roll out soon on the JetBlue mobile app. The airline says it's all part of an ongoing mission to make travel more seamless. Well, you know what? If you want to make it more seamless, use Apple Pay. I don't know. Maybe they do, by the way. I don't know what they accept. But try accepting that. The other big one, although I think I've heard Lazzell say, maybe it wasn't Lazzell, but someone complained about using Amazon pay. Because in my mind, I'm like, well, everyone has an Amazon account. So if it says it accepts Amazon pay pay if it's an amazon company or they've got to deal with amazon that makes it easy it does except you got to log in okay someone was like another one more step like literally if i want to buy a sweatshirt i should just be able to be like that's a sweatshirt yeah look at my face click it let's it go it's like use amazon paid and i click on it and it's like

3:24.8

please log in your amazon account i'm like no i won't and you may not and it gives me because most of the stuff i don't need yeah so then it gives me that one second of pause or i'm like you know what i don't need this yeah just forget about it yeah they had more time to think about it yeah so vimmo it seems like a step in the right direction. We're obviously

3:21.8

getting to the point. We're already a cashless

3:24.0

society for the most part. Our paychecks are no longer printed on paper. They go straight into our accounts. I mean, hell at our company, at least I'm assuming a lot of companies like this, we had to get direct deposit at a certain point. Most people had it, but there was a few of us that still wanted to check, just because I think it did give me that moment of like, I'm, I'm sort of holding my money. Yes, it's a piece of paper and it's just, you know, it's printed on there, it's not cash, but it's closer. There's a step here. I go to the bank. I have to cash it. Or deposit it, whatever. Then they just said, you have to do direct deposit. I'm like, okay, well,
