Breakfast carts with POS terminals show up on Xiamen streets



Recently, photos of breakfast carts with POS terminals on Xiamen streets quickly became an internet sensation and sparked much discussion.

Customers can buy their breakfasts from these Zaolong breakfast carts by swiping their credit cards or bank cards. These Zaolong breakfast carts are mainly seen in Youdian Guangtong Building, Wucun Bus Station and Huang Ze He Wucun shop.

Some netizens said its very convenient because they wont need to prepare change every time while some argue that its much faster to give the vendor cash than to go through the time-consuming process of taking out your card, swiping it, enter the password, and then sign your name. They suggest an e-tong card would be more time-saving.
