back in the day idk if they do it nemore it worked in this cool way where u would geotag you store and ppl wioth the square app could pay on their phone without itneracting. the app would verify that you were indeed inside of the store and they could ring you up and you could pay without touching things. i think that product went they way of the dodo some time ago and it didnt work quite right back then tho

this google thing is prolly similair but i reckon based on their bomb rear end voice detect thing it does the checkout sig with voice instead of via a swipe like sqeareup did. totally pulling this out of my rear end tho hth

oh and don't even bother asking for "fish", it will never be understood no matter how many times you repeat it. after working in London and Paris for years I actually have a fairly neutral scots accent - the average Glaswegian would be so hosed here
