ISBN: 9798188423421 - approved: the hidden psychology of how we pay (6 résultats)

Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. Neuware - Every time you tap a card, select a tip, or let a subscription renew, a psychological transaction happens before the financial one is complete.The payments industry says it moves money. In Approved, veteran payments insider Ben Love argues that it has spent three decades moving something less visible: the feeling of money leaving. Drawing on twenty-eight years inside the industry across thirty-six countries, Love follows the transaction from both sides of the counter - from the cardholder's pain of paying to the merchant's unreadable statement and the sales machine built around both.Blending firsthand observation with behavioral science, Approved reveals why cards change what we are willing to spend, why tip screens turn a private choice into a public performance, why 'free' terminals cost merchants, why rewards feel like winnings, and why legacy payment systems almost never die.This is not a conspiracy story. It is a clear-eyed account of the incentives, habits, and technologies that evolved toward frictionless payment - and an argument for honest friction: transactions that preserve convenience without taking custody of our judgment.For readers interested in behavioral economics, consumer psychology, fintech, product design, and the hidden systems behind everyday life.…
