Dwolla Spots Supports Mobile Payments at Retail Locations
Dwolla "Spots" enables mobile payments for goods and services at retail locations using their mobile devices. Dwolla charges a flat transaction fee of 25 cents per transaction.
To pay a brick-and-mortar merchant, a Dwolla user selects the Spots tab from within Dwolla's mobile application, finds the business on a location-based map, and enters the transaction amount. The funds are sent immediately to the merchant.
