Uber Simplifies Sign Up Process: Just Hold Up Your Credit Card & Youre In!

card-scanOn-demand black car service Uber is making it easier for new users to sign up for rides, thanks to its newly-announced Card.io integration. For those unfamiliar with the mobile payments startup Card.io (a competitor with Jumio), it's a mobile toolkit that allows app publishers to speed up the process of collecting users' credit card information. Instead of requesting users to fill out forms by typing in their credit card details on their phone's tiny keyboards, Card.io allows you to simply hold up your credit card in front of the phone's camera. The app then "sees" the card, reads the numbers and enters the information for you.
