A surprising point about this application for the Samsung smartwatch is that in addition to the user's own information, PayPal displaysoffers from places and establishments close to where the user is. Taking advantage of the GPS sensor to locate it, it is capable of recognizing establishments and finding offers (something that will have to be seen if it arrives in Spain from the first day of launch). So all that remains is to choose one of them and save it to use it when paying to get the discount.
However, the ultimate purpose of PayPal on the Gear 2 is to pay comfortably and safely. To do this, the user must do Check-in or register their location in the establishment.After that, the clerk must upload the purchase order to the user's terminal and the user, applying or not a discount or offer, complete and confirm the process All of this in safely and easily, with just one finger and without taking your mobile out of your pocket.

Of course, we will have to see if the PayPal system is implemented in establishments and premises, since technology is still being used NFC to make payments by simply sliding the mobile through the new dataphones However, it is a point in favor for those who fear that Tizen is a platform empty of content. At least it has been confirmed that Samsung Gear 2 will be able to make payments by PayPal from the first day they arrive at the market.
