i'm a bit disappointed in wero: they want to be a european alternative, but you can only use it on devices with an operating system controlled by us companies.

i don't understand why they can not make it work in a browser? what are the technical limitations?

Also should work on Fairphone's e/OS.

Which I have, but first I had to give a US company money for the device...

But hey, one step at a time. Progress is progress, but we do indeed need to keep going

They are aiming at e-commerce next so I guess the next step will be handling payments in a browser.

Also, if it's integrated with your bank account, can you sent transfers from you bank's web portal? I can do it with Bizum which is pretty much Spanish Wero.
