“I will transfer later”
Money promised is not money received, and who paid what gets lost.
Market traders and mobile vendors
Sell wherever you stand. Get paid however they pay.
A stall, a table by the road or a bag on your shoulder. If you sell in the open, you need payment that works from a phone and records that do not depend on a notebook. That is what Payble is for.
