Hey I am not technically minded in blockchain, but do you guys have an online payment system?
Is the QR code function used for online transactions?

Kia ora Dan,
Our primary priority at the moment is to bring payments ubiquity through physical terminal payments. This connects physical infrastructure with mobile enabled payment via Choice. 90% of NZ payments are physical via electronic card (not cash or mobile). We are connecting consumers to the digital future via the latest technology and powered by the NEM blockchain in the back-end. Online integration is part of our longer term integration
Cheers,
Alex
Kia ora NEM whānau!
