&gt; Many problems related to online shopping cart abandonment can be traced to checkout forms, which can be difficult and time-consuming to fill out...<p>People stop at the checkout forms because that&#x27;s often the only place you actually know the price.<p>There are so many dark patterns adding fees, adding shipping cost, or signup to newsletters, that the only place you know what you will be charged is when you&#x27;re making the payment.<p>It&#x27;s not unlikely that people click through to checkout, just to find out what a thing will cost.<p>----<p>On topic, there certainly are place online where I&#x27;d rather use a browser based payment flow that ideally doesn&#x27;t involve me sharing credit card numbers with a merchant.

I love the consistency and simplicity of Apple Pay, be it online or IRL.<p>I guess this helps to provide a similar experience online, but with support for all payment methods.

I dont know the implementation of this but I have allow website to check for payments disabled. What is to stop every web site from putting this on the homepage or every page? The API says they can get your address info but at least payment info is behind a user prompt.

HN title doesn&#x27;t match article title... payments on HTTPS sites are plenty secure already, IMO. How is this more secure?
