“An app that enables people to pay in bitcoin for items in-store via Google Glass has been unveiled in the US. Called GlassPay, the app was developed by California-based RedBottle Design. It enables consumers to enjoy some of the convenience of the online buying experience during their visits to real bricks and mortar shops. Google Glass and Android users simply have to scan the barcodes of items in their physical shopping basket, which be added to a virtual ‘shopping cart’. They then purchase the items using bitcoins, which means they don’t have to queue to pay for their goods, nor carry a wallet.”
