We also briefly touch on the voice biometrics for authorizing payments. Stripe's launch of relay to make mobile shopping easier, and believe it or not - The Kardashians!

Brian talks briefly on how it important it is to secure user data (card &/or person), and compares it to Apple Pay and how it secures it vault. Faisal talks about the repercussions if the same were to happen to the 154 Million cards on file with Braintree, and in the end Mike talks about the psychological effects of hacking. We also discuss how Macy's now offers PayPal to its customers online, in-store and on the mobile. Brian talks about how Android Pay will grow and how every bank will eventually jump on board. It may not be as accelerated or glamorous as Apple Pay, but it will make its mark. Finally, towards the end, Mike's take on Clover Health (a data driven health insurance startup) that raised US$ 100 Million and his perspective as to what this means for the startups in the healthcare and health-insurance arena.Sponsors:Otter Labs www.hireotter.com- Hire great and inexpensive developer with staff augmentation through Otter.Redeeem https://redeeem.click/qdza- Redeeem is a decentralized peer-to-peer exchange that lets you save 15% or more on gift cards using Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies.Learn more about your ad choices.
