The central bank of Denmark, Nationalbanken, today announced its new offline payment system which means Danes will be able to pay digitally at the store — even when the internet is down.

This means both credit card payments and cellphone payments go through at the counter up to 7 days into an internet breakdown, because of a new technological solution which is being rolled out at grocery stores first.

Pharmacies will be added to the system later this year.

Alle voksne danskere, der har et dansk udstedt betalingskort fra Dankort, Mastercard eller Visa kan nu betale med deres fysiske kort eller wallets på mobilen i de fleste landsdækkende dagligvarekæder i mindst en uge, selvom der sker et nedbrud i kortbetalingsinfrastrukturen, eller internettet ikke virker.

This Is My Glasgow Jan 29

It's sad to hear reports that this mural of St Enoch and a young St Mungo on a tenement on High Street in Glasgow has been removed during work currently being carried out on the building. The mural was painted in 2018 by the street artist Smug.
